Hello growers!
I’ve grown outdoors for several years but am setting up my first indoor garden. I have two grow tents. I have a 3x4x5 LA Garden Lodge tent for propagation and early veg and a 5x9x7 Mars Hydro grow tent for late veg and flower. I plan on growing with a Scrooge method. I’m in the Oakland/Berkeley area. This will all be going inside of my garage. I need to install some insulation and am thinking I may need to build out two walls from one corner and at least have the large tent inside a well insulated room to help maintain a stable environment. I have 8’ of ceiling clearance. The garage has no insulation currently. What do you all suggest for insulation and wall construction? I’m going to be using LED’s so won’t have heat issues from my lighting. I have a dehumidifier already and will likely need an A/C unit as we do get some warm days here in the summer. My goal is to make this room as energy efficient as possible. I’ll be doing a RDWC setup using a chiller which I already have. Hopefully I’m posting this in the right place.
