here at the bottom of my garden is an old shed filled with junk. going to redbuild the inside to make it nice and clean and build a veg room in there. only thing is i live in the UK and it gets cold and frostly in winter which is nearly here. i have an electric heater if need be. whats your opinions about it all? any suggestions about setup? thanks guys DSC00895.jpg

Greetings fellow Brit. Be careful of the heat footprint is all I would add mate. I have a load of sheds and I'm always tempted to grab another tent for mothers but those damn choppers, well you know!

hello mate, im going to use a load of mylar blankets before i put wood inside it, that is meant to 100% stop choppers seeing the heat. i have my attic for flowering and veg at the minute, so i plan to have my shed for veg and attic for flower to give me more room to play with :)

Fantastic, wouldn't want to see another farmer loose his crop! Got worried for a minute seeing the corrugated roofing thought damn, that would be like runway lights under flir.

*edit* where will you exhaust the heat?

Peace,

yeah im basically gonna insulate the whole inside including the floor and ceiling, then put mylar sheets all around the inside leaving no gaps, then put wood on all 4 walls, the floor and the roof on (inside), going to leave the outside as it is, then use that white plastic stuff on a roll and line the whole of the wood with that so there is no gaps and it has reflection. then once this is all done, one side of the shed is wood, the rest is made from bricks so im going to drill a hole through the inside to the outside for an exhaust fan. Then put 2 600 watt HPS lights hanging from ceiling with adjustable chains, and a couple of fans in there too. the shed is like in the corner of my garden surrounded by big bushes so its kind of hidden. might try some SCROG too. all sound good to you mate? cheers for input ..

Cant wait to see the pictures man, you should do it diary style so we can see it progress.

Only concern is the heat coming out your venting imo, if your willing to go ahead I'm sure you will work it all out fine man. Looking forward for updates.
