My False wall.Secrect Room

[fatchurchill]

drywall will support mold. Plus its big, heavy, and messy as fuck.

jsut get some panda film at the grow store and be done with it.

Money is not an issue. I have a somewhat good job, and no expenses. I need somethiung more stealth than just a closet. I would like to utilize my closet even when someone is in my room. So I think this is the best issue. BTW "Im planning on growing 60-70 plants... etc" Hilarious.

Reason for my edit: Can I just what a beautiful world we live in. Look at us we can communicate halfway around the world instantly,the sun shines on my face and I have my girl. I dont know life can get better.

2nd edit. She just rolled a j. It did.

ahhh. I got it. Didn't know it was a false wall kind of thing. One suggestion for you if your really trying to go stealth. Pick up some rigid rockwool insulation. You will ahve to call industrial insulation contractors or warhouses to find it locally. It is rock wool (aka slag wool) and is typically about 2 inches thick and comes in 2' x 4' pieces. Anyways, it is an awesome sound proofer.

Hey guys, bad news my sister died last night killed by a drunk driver in Argentina. Crazy. Ill be heading down to SA than to Europe to bring ashes back for the family. Currently at the airport my lfight leaves in 2.5 hours. I am sorry the photos will be a while. I have not booked a return flight yet. I am heartbroken. In the past year I have had my two best friends both killed in DUIs and now my sister and had my car totaled by a drunk(irrelevant in comparison). My poor parents, in two years they have buried my brother and now a sister. It leaves just me and one sister. I am not a parent but can not imagine what they are going through, my heart aches not only for the loss of another best friend but for my poor parents. I could use some good vibrations sent my way. Never take a moment for granted. Ever. Call the ones you love and tell them. Make sure they know. I am glad we were always close. If you see something you dont like in your life change it. It is to short. Be good to one another as well. I am sorry for ranting. Im a little emotional now.

Im not sure what to do. I just feel dead inside. Thank you to everyone that has commented and looked at this thread your words advice on this grow have not fallen on deaf ears. I strongly appreciate the advice on the grow however it will be a while. My roommate will take over from here.

Stay safe my friends. I send my love to you all.

Churchill.

hello, Im Rosevelt

I see he has already posted. I just want to say, Churchill You are LOVED from friends around the world. Your sisters death shows how amazing your family is. She went there to do economic stabilitzation. Your brother died trying to save anothers life. Every day you honor them in your actions. We all know your parents are proud of all four children. I love you man you are one of a kind. And as far as of Ts and Ps death, there was nothing you could have done. You were not even in the same country. Please pick up the phone or give me a call.


Reason for edit::

I knew you would post on one of your websites before you would pick up my call. I say this with love, I hope you dont come back for a while. Escape. Do that bike trip youve been planning. The boss told me to tell you take as much time as you need. Also call your girl. Shes worried.

i did the exact same thing you did with a buddy. cut a large closet in half. what we did is we used 2 inch weather stripping when we framed its up with 2x4's it keeps the light in. the only thing i did different was instead of the inside of the closet being the door we used the other end. the other end used to have a furnace but was removed and left a space open all the way to the hall. we got a bookcase and used it as a door as it was solid. we put a bed frame wheel under the bookcase and we used a piano hing to connect the bookcase as the door. it actually worked out great. no light escaping or nothing. looked legit though. my buddy got raided and they didnt find the room and department of children and families showed up too and didnt catch on. we later installed an escape hatch which put you right outside but he never used it. the room was nasty style though.

FDR here.


Back to the grow.
So I am the engineer. He is the grower. Dont let his modesty fool you. He knows a lot more than he lets on. He worked in a coffeshop when attending universtiy in netherlands and litterally grew his own food until he was 19. I appologize I do not know as much. I will be leaning on this website heavily so I thank you ahead of time. Thank you for the piece of advice Heatha. That is a wonderful idea. I will be suspending the build for a couple of weeks. It is nearly complete though and looks pretty good now. Still needs some love.


Reason for edit: So I have the plants growing about to switch Flowering next week. Cannanutes or Fox farm. For soil he usually creates his own ferts besides this time. We are using FFOF.

