Awesome room man! I am planning on doing the same thing. How does the panda do with keeping the heat in the room?? I grow in a garage that stays a constant 52* never any higher, never any lower so I need to be able to keep it warm in my room... Thanks!

Great thread; I'm getting ready to build four of these for the warehouse I'm about to move into. Mine will be a little beefier because I'm planning to set up verticals and RDWC in two of them. I'm thinking this is the best way to divide the 2000 sq ft... Open to suggestions, however. Peace

Sun Simulator This beats paying grands for those big secret jardin tents, to think I actually had it on my shopping list.
Now I dont have much experience in carpentry but Im willing to give this a shot.

Now a few quick questions:

All the planks which are attached to the ceiling are they simply mounted with screws?

They seem very sturdy are you using any strong hold adhesives as a precaution?

Im assuming they are screwed on to the beams of the ceilings, so what method or instrument do you use to find the ceiling beams & avoid contact with any non visible live wires?

Thanks SS.

Well done Suns! I built mine 2 years ago the same way and I still got it in use. Although mine doesn't look as perfect as yours it serves it's purpose.

Hey thanks everyone ,

Yea im telling ya these rooms are really cheap to build ,,
If you guys can give me a fews days i will Draft you all some blue prints , I'll do frame prints and i'll do panda instructions on how to stretch it !

Sufr , to keep the room warm at night ,, i bought a small lil heater ,, like the lil desk heaters or a lil foot heater ,, you can see it in the pic ,, IT has thermostat you set it to temps u want and it will kick on and heat the room up ,, their safe and effective . 25 bux i think it was,, or if u use a dehumidifier which u prolly will need one due to the temps from inside room to outside garage ,, this will cause condensation ,, so u may need a dehumidifier . The dehumidifier will heat the room enough for ya.
here is a pic ,, if u look closely u will see the heater.

Hey Sun; I found a cheap source of the styrofoam insulation they put on houses (we used to call it celotex or something like that). It has a reflective side and a white side; I think i'm going to install it on the inside of my framework and then wrap the outside with cheaper plastic than the black/white poly. Should help with insulation and CO2 leakage, I'm thinking. Any thoughts? (I can get 4x8 sheets of this stuff for $4 each).
