[1] Maximizing floor space in a tight footprint, [2] R19 insulation in 2x6 isn't a big enough jump from R13 in 2x4 to offset the additional cost, [3] and its not hugely necessary in this climate, and plus [4] I had lots of 2x4 studs already.

I rented a drywall lift to help me get the sheets onto the ceiling and the high walls. This thing is essential when working alone like I was.
You can also see where i've used expanding foam to fill any gaps in the wall that might leak air/moisture.
Drywall up and seams/screws taped. I didn't bother with second/third coats as the wall surface isn't important to me at this stage. I can pick this job up later if for some reason one day this ends up not being a grow room.

Here's my janky ass work station and fittings built into the veg room.
And all painted flat white like the rest of the room, using a latex-based primer with mold/fungus resistance.
You can see I have a small space for cutting clones, writing journal etc, adjacent to the sub panel.
Ample storage built with scrap siding finishes off these cupboard doors. I also built in a little drawer for small tools and pens etc. Minor detail but it has a lovely sliding action, lol. Something small like this feels like an achievement after building big for so many months now.
First lights hung were the 4ft T5's in the 2-level nursery. Its getting close now.

yes, totally closed. 36k of cooling should do the trick. I have a dehumi to throw in if necessary but i'm gonna see how the AC handles it first.
