Evening everyone!
I just popped up recently with a chance to finally have my own setup. Lots of good advice shared my way with my first thread over at Long timer time lurker, first time poster - setup
Now, I’m ready to start documenting the journey and get my hands dirty, pun intended.
So been trying to figure out the layout in the basement given it is only roughed in and the outlets at central. Only one window (small egress) so not a lot of light to worry about though we’ll be covering it over anyway.
So the old lady gave the go ahead and actually helped put the tent together. Opted for a 4x4x6 Growneer which is actually a lot less obnoxious in the space than I thought.
Poles went together easily - directions were easy to follow:
It did take both of us (my wife and I) to comfortably get the canvas over and secured without the risk of puncture. The material is heavy enough I wasn’t really worried about the canvas but didn’t want to rip the shiny innards.
Of course we had some help by the real “boss” around here who looks as excited as we are with the beginnings of a hopefully enlightening journey.
Lots of pieces together now but waiting for the lights to arrive before locking down the positioning. Have a 6" inline with carbon filter for the tent but want to figure out the mounting before committing.
Nothing else in the basement so not super worried about smell but did grab a Levoit Air Purifier with carbon scrubber on Lightning Deal (amazon) for $76 today. Will put that at the entrance to the stairs leading up to the house. Probably not big enough to make a huge difference but we’ll be running it in the bedroom while fire season is still putting up the plumes.
Any other tips for smell if it starts becoming an issue?
Anyway, will slowly update on progress as we get closer to germing but wanted to take the plunge and get a spot for my musings going.
Hope you all will stick around and help a fellow out as I get this first grow under my belt.
Cheers!
