Use of musty basement?

[buzzfield]

expanding and moving grow op...moving to basement for summer to help control heat prob

however need to know best environment for the girls!

I have a grow lab. basement is high and dry but 100yrs + old and is made from stone walls and cement floors so kinda musky smell...several rooms with no windows so have lots of possibilities

?? what is best thing to do to keep meds from picking up musky taste/smell?

use tent on cement or lay down pad or something as sub floor/barrier

use a room but do I then paint only stone walls, if so with what?...if no paint walls do I cover them with reflective sheeting,drywll,plaster etc

basically want best advise so



i can still do set up while my back and hips are still somewhat functional

well.. if it smells musky.. are you 100% sure there is no mold down there?

i see no reason cement and stone would produce a musky smell...

your best bet is either paint everything white, or, make a tent.

I would build a room for the tent, insulate and drywall it. Then I would run a dehumidifier outside the room. Musty smell is the humid stale air.
