How will you disassemble it in a flash if they were to find out? I think a tent and scrubber would have been fine...
In Africa and other countries they have advanced to using pots or tires for some plants, that way when the police come they are able to run off with some of them, saving part of the crop

Scrubbers only do so much, so you've taken care of the smell, what about the sound? Using too loud of a blower you're going to draw attention to the noise running all the time, too small of a blower and it won't take care of the smell. Perhaps having the scrubber/blower setup inside of your makeshift grow/tent will dampen some of the noise...Either way I'd be worried about dipping quickly.
I heard in some places squatters have been able to take advantage of unoccupied homes, they just grow it out and when they leave, they just take the equipment only and leave all the dirt/plastic/trash and everything worthless. Maybe that's an option just leave and don't even mess around with it. bongsmilie

All in all I don't mean to shit on this guy, but this is incredibly poor construction practice, and it should be pointed out.... but what's even more heartbreaking is that all of this work was entirely unnecessary for what he's trying to accomplish ... I vote for tearing it down

The studs are 1.2m apart. The whole structure is build at 2inch x 4inch. Which is 10 times stronger that it should be and you still are whining. I could hang a car on the roof.

Header is already cut, but i havent deciced the height of door structure. Again the ceilings are 2"x4".

Do you even know what gyproc is?.

And yes i know i didnt do it perfectly. I was never going to. And still the frame is way more stronger that it needs to be. I know very well how that is supposed to do. Doing electricians job in the buildings. The foam is uretanium (dont know the percice name). Stop whining such a little things.

I saw pics on ur growtent. Extencion cord in a growroom lol ur a pro. Rebuild your shit before you burn your house. Non shielded cables with leds etc etc.

Nothing wrong with extension cords as long as they are used correctly. My room runs off a 20' cord that came with my generator. Its 12 gauge wire rated for 20 amps. My whole setup only pulls about 12 amps. I would go as high as 15 amps continuous use off that cord; even 20a should be safe but Im cautious. The wiring in my house is 70 years old. The only properly grounded 20a outlets are in the kitchen and bathroom. All the other outlets are 14 gauge wire on 15 amp breakers. I feel much safer using an extension cord plugged into a fully grounded 20 amp service panel outlet.

I was an electrician for a long time, and have been a real estate developer for even longer ... I wired the house I live in, along with dozens of other properties ... my grow tent is fed with 2 separate dedicated 20A GFCI circuits, each with it's own commercial power strip ... the lighting circuit is drawing about 10-11 amps with both lights on, and the other never more than 3 or 4 .. I also know enough to know that your comment about burning my house down is nonsense and a poor attempt to deflect from the fact that what you built is an amateur hack-job.... i wish you the best of luck, I'm not trying to be a dick, if you have a specific question about how you could improve things I'd be glad to help, just ask.

Same here, Super heavy duty 20 amp extension cords are just fine especially when you are running less than 75% of their rated use. Power strips are just fine as long as they are high quality 20 amp strips.

He’s building grow tent buddy, not a bomb shelter.. like I said, he still has to panda film the whole thing regardless. But as for structural integrity, he definitely doesn’t need anything more than what he’s got.

I stand corrected ... I'm sure this modern marvel will stand the test of time ... a prolific nug factory for sure
