If you haven't installed the SR already I might suggest a sheet of soundboard underneight that. I then lay a bead of silicon then install my sheet rock. Use gaskets on all outlets,underground wire nuts and wire. costs a little more but if this is your grow room the more you can add here the better/easier it will be for you. I also use tamper-proof screws on install, it can save you a lot of equipment. You would not believe how lazy the fucks can get. I run 6.5k btu per 1000k lights. Over kill in the winter but needed for fineass herb. more floor fans the wall fans. Good coats of paint on floor and wall to make clean up easier between cycles. Invest in a killer first aid kit. It will always be on the weekend and when you are broke when the shit hits the fan. Run a humidifier a few days in your flower room before you transfer your girls. Run 1000's in you veg room so you do not get what people call lumen shock, they waste so much time here and stress their girls. Have a lot more money then you ever could dream of spending. Usually 3x. Good luck and when you hit the wall at midnight just use that pic of your killer bud to keep you going. Above all else do not even tell your best friend about it, and now go take care of the ones you already told. Suerte JK

[Jalisco Kid]

I keep
Tangelfoot I use this in case of an ant invasion also I buy yellow foamboard at OD to make insect traps with the tangelfoot

Rubberized weather proof electrical tape for quick repairs.
Metal kabob skewers
4/6" wire ties
razor blades

Bennies to fight fungus,bacteria and/or molds blooms.

Disinfectants to fight all out. Physan or neccosan.
Hydrogen peroxide 35%

K silicate, spray at 8.0-8.2 pH

be able to make your own or a product like growth products "Revive."

A flush product that will stop water uptakes in case of food poisoning.
A small supply of pH up and down.

Something to help contain acids or alkaloids spills on you or your room. You never know but I have really needed this in the past from someone who broke a gal of nitrate acid just after being told to be real careful. Turned his skin green. I was lucky to have helped, and treat the cloud of nitric acid.

Extra pair of welders safety glasses for when I can not find mine.

Separate Sprayer for pesticides between runs,used with full respirator for pesticides.

Big 10x mag glass to cruise through your room looking for trouble.

I use a fluke infrared thermogun to check for hotspots and electrical runs/ballasts ect.

Back up ppm pen and calibration solutions

I have other toys but I used my cardy ph meter more.
Extra pump,ro filters,and 2 extra 12" inlines with a 150 carbon filter backup.
2 extra ballast,relay and a breaker.
Fire extinguishers and or canned system.
That would do for a start. JK

Flat white reflects much better for walls and ceilings than gloss or semi gloss does.

Add some protection from mold and mildew to your paint. i prefer flat white arctic or platinum.Outdoor paint. Get some floor paint while you are there,easier to sterilize. Its only funtickets,and your girls deserve them more then you. Get used to it. JK
