Hi all, been lurking for the past week or so. The thing that really got my attention of these forums was when i stumbled across the vert section, it really intrigued me. What sealed the deal for me was reading all 40 odd pages of Northern Farmer's thread, and oh my good Jesus what a legendary grow that is, hats off to you NFR if you are reading this, you have created something very inspiring there!
So... I've a load of timber, hardboard, foam insulation and mylar on the way to me. My original plan was to build a completely sealed and insulated room within a room so that i can control the environment completely and also because I'm one paranoid muthafucka when it comes to the ole' helichoppers. The idea was to go with your bog standard horizontal grow, all that has gone completely out the window after spending the last 3 days pretty much non stop reading all the threads i could in the vert section here. Enough of my waffling anyway lol, let's get on to some specs of what i am creating.....
The room itself will hopefully be near enough fully built by this time next week pending delivery on materials. Intend to be fully functional and seeds sprouted by 4 weeks on monday. Anything I've missed here or if you feel i could improve on then please, all comments or criticism are welcome.
Oh by the way this will be my second grow..... Well, first serious grow, first time round was at 17 years old and i didn't have a fucking clue lol.
Look forward to chatting to you all and sorry for the essay haha

- The sealed room will be 6x6x7ft (considerably smaller than i intended to build but logistics got me there).
- 4 stadium style shelves.
- 3 x 600w Dual spectrum HPS lamps (Intend to veg and flower on the same bulbs).
- 6" Extractor fan with carbon filter, passive intake.
- Undecided yet on adding CO2 as the intake air will be fresh from the good ole outdoors.
- 2 Gallon pots with a soil/perlite mix.
- Strain undecided as of yet but it will all be from seed as unfortunately i have no access to clones and if i'm honest i'm too impatient too grow a mother plant for them lol.
