NFT_UK Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Attic grows eh, tricky place for a growroom Nice job on the build. What you need now, is to insulate the walls, Screwfix do a building insulator on a roll, called "Airtec Double Insulation" http://www.screwfix.com/prods/21112/Buildi...ion-1-05m-x-25m (hope the link works) I just did my attic with this stuff, batten the walls first, then staple the insulation to the batten to give an air gap, which stops damp and aids insulation, worth every penny and every minute spent doing it, for a number of reasons, it stabilises the temps and humidity, makes it easier to heat and cool, and stops your roof glowing hot if a heat camera happens by and has a look. The biggest problem with attics is huge swings in temperature, freezing in winter, roasting in summer, making it hard to keep warm/cool and humidity swings wildly, the above insulation pretty much solves all of that. I have Economy seven electricity supply, I run all my lights through the night, as it's the coldest time it helps with heating, it also uses up the seven hours of cheaper power, currently, the temps I have are 24c lights on - 19c lights off, I have a thermostatically controlled gas heater in there, just in case the temps do drop too low, along with intak and extraction fans set on a timer at 15 mins on per hour, over ridden by a cooling stat, just in case the temps rise too high, extraction is via the chimney, intake is via the gable end wall on the cool side of the house, this way, I never intake hot air from the unused attic space during the summer. As for your plants, don't let them get any bigger than 12" before flowering, even this may be too high, as they may well stretch too far into the heat of the lights, a better bet than 2 x 400w is 1 x 600w on a light mover (Lightrail 3.5), much, much less heat, less electricity and just about as many Lumens, my last grow produced 26oz in a 6x2 SCRoG under a 600w HPS on a light mover. I've been attic growing for over 15 years on and off now and have learned many lessons on the way, if I can be of any help, just ask away NFT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stigz Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 blu3ch33s3, can I just ask you how you wired all that up into the loft? Did you put a dedicated ring main in from the main fuse box for the house? I'm looking to upgrade to a similar set up so would like to find out. Thanks mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
