Looking good.
I wouldn't worry about foaming the 2x4s, as it's gonna be sealed up after you install the vapor barrier, drywall, muding, and painting.
Drywall is cheap, so why not double that wall up?
Keep it up!
Did you find the gavitas in stock anywhere?
Germinator is spot on with the vapor barrier suggestion..those cinder block walls will sweat like a mofo and mold like crazy behind your walls. I would probably put a layer of rigid insulation on the cinder wall and then a stud wall with rock.Wood studs are a total pain in hte ass for a long term setup but if you are there for just a year or so you'll be fine...I would use green rock on your lower 4 feet to cut down on mold in the walls...do you have to pass inspections? none of that will fly in a commercial build out that has to be inspected by the city.
AC goop will work just fine on the individual 2x4's.
My .02....Maybe add a layer of visqueen between your drywall n insulation on the common walls.
my pleasure DabAlways neat watching a grow room get put together specially one like this from the ground up!!! :D
Thanks for sharing look forward to the finished pictures.
Shit sorry I thought it said whorehouse,I always wondered how they sealed them up:)
Rigid insulation for sure. I skipped that on my first commercial building and regretted it. Never heard of green rock, will have to check that out. Why do you like metal studs besides fire code?

Forgive my ignorance but what do you mean by this? I just started using some metal so learning the tricks.And screw the soft side first. Nice build!
