Framing a room

[fikich]

Hello, so I decided to frame a room but I need it to be "mobile". What I mean by this is so I can move it if necessary. The floor is concrete, I did search on this topic and found a thread that shows grow room made out of PVC pipes. So something similar.

Basically I want to leave damage to the walls/floors to the minimum
For now plan is to use 2-4k watts in it, need some design suggestions and it
doesn't have to be with pvc pipes, could be with plywood and drywall.
(links to grows are welcomed, maybe I missed some)
hopefully someone will have suggestions.

You could use the pvc or 1x2's or 1x4's and then hang black/white plastic for walls. They also make the adhesive zippers for a doorway into the plastic. Jorge Cervantes growing DVD has a section on building a room like this, might be worth looking at. Good luck.

Im using angle iron (L shaped pieces of metal kinda like what you would see for a garage door track, available at ace home depot etc) and 2x4's.... The angle iron comes in 6' lengths and has holes so it is easy to build a room that is semmetrical. Im usung polyfilf for the walls for reflectivity. Im rockin a 6'x10' room, built this way with 3 600's on 4' light tracks...

zip ties work really good for attaching things...just make sure to over-do it

how big is your room (grow) going to be?

I had a freind that put wheels on his walls so he could move them .He can adjust size as needed.Plus easy access to ones i back

vaprpig, Mr.Pyrex - watched the DVD the same day and loved it, gave me a basic idea which was pretty simple in the first place, and that was exactly what I was looking for.

grizz, at least 10 x 10 ft, I want to fit 48 ebb and flow buckets in there. Any estimate how much space they're gonna take including easy access to the plants?

 

[vaprpig]

I don't think you're gonna fit 48 buckets in there. I'm planning on BlazeOneUp's recirculating dwc eventually and I came up with about a 2' square footprint for a bucket, so that gives you 25 plants and full canopy with no room to move.

You can easily fit 48 buckets in 10x10...im planning on 50 soils in my 6x10....

Actually Room size is not a problem. dankxBUBBAxhead when do you plan on starting?

 

[Guest]

Its already partially operating... not at full tilt though. Im shooting for a minimum of 15-ladies (each in 3-5gals) under each 600 on the light tracks. Giving me a total of 45 roughly... this should be underway around the 15jan...

Currently there are a few sour O.G phenos, and tootie frootie crosses under 2 of the tracks
