PappaBear's DIY Poly-Wood Cabin

Papa, I haven't read the whole thread yet since I just got the link from MurphMan(+REP), but I have started designing and preparing to build my own tent. My first build will be temporary for flower until I can build the larger on. The first will be 2'X6'X4 or 5' tall. Do you think 1X2" would be sufficient for thos dimensions? I plan to munt/hang all light, fans, electrical(and possibly a gravity fed watering system so I can dump 5 gallons(40lbs) of water in and let it gravity feed to 20-30 plants. I was thinking 2X4" at first, but was told that 1X4" would be more than enough. I plan no more than 2 400w lights in my 2x6' tent plus vent and electric, and 40lbs of water. What's your thoughts? My plans are here, post #3 has the readable paint plans.

Well, most of the real work has been mentally. My mind just won't shut off sometimes. I think, re-think, then over-think most things. That's why I prefer the heavy Indicas.

Thank you for the compliment! I take it you found it could be a workable plan? Looks like I have to delay construction until we move in on the 1st so at first I got bummed, then I over-thought it and realized it gave me a little more time to refine my plans.

If you like heavy Indicas, have you ever grown/smoked God Bud? I got some from BCseedking, but I can't grow any at the moment because they are supposed to be pretty fragrant. I'm itching to crack some of those beans, but I'm limited to low smellers at the moment.

edit: (Sorry for the OT, Pappa.)
edit #2: (Oh, yeah, great thread...I thought I'd said that, but just in case.)

Haven't tried God Bud yet. I take it BC is reliable since you got your order? I had some Black Jesus that I believe is GodBud X Black Jesus? Going to the dispensary Sat though. I'll definitely pick some up if they still have some.

Great, I'm real curious. Yeah, BCSeedking is the only Canadian vendor I've tried, and I sent cash. Made me nervous, but they were prompt and stealthy. I recommend them, from what little I know.

no problem, I give credit where its due. And take no offence to the next remark as I am saying it as your friend. Fuck rethinking your plans lol, they are fine.. refine your strain plan and figure out the easiest cheapest method and use it.. btw its not a full hydro dwc systems (sorry for those who disagree). Go through my link for the attitude, get garunteed ship with either a shirt or hoodie. I for one have enough damn wallets. Get something that yields a quality and quantity product// try finding a 1kg. plant.. they are not extremely expensive. If you have quall\ity I have found whether be it indica or sativa, its a k.o. when turned to hash anyways.

i dont want to throw you off, just help you succeed. The pure from flying dutchman is pure afghan untouched but they are regular and not fem seeds. Green House makes a couple 1kg. plants, cheese i think is one. Its all good, I just want you on the meat instead of potatoes. Let me know what you find and dont forget to use the link.

BTW! I was told by another user my tent would only last a month or so? Maybe they didnt pay attention to the part of me building these for years. Im not mad just confronting..I dont know do I care how long this lasts but I know its longer than a month! Here are a few pics.. 2 weeks into flower.

I do this to show how easy it is to do. All I feed them is MG tomato and molasses, just different amounts of each depending on cycle time. I said f the co2 and opened a window, because you just dont need it. Dont get me wrong it does help, its just not a need in all cases.

Looks good PB! Only last a month:rolleyes:! That's a good one. Thank you for the advice on going ahead with my build. I have been trying to get my wife to let me start it before we move, but to no avail:cry:. I know she's right. That $60-80 I'm going to spend can get a couple presents.

I plan on going to the dispensary on Sat. and checking out their clone and seed selection and see if I can't get 2-3 mothers started.

Checking the link right now.

yes sir, seed are expensive. I wait until there is a crazy givaway of free seeds than order. If you can get clones, fantastic, just keep them quarantined for a few weeks and make sure there is no pests or infection that can spread to the rest of your garden.
