6K Sealed Chernobyl

[Vincent Vega]

Sup guys just stopped by to show a 6k sealed room I recently built.

I started by building a room within a medium sized bedroom. The room is framed with 2x4's on 24's, insulated with R14, vapor barrier installed, sheathed with 7/16 OSB and sealed with 2x layers of poly.

The main room is roughly 11 x 10. I build another room within a room in the closet, measuring 6 x 7. Both rooms are connected and well sealed. Joists were hung where i have my lights, ac and burner situated, so everything is screwed right into the joists, not just OSB. No span is greater than 24". Made sheathing more costly but its worth it for me knowing everything is solidly hung and nothings going to come crashing down. Two layers of insulation were used in the ceiling.



Pic deleted for security reasons.



Just one layer of insulation for the walls.

An exterior door supplemented with weather stripping keeps things well sealed.

Here we have a 40A 240v line coming in for the lights.

And another 30A @ 240v for AC, fans, dehum, heater, etc.

Three 6" ducts for exhaust.

Here are the intake and exhaust ducts.

The room is very well sealed.

Subs wired and ready to rock. 70A total.

Conduit was used to contain the 8/3 240V lines.

[Phillthy]

K where was I? Oh yea, right.....*Ahem* (clears throat)

Here are the ballasts wired up. Everything is clad with cement board. A high temp shutoff was later added (thermostat and contactor).

I've got 7 bulbs (600's) in the main room. SSII's of course running Hortilux eyes.

Here's a real tight run of 4 bulbs lighting up a 4x11 area.

Here's another shot of that tight run.

Just 3 bulbs running in the closet. Two cooltubes and a SSII.

Currently one 6" fan per 5 bulbs is being used plus one for the AC so 3 total. As you can see wires are tagged to cement board. Wire and poly don't mix well IMO.

Oh yea I almost forgot....TrichyTrichy, LiLWaynE, Phillthy and Teeg420.....Thanks for stopping by guys. Your comments are most appreciated.

 

[LiLWaynE]

so fresh and so clean ....

ok now lets see the buds...

 

[Vincent Vega]

Here are the tables in the main room. They are raised off the floor with 1x4's and are lined with poly. These beds don't drain so over water or over fert and your FUCKED

Here's a shot of all the shit hanging from the ceiling in the main room. Fuckin crowded in there man

Anyhow i gotta run out and grab some green bulbs to do some night work in there. I should be back shortly with some more pics!

Sorry LiLWaynE no nugs yet just cuts veggin out.

 

[TrichyTrichy]

ok! Hurry back

 

[Phillthy]

[somebody041]

wow, looks great! how much time have you spent building that? you must have some construction experience.

please share more!

 

[somebody041]

[mrdizzle]

hey brother could you post some pics of that a/c box. im about to build one myself

 

[mikeross]

Looking good... can't wait till the actual grow starts.

What strain are you planning to grow? Whats your veg setup looking like?

 

[Vincent Vega]

Sup guys....Hope you haven't been waiting too long.

Lets take a look at that tight row of 4 bulbs the day of planting. Lights were up high for the first 3 day's then slowly lowered to 24" till they're flipped, then they'll be dropped down lower.

This is most of the main room the day of planting. There is plenty of air movement in the room. I'm using 4 wall mount oscillating fans in the main room, 2 in the small room. Plus the air movement from the AC, fan/scrubber and dehum at night.

Finally, here is a pic of the small room day 1.

somebody041: Way to go man you fucked my whole thread up with that double posting shit it better not happen again!

JK bro grab a chair and smoke one. It's on me

Yea I took my time building this room as i had to take a bit a break due to a security breach at another location. I don't have a background in construction but I've always been handy with things. Thanks for stopping by!

greenthumbnewb: Thanks man!

SpasticGramps: Glad ya like it!

mrdizzle: Hey whats up man I'm not on site right now but I'll try to snap a pic or two tomorrow. Really tho man im not very good at explaining things like that you should probably check the thread linked below it should answer any questions you have.
