From The Ground Up, Let's Go!

[Billyboat]

@Garden of Dreams appreciate the hook up on some kick ass builders!

Update time...
I've hurt my back so building this solo was out of the question...

12.5' ceilings are tall, really tall!

2x6s are really heavy.

32' wall section is hard to stand up with only 3 people.

The 54' wall is really long..

LVL beams are even heavier!

Did I mention how tall the ceilings are lol?

Cheers

Yes sir! Mad props to the amigos!!

And we made the rooms a little bigger, so I can have more isle space.

 

[Billyboat]

82" door frame...for size...

 

[john martin]

This is gonna be one legit setup when your done bro, I'm gonna have to keep an eye on this :)

 

[Garden of Dreams]

Boom!!!! Glad to have been a help!!!

 

[Billyboat]

All the framing is done...

Went ahead and framed the ceiling of the entire space, hallways will be nice.

Doubled up every other joist on the side the ac's are going to hang.

Hanging everything from the ceiling so I can keep the floor space open.

Thanks!!
I'm working hard to get to that level, one grow at a time. I'm now thinking about running 20 de's horz and some vert bulbs in the big room and since we made the other room bigger I should be able to fit 9 de's in there.

I'm going to be busy as a bee the next few months!

Thanks for the kind words. I have learned so much on the farm and I feel it was my duty to post some of my grows and show people that if you set your mind to something, it can be achieved.

I start prolothearpy for for my back after thanksgiving, I messed it up changing out a Can 150 that was hanging from the ceiling, I lost my grip and dropped it, I should have just let it fall, but I tried to save it and thats what got me.

Thanks brotha! They will have built this whole place in a few days, 2 guys working very hard.

I hate drywall so we used 1/2" OSB instead!
and we doubled up the OSB on the side that is near that big garage door.

I'll be doing the rest of the work, paint, lights, electrical etc.

Should be a fun weekend!!

Sound pretty bad, u need a couple people to put it up and take that down, the 150s are dam heavy, I know ur a one man army bud dam bro, u don't want to be out if commission and in a bind with the setups u run.. Best of luck on your recovery, @Garden of Dreams hooked u up wit some good peeps.. Looking good from here..

 

[Billyboat]

15,000 nails
12,000 staples
4,000 screws
350+ pieces of lumber

And we are built!!

2 flower rooms built, CHECK!
24x12 dry room built, CHECK!
Even added an access panel to the "attic"

Some of the best builders I've ever had the pleasure to work with!

Going to take a few days off, rest up, do some gardening at my other place, and start painting and running all the electrical next week!
I have 45 gallons of paint/primer!!

We only had 6 pieces of lumber left over!
