Sealing up a room

I don't need to follow your beginner's Youtube or social media channels for grow, or any advice, but thanks.

You don't have to explain what engineering is. I'm an Electrical Engineer, and former licensed electrician. I've also built and sold my own homes as a side business.

I never once said I've done anything that makes me "so impressive". I don't do things to appear anything, let alone impressive. I do things to make my and other's lives better.

Last thing... I never said I knew everything. In fact, earlier in this thread I said I don't mind not knowing things and/or having misconceptions, because it gives this engineer something new to learn.

I'm just calling you out on your nonsense. Now, join my ignore list.
hey i was about to go through everyone of your points and explain exactly where you are wrong and i am right and why, but i think your on too much of a high horse and obviously dont like being challenged as you are sooking out of a debate, you will not follow me until you are proven wrong, and shown exactly what i mean because your scared of losing a debate, because you think your always right, so run off and leave you know your wrong im sorry i could not have a healthy debate with you and show you a thing or two, good ignore me because your scared i dont need people like you in my journal unless you can grow up and understand you are incorrect.

some "PRO" growing out of tents is rookie stuff not professional, what even are you lol...

You don't have to explain what engineering is. I'm an Electrical Engineer, and former licensed electrician. I've also built and sold my own homes as a side business, working at every trade on each project (except drywall... I've done enough of that and I let others do it anymore). I specifically enjoy electrical (obviously) and plumbing. I also thoroughly enjoy framing carpentry. So it's fair to say that I have more than a tiny bit of experience with design and build.

I never once said I've done anything that makes me "so impressive". I don't do things to appear anything, let alone impressive. I do things to make my and other's lives better.

I noticed that you have failed to answer a single question I had about your comparison of a tent vs your box. From one engineer to another, that's not how engineers communicate. They *want* to provide as much detailed information about their designs to others. They also take criticism well, because that's what improves a design.

Now, join my ignore list.
you obviously have not done all those things brother i can tell just by listening to you

zip9 you are a hopeless mate you have no idea and i dont need to try and explain what i have already explained to you again, i dont need to have built one before, i KNOW, its called engineering, they draw it up and understanding all of the laws of physics it gets made, i dont think you know as much as you think you know, i have nothing to learn i dont think you know who you are speaking to i have most likely been involved with more grows then you, but i dont have to explain that to you as you are the one who is unable to understand, go and re read what i said because you dont understand, watch and learn bud follow my journal you are about to get schooled.

go on bud what have you ever done that makes you so impressive ? you act like you know everything and i can already see you know nothing about what i say, i have provided links on the sealed room vs unsealed debate and you lost it but still are going on about it, your wrong and thats that, i dont wanna waste to much time talking to you as you are obviously a little silly, just watch my journal and lets agree to disagree and i will just have to show you when its built you silly bugger
You don't need to know the laws of physics to build a sealed room, nor be an engineer. Do yourself a favor and go unwind, breath deep and come back with a better attitude.

my attitude is fine, but im not going to waste my time with zip9 as he cannot be educated. he is on a high horse.

and i didnt say you needed to be a engineer or know the laws of physics but i do understand them and i understand all of the elements involved in building one, zip9 obviously ISNT!!! bignutes..

i am not going to let someone talk rubbish to me when they have no idea

A sealed grow room would not have an intake and exhaust, not readily in use any how. The point of a sealed room is to be sealed and to be able to totally control the environment. I have seen sealed rooms set up to vent if they happen to reach a max temp but otherwise they were sealed....

In a sealed room the grower adds the CO2 it is not drawn in from an intake, because then it wouldn’t be sealed. Often times the lights in a sealed room are vented to remove heat but these vents are ran independently from the room air though because the room is sealed.....

Hold on there .... I just lurked that “ grow “ and you even state you “ suck at building things “ ... your words.
You mention “ approximate “ dimensions... but you “ forgot “ ? ......
I don’t know what cheap tents you buy that snap plastic bits , but that was YOUR CHOICE TO BUY the damn thing.

Don’t push misinformation to the OP ... that closet is no different than hundreds that many growers use with folding doors or sliders.
Priority with that space is ventilation... Door can have reflective foam board creased at door folds lining the inner surface .
Its not rocket science adapting a space for a fucking plant. Sure people build boxes , cabs , dressers , etc.

I built a grow box from a 32 gallon tote using the fucking lid as a door , lined in a reflective surface back in the day.
It worked as seedling chamber. Crude but it worked. Passive intake , fan pull from back.


Closets are easy to mod.

have you never heard of hybrid sealed rooms?

this is what im talking about to be specific for those of you who seem to not know there is such a thing in existence from what i can tell.

Yeah but its not that complex and i know what my capabilities are and wouldn't undertake it without the appropriate knowledge, if i wasnt sure of my self then i wouldnt post it or be able to offer help to anyone building something better then a tent, also i mention the specifications are on my grow journal which i did link, do you not read english.?

for your information budzbuddah! i have never pushed misinformation to the OP or anyone for that matter, why would i waste my time.

Yes i agree about the room and how you talk about the door with foam and the lining of the inner surface.

but i was under the assumption the OP had limited space and was tossing up ideas on how he could go about it because his grow tent was too big or something he said.

it was just a option that he has that he may not have thought of.

HYBRID SEALED ROOM WITH VENTILATION, is a type of sealed room, grow tents cannot be sealed they can be ventilated but cannot be sealed because unlike wood, they are porous. and have alot of leaks around zippers and different components of the tent.

Had to go have a look after seeing your post. You can call me schooled. Both construction and cannabis growing.
Yeah well have a look at my journal mate i am getting along just fine and it will be finished in a week or 2 feel free to watch and learn and continue the discussion over there :)

I am talking about a HYBRID sealed rooom, using ventilation, but it is sealed. and there are no leaks except the designed intake and outtake, the grow tent cannnnnnnot ! do this, THIS IS MY POINT, SORRY but obviously i have to point this out for you guys

Wood is porous.... in case you didn’t know. Lumber is only kiln dried , so ANY moisture can be absorbed , possibly leading to mildew / mold.

seal
/ˈsē(ə)l/
Prevent something from escaping by closing a container or opening.
Isolate an area by preventing or monitoring entrance to and exit from it.
HYBRID uses things from multiple systems

its a hybrid snob, i just mentioned this

yeah but air does not travel through wood like a grow tent okay, do i have to state the obvious or are you just trying to be argumentative?

everyone i am talking about a hybrid sealed room, i do not think all of you know thats what i am talking about maybe i should have been more clear but i didnt anticipate spek9 carrying on like a 2 bob clock
