FIRST GROW WOULD LOVE FEEDBACK

Hey my name is richard... New to this forum and growing! Super stoked to live learn and love with this venture... I have 28 plants in the first stages of flowering... I live in socal and it's been 100 everyday but the girls are thriving... I have used my knowledge of science and researching daily... I have a severe seizure disorder and this helps prolong my seizures it's great! So I can't work and take care of the ladies constantly... I planted may 10th so they just hit 4 months... I ha them on LED lights to extend growing season a bit it also pulled my clones out of flower when I got them.. Never buying clones again lol... I have fire OG Jack Herer white berry big bud OG dj shorts blueberry cataract kush and green crack... I started them on general hydroponics nutrients from the beginning but I just switched on vf-11 nutrients and they work great... I am also building a two story grow in our 6000 sqft shop... The grow will be 1000 sqft structure within.. It will be fully enclosed bottom floor for veg. Top floor for flower.. I will have wall to wall mirrors to reflect and make the space look bigger... I will tile it with the wood looking tile... All plants will be on a drip system and the rooms will be climate controlled with co2 tanks as well. The outer edge of the 24 hour room will contain mother plants and clones and seedlings... I will use the see of green method to harvest 4 times per year... Misters will top the plants and keep humidity high. But not too high... Across on the other side of the shop will be a one story 800sqft structure that will contain a beautiful kitchen FYI my friend is an architect and it will look clean and moder... the kitchen will be used for edibles... A huge table will be used for trimming and other things.. A lounge with a TV and smoking area will be there as well... A closet with all electrical components another room for storage And enclose climate controlled room with plants I am breeding... Keeping the breeding plants completely away from my other grow room... So yah I've been busy... Here are some pictures of my first outdoor grow! One cataract kush is over six feet tall from the ground... So glad science is on my side...

you mentioned wall to wall mirrors? Don't mirrors absorb light instead of reflecting???

Dielectric mirrors are glass or other substrates on which one or more layers of dielectric material are deposited, to form anoptical coating. A very complex dielectric mirror can reflect up to 99.999% of the light incident upon it, for a narrow range ofwavelengths and angles. A simpler mirror may reflect 99.9% of the light, but may cover a broader range of wavelengths.

I was thinking and just found that's what it is but I guess if there's a way to scale it out it might be awesome?
