Those of you with a garden in your garage...

I need some dear input if yall dont mind.

After years of going harvest to harvest I would like to begin my journey into a perpetual grow schedule. Ive been numerous cabs and boxes, yet now im looking for something to be my permanent veg/clone and mother area. I cannot find a picture or a setup exactly what im looking for yet ive seen them countless times passing by them.

I have seen people post pictures of what looks to be a workbench in their garage possibly with doors underneath which when you open them up, lead to their veg/clone and mother area. I find this to be a superb idea but with that grand idea comes a couple catches i see off the bat.

Where I live it can reach upwards of 90 degrees sometimes and in the winter it can get as cold as 10 degrees. Obviously temperature would play a big factor in the situation yet I have no real way to actually cool the garage and only limited in ways i can heat the garage. This has been the idea that has stood out most to me. How do you battle the temperatures?

If you have any experience with this, or you have a setup like this i would love to see whatever it may be.

My next best idea was to get a "Closet Maid" organizer from Home Depot and section it off, but i figure the workbench can come in handy for everyday things as well.

Check out my link ;) everything build in a 2 car garage. Walls, floor, own electricity panel, ventilation etc...
 
Will do, and thanks for the speedy reply.

I use my garage more than often and i need a workbench as well so i figured theyd go hand in hand. Im tired of having a DR120W tent stuck in a closet and hearing another fan going all the time.

here's a trick i've done in the past, may do again int the future, this is for the cold situation
in your insulated grow area, have 2 grow chambers on staggered lighting schedules
1 always being on becomes the heater for the other chamber in it's dark period

Recently put a cab in the garage under my workbench... best idea I've ever had. stays about 80 even though temps outside are closer to 40