Second edit. Churchills girl is over and we rolled one. I totally understand why he loves this site. Ive only spend what 20 minutes on it. Addicting.

piiiiicttuuuuesssss pleaseeee

I know I said I would be suspending the build...I lied as soon as I posted that I changed my mind So here are some new Ideas for side lighting. I dont know if this idea is orginal but I like. Check it out


Photos will be coming. I dont have the chord for my camera(bought new chord offebay last night). My phone camera is god awful. Alright so what do you think about this. So side lighting.So I wanted to do side lighting but didnt want to moved 4 lights(one 600w and then 3 sides covered by shop lights ballasts) each time a plant grew(fluros have to be close to light). So I started to think. Not a good idea.lol.

So we ripped up carpet and laid lanoleom(cost 5 bucks off CL) over the weekend. I am not sure what these are called but you know how sliding doors work right. Well last night I got the idea while using my shower. What if we put guides from sliding doors then attached to Fluro Ballasts(for side lighting)so they could be moved much easier. Thats what I did. I went to walmart bought shoplights(mix of hot and cool) and pretty much everything I needed and went to work. I made 3 ballats with 3 lights each with a good mix of light. I used liquid nails to put the male guide to the fixture( a little more complicated but you get the concept). I fastened the the the female guides to the floor and ceiling via screws(love that I dont have any neighbors yet and I can do this at 1-3 am). There are hanging hooks on the fixtures. I then took parachute chord attached it to hook(on thefixture) the chord runs from the hook to a pulley that is placed 3.5ft feet above the ground.This allows me the option to move all three lights from the door pretty much painlessly(since they slide in sliding door guides). Im also thinking about attaching the side lighting ballasts to a spring of some sort which would force it towards the center(like attaching a bungee chord from the light to the center of the grow area). This is resistance would allow for the lighting to be move towards the center(ie closer to the plants) if I wanted with out ever moving the door way. All the chords run to 3 different hooks which are all next to the entrance. This allows for 4 sides of lighting(1 600w 3 fixtures).

I am sorry I dont the exact wattage I was up till 3 doing this and now at work. In my opinion it is a pretty sweet set up. Im sure there are ton of people with WAY better sets up than us but I love it. Its super clean, organized, and super stealth. I mean a hidden wall that not even the landlord noticed(stoped by monday). No body knows about it but the two of us and and you guys. Not even W.Churchill's girlfriend knows. She didnt spend the night till Sunday which by then the wall was already up. Once agian I dont have a ton of experience with different set ups. However, this room is sweet looking. Everything was super cheap mostly purchased of CL including the wall mirror, etc. If any of you have advice please throw it this way. I wont be offended if you think this is a stupid idea. Im open minded to any advice. Our exhaust runs through a carbon filter whic is then pushed into the bathroom. Our intake is light proof. The mirror system is incredible. I love that to. I just feel like scooby do each time. I just pull a chord and it opens(later it will be a book not finished).
There is still room for a veg box to be hung. Will someone give me some advice on what you think about it. Churchill wrote about it earlier in thethread. If we do it, which I amsure we will, they will be hung on the hidden wall so access is very easy right above the mirror.
Once again sorry for poor grammar and spelling. Like W.Churchill english was not my first or second language. So I appologize if its hard to understand the process of my build hard to describe it. I wish you all the best and enjoy your day.

Churchill here:
Thank you all for the kind wishes. I am on my way to see my family now. At the airport in Argentina 1 hour till my next flight for home. I am sad, but I know she lived on her own terms and lived with out fear. The summer before our final year of what highschool is called in my country the two of us stowed away on a boat destined for africa where we spent the summeworking(got a job at a hostel had to lie about my age(17 at the time)) and hanging out with locals. She had one hell of a ride on Earth.

To FDR, thanks man. Your the best. I like the idea of the side lighting. GREAT IDEA! Your the best dude thanks for everything appreciate the call. That is hilarious about the message. Sorry my phone doesnt work here(not sure why I have a international phone). As far as nutes just head to the hydro store, talk to Dave. He knows what is talking about. He is the one that got me on Rollitup.org.
