This is a big undertaking, homey. Hope you are ready.

Grow tents? No way. Flat white paint the inside of the garage or hand panda film

Lighting depends on sq ft, how many?

Number of plants depends, lets work on set up first.

I just started a new room, you can see below. Has a sketch too.

hi guys
just been to check out garage & take some measurements.

the garage is 2.5m x 3m & 2m high

the garage is not the best built garage ive seen,it will definatly need some kind of installation,so hopefully someone can work with me on how to insulate the garage .

also working with the measurements i have above,is it possible to tell how much equipment,lighting etc.. i will need

also i will be going hydroponic & NOT soil.

if anyone needs any other info please just ask as im new to all this

 

[babymonkey]

hi again
just been thinking about how to insulating the garage,as all the gaps need filling in around the roof,so theres alot of draft.

is there something i can use to fill in all the gaps ?

i was thinking off plasterboarding all the garage,but just thinking of the cost as ive got to get most off my equipment as well

any ideas ?

Ok, 8x9.5x6.5,

1: I would go with 4-600 watt ballasts or 3-1k ballasts both with bulbs, HPS

2: Can the room be painted? If not look up panda film

4:Ventilation, I would get 1, 8" Vortex fan with carbon filter for exhaust. 2, 4" or 6" fans to cool lights in hoods.

5: What type of hydro set-up?

see why i asked about budget ? lol...all this can be done with 6" inch fans but that's the only cheap thing i can see...plus i just burned some fresh hash so everything is kinda funny.

hi m8
i will look into panda film,ill serach it in google as i have no idea what it is,also the garage probably could be painted but there will still be all gaps around the roof,which could be a problem.

i will get an 8" fan & carbon filter,also ill get 2 6" fans,with the lights i will go with the 600w lights,i alraedy have a spare one so ill just need another 3

also about the hydro setup,i really dont know what type of setup it is ill be doing as ive only been growing for about 1 week,ive attached pictures of my 1st grow i have going at the minute,which is in a 1.2m x 1.2m x2m buddha tent

please note the picture for anyone that is reading this is only for the grow ive got up |& running & not the garage setup

hi yes i might just need to slightly budget as the 600w lights are about 100 pounds each,also the 8" fans cost about 120 pounds.

ive just paid nearly 900 pounds for my other setup in the buddha tent with the 4 plants growing in it.

hi m8
could you give me your opinion on what i need for my setup lights etc..

thanks

imo you have a nice room already put 6 babies in there and away you go, JMO

 

[nouvellechef]

Most of it is above, lights, ventilation, exhaust/filter. Don't forget about fresh air in or CO2. Cheaper way is another 6" fan in for air. Here are some other decisions you need to research,

Nutrient Line
pest regime
