That's awesome. My biggest failure ever was growing in an attic. I wish you all the luck in the world. What kind of climate are you doing that in? I'm sure with your mini split and the ventilation it'll be problem, as long as you aren't in a desert area. Looks clean though, might want to put down panda film or linoleum to keep your wood from swelling or having the ceiling leak water into someone's room (voice of experience)

Thanks man! I ordered some black and white poly that im going to put down, and possibly insulate and use that to cover the rest of the attic roof and end walls. It got pretty warm the other day and she handled nicely. It helps that im drawing air from inside through the lights, keeps it a little cooler than the warm air outside.

Awesome set up man. I wish my attic was that accessible it seems it's like the ultimate place to do it, if you can get the temperatures right.
Best of luck to you.

Thanks man. Temps have yet to be a problem, if anything too cold! We'll see how she down when the temps get close to 100 - might get rough but I'm remaining hopeful!

ductless mini split systems are cool. Before any a/c unit can begin to cool it must remove the humidity. Just something to think about. I'm new to urban horticulture however I make a living in the hvac trade.
 
Split A/C can be a pain in the ass! Clean your filters frequently (monthly) and the rest of it (coils, condenser unit, outside unit) twice a year and you will have smooth sailing...
