Hashmaker6 Posted September 18, 2016 Author Share Posted September 18, 2016 @@Bud Wiser she's been sold the idea. I've put maximum effort into it mate. It's been like a week thought out political campaign. Planned, prepared, lobbied and then executed to perfection. I want a luxury grow room. Within 24 months we'll have construction. I'm happy to wait. £5k was a compete out of the air figure, haven't got a clue what a double skin brick shed would cost..... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bud Wiser Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 (edited) Ok, back to the wood ... shed under construction! In my efforts to completely seal up the growroom, one issue I needed to resolve was the gap along the hinge-side of the door frame. The boarding, when attached, would overlap the frame on 3 sides, but had to fit flush and not overlap on the hinge side otherwise the door wouldn't open! This would leave a gap through which odours and CO2 could escape .. so here's the solution: A thin strip of heavy-duty plastic sheet cut to size and applied down the length of the hinge side of the door and the frame using decorator's flexible filler (Poundland) and staples, like so: The filler helps provide a seal and keeps the plastic in place while you staple. Cut out holes for the hinge pins with a Stanley knife. The photo on the right is with the boarding in place over the door. Once the rest of the boarding's in place, leaving a gap for the door to open, the plastic sheeting looks like this: The photo on the left is taken from the inside with the door open ... you can see the result of the sheeting in blocking the gap effectively. The pic on the right is from the outside with the remaining boarding attached. The remainder of the boarding added, and the partition now looks like this: Still got the top sections to do, but they'll be cut to size and left out for the moment, I've still got a load of greenhouse skunk I'll need to dry and the extra airflow will come in handy. Also, I've got to cut out holes for the CO2 pipe and the air-intake, so I'll need to buy an active air-intake with baffle first before I start cutting holes. Which brings me nicely onto airflow ... I was thinking, instead of drawing air in from outside, why not draw it in from the 'other' half of the shed? The air will be much warmer and less of a pain to heat. The idea is to place a couple of vents high up on the opposite wall to the growroom and place a tube heater on low heat just below them. The air would then circulate a space identical in size to the growroom before being sucked in, the exhaust obviously being directed outside in the opposite top corner of the growroom. I'll try and get a diagram together to show what I mean ... Last but not least, I've got a huge fucking lump on my head from banging it on the door frame ... this shed's being built with blood and sweat, and injuries!

Irishgirl Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 (edited) Concussed. Lumpy Bud Aah poor lumpy, concussed Bud, maybe you should add a bit of foam to top rail of door .Ya I think bringing the air in from the other part of the shed is a great idea as the air will not be as cold as if you bringing in directly from outside, especially during the winter months. It's looking great & very clearly thought out, very impressive. Well done. Edited September 20, 2016 by Irishgirl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
