I can't help but wonder what sort of security issue would stop you from growing inside your house but unhidden- and yet hiding the grow in the same place makes sense. Not my business, just curious.
The advice you've gotten already sounds top notch, and way over my head! I'm taking notes for when the time might come for me to get quiet.
Good luck and I'll be subbed for the action!
To be honest, we would much rather set up in another spot, but unfortunately we had some financial set backs and that doesn't seem attainable at the moment.
I've been a bit coy about the "security issue". Bottom line is the police paid us a visit last year and we haven't grown since.
Some of you will undoubtedly, and perhaps rightfully, call me crazy for growing in the same spot. That's why the exceptional focus on stealth.
My goal is literally to be able have the room go undiscovered during execution of a search warrant, if that were to happen. We really doubt that will happen - it's been nearly a year since our visit - but better safe than sorry. Realistically, I don't see the task force having the funds or attention span to be looking back at us a year later just in case I'm up to something again. They have plenty of leads to follow and work mainly off of tips - they had one on me last year due to a stupid security lapse on my part that will never happen again, and the person responsible (and every last one of his friends/associates) has been 100% extricated from my life for over a year.
As soon as it's financially viable we will be getting a trailer to outfit and parking it in some industrial storage type space.
Anyway, picked up the Roxul insulation today. I wasn't sure if the Safe'n'Sound or ComfortBatt would be better, but only the Safe'n'Sound was advertised as a sound-proofing material - it's just that the Safe'n'Sound has an R-value of 0.
Here's a pic, it's no heavier (not noticeably) than standard fiberglass batts. Each pack is 48 feet long (twelve 47" batts) and costs $35. For $150 I will be able to insulate each of the four walls and triple layer the ceiling and I'll still have leftovers in case I need to make a fan box or duct muffler.
