  • Is it a crazy idea to create an indoor garden grow room in your loft or attic? Probably-but that doesn't stop us trying! However, the space directly beneath the roof presents some extra environmental control challenges. Here are some things to consider for an attic grow room.

    I put in a attic fan on a thermostat , it gets hot up there even in winter where I live and it vents the humidity out too. It was about $300 and the attic needed it regardless . If you have to use AC in the house in summer it will pay for its self.

      Jan King Amigo, by adding plants to your living room it truly becomes one. Have you considered a grow tent?

    Well I haven't gone into my attic for10 years. Actually I'm afraid to open that little square trap door. I envision mutant spiders the size of my Pomeranian living up there! lol Luckily for me my oldest son has moved out and I have a spare room. I suppose I could apply many of these same principles to making that a grow room.

    Wow, you assume everyone is living in new, crappy homes ! I am looking into replacing my 100 year old, 3 story roof, into greenhouse panels. Running water, and better wiring, as well as a 4 story dummy lift. Forget the light setup ! I want to be prepared for all possible issues, which includes a sealed floor, with drainage .

  • @JackieMeadow
    @JackieMeadow 2 года назад

    How expensive was it to add ventilation and a water source to your attic/to generally finish your attic?

    • @Just4Growers
      @Just4Growers  2 года назад

      Ventilation, if no other exit exists, can be created with a vented roof tile (a special adapted roof tile designed for this express purpose) - the maximum duct diameter is usually 150mm or 6" though so you may need multiple ports. Getting water up to my attic was very easy-although I needed an inline pump to increase pressure to make my RO system work properly. You shouldn't really need to spend more that a few hundred bucks, especially if you can carry out the work yourself.

    Would 3 600 watt light on the loft melt the snow on the roof?

    • @Just4Growers
      @Just4Growers  2 года назад

      Invest in quality roof insulation to avoid such inefficiencies! You really can't overdo insulation. Also, consider air cooled hoods to remove some of that convection heat. Good luck!
