This is a work in process.
I’m sure that some of you will think some of my ideas are silly or wrong, but I’m trying my best.
I wanted to build a room that was a little more durable and can withstand being stored outdoors; because I don’t have room in tiny house for it to be indoors.
I recycled plastic advertisment boards to use for the walls, caulked everything, mylar emergency blankets line the interior walls.
Since it will be stored outdoors I located the intake and exhaust fans inside the tent to protect them from the elements. This is not ideal because it takes up grow space, but at least their protected and hidden.
One goal was to make it NOT look like an obvious grow room, so the average person won’t know what I’m doing. Locating the fans inside minimizes visible ducting on the outside which IMO makes it less obvious.
I’m going to install eye hook bolts to the ceiling for hanging lights, I have some humidity/thermometers, and i also have a charcoal filter i can install to the exhaust if (when) the smell becomes too apparent. I have some really small humidifiers too.
I plan to put some type of filter on the intake fan to avoid dirt, debris, bugs, etc from entering.
I think most of the criticism I’ll get is the fact that I plan to store it outdoors which will make controlling temperature and humidity more difficult?
And maybe the construction looks unappealing to some, but I kinda like the way it looks.
What do you guys think? Is this project laughably bad, or am I on the right track?
I was skeptical to share this because I’m a bit embarrassed because it’s so far different than the store bought tent, and I’ve never heard of anyone keeping a grow room outside. I should mention that being secretive and having a lack of space is what led to a lot of decisions during this build.
