Looking good so far. What type of lighting equipment will you use? What are the dimensions of room after installing all the insulation plywood etc. and what type of system will you go with hydro or soil?

Looking great and making me more jealous by the day. I wish I had the room to build a stand alone grow building, that would be a dream come true. Unfortunately it does not look like that is in the cards any time soon, but hopefully within the next year I can get a proper room built out.

Venting is the key to survival in an enclosed space with TPO glueing:)

Will veg be part of the room as well?


The most efficient layout for a room this size would be a 3x3 9 lighter. And still leave some space for you to work in. I have 3 tables 15ft long by 4 ft wide on wheels. 1 ft off each wall and 1/2 ft isle between them for better airflow. Can be pushed to create. 1.5 ft isle any side. Plants grow to be about 5ft tall on avg and can yield 130 to 165 grams per plant with a root system of a 6 inch Hugo block on top of a uni slab. 90 plants total. Lights mounted as high as possible and tables 1ft off the floor. Giving you a clearance of 36 inches above tops. Par right under 1000 micro mols on tops at full power. With a few wall fan mounts lightly hitting tops and the vflow air doing the main air circulation. And the rest of the items needed for a dialed in room. 5 ton AC split system. Industrial dehumidifier. Humidifier set with. Vpd controller, nest thermostat to control AC via WiFi. Gavita controller. Co2 burner or co2 tanks. Exhaust with charcoal on roof to help with humidity and clearing of gases in room with passive hepafilter on bottom.

A 3x3 or 4x4 or 5x5 type of Gavita 1000 de setup provides the most optimal cross lighting possible for best results.

Lights 2.5 ft off wall 5 ft apart from each other measures from center of bulbs. Wide angle beam from left to right of tables for better depth penetration of par inside canopy. 5 ton AC should do it and get you through the hot summers. 4 ton maybe only winter.

Yes, veg in here to. Flower room will be 14x10.
I’ve got 2 choices on my cooling options. I’ve got a 3 ton split system, Mitsubishi Mr.slim. Or a 4 ton carrier package unit that also has heat. But if I want to utilize the heat at any time I have to change it over to propane.

If it gets cold up there the larger option with heat is always better just like a propane co2 burner used in sealed rooms you will need burp room a couple
Times a day for few minutes and exhaust at dark cycle to manage humidity and gases. All my rooms have a heating system and don’t go under 68 degrees on night cycle for first 7 weeks

A 6 lighter 3x2 should meet that room space requirement

On second thought now that I think about. It's a 4 light Gavita fixture to light that room at 1150 watts each. Given a 10x14 room you need canopy 1 ft off walls on all sides. you get a 8x12 canopy space. 900 micro mol in the interior area.
