I think he meant he was late to the game.
Ahh I see, I was a bit confused lol

The first thing that jumps out at me is the ratios of mother and clone space to veg space to flower space is very disproportionate. U can probably get aqay w 1 20fter for moms, clones and veg for 2 flower ones...Starting to pick equipment and planning out a shipping container grow.
Start out with 1 of each container and then later on add more 20' containers, I believe 1 of each 10' should support a good amount of 20' containers. when adding more 20' containers stagger the harvests for a more frequent harvest. The end goal would be enough 20' containers to harvest every week, if possible.
20' containers:
1 for clones/mothers
1 for veg
1 for flower
10' containers
1 for trimming
1 for drying
1 for curing/storing
everything is going to be sanitary and ran like a lab. so masks/gloves/suits anytime when handling plants/flower or inside a container. the goal is to run as close to a perfect environment as possible. also I should probably give the disclaimer I get ocd about anything I design/build so it may be way overkill but that's how I like things. Im a fairly capable at designing/building things and I feel that I have done a lot of research and have a good understanding of how everything needs to work. so I think I can pull this off successfully no problem but I could be wrong it could be a sh!t idea and i could be a full on dumbass idk but ill find out. its still in the planning phase, and ill be posting all of the progress on here as I decide on equipment and work on the design. so far I have most of the equipment picked out but its all just preliminary and im open to changing some of it up, everything i picked out was just to get an idea of what it would take/cost. been working on the model as well so ill post pictures of that, ill list out some of the equipment specs im just not 100% on every little thing yet.
I cud tell!Ahh I see, I was a bit confused lol
Why not just build a rm inside the warehouse?
Yeah that whole hazmat suit in the grow rm shit is gonna get old quick-containers are easier to make sealed and more sealed at that
-easy to move if need to move to a new warehouse
-containers are the perfect size space i want for each environment, I like many small ones all sealed from eachother incase of any contamination
-if I have my cooling fans on the side and not the top, I can stack the containers
-security
-I'm weird

Maybe for most people, but I obsess over things like that so for me its more like its ocd forcing me to do it and I dont have the will power to say no lol. Who knows maybe I'll hate it but in the past ive usually had no problems with things such as this, because like i said my obsession with doing things as perfect as I can keeps me from getting tired of doing it
Wud knowing that its completely unnecessary keep u from doing it?
Inside a building, then no worries bro, worry is when sitting outside in the sun, all that metal acts as a heat sink , hence the commentsThe containers will be inside an air conditioned warehouse. Everyone that keeps saying I will need ac, the chiller is my ac for the grow environment, i will add as many radiators as necessary to keep temps down. From research it seem chillers are more efficient than conventional ac. the lights will be ran at night and the intake for cooling them will come from outside and be filtered so that will help with temps. Its a sealed environment with co2 ~1500ppm so im looking for temps in the low 80's. I dont see why a sealed container inside an air conditioned building with get any hotter than a sealed room, please correct me if I'm wrong though. Also to say alittle late to the game is funny, I bet guys that were growing for 20+ years before you started thought you were late to the game. I dont understand what you're getting at there.

Yes, I was late to game 7 years ago. Meant it more like good luck because the market blows! I'm sure you'll do good tho!
went in first live in tent,60 days later you can get a sea hut ,after a year you get a container,i preferd the tent myself,thousands of containers above ground,i have thought about 1 underground though hhaha,dont know what they go for state side ,i would go under ground just from fires,ive seen a hundred if not thousands burned to a crispI’d kinda like to hear about that! You lived in a shipping container underground, overseas? Can I ask why? Just curious and sounds interesting.....
Here’s how I laid out my 40’ high cube
View attachment 813984 View attachment 813985 When I first built mine all my buddies w their big shops scoffed at my idea....
After the first harvest they all wanted me to build them one..... sure, 50k not a dime less. No hotter than a steel clad building, of course you must insulate it just like any other climate controlled space. I framed mine in w 2x4s 24” OC rockwool r14 batts in walls r22 ceiling and sheeted w osb and coated w about 10mil of elastomeric
i been dreaming bout doin an underground container for years! not sure how to explain it tho, if its legalized here i will have 1 within the week :cry:went in first live in tent,60 days later you can get a sea hut ,after a year you get a container,i preferd the tent myself,thousands of containers above ground,i have thought about 1 underground though hhaha,dont know what they go for state side ,i would go under ground just from fires,ive seen a hundred if not thousands burned to a crisp
does seem like a big first setup:cry: but hit me up if you get it goin ill be keen for looksy:smoking:40 footer is badass, I only went with 20 so that I can fit them inside a small warehouse
