Looking good bro. I love mini splits. Enviroment is the key to success imo. When you have control over

the atmoshere you have control over the grow. I know quit a few growers who had a hell of a time this

summer because they don`t control the enviroment, from bugs to mold to botris, I haven`t any of those

things this summer. that Fugitsu compresser suppose to be the shit. I have 3 12000 btu mini`s DIY 

Ideals. So simple and work great. I wish they were all 2 ton though. Your on your way to a super clean

room man. Great work.

Thanks Tortuga! I'm with you, environment is the key and number 1 priority for me on this grow room

obviously. Stay tuned in to see what happened over the next week for the room to really be transformed

into a grow heaven.

 Well, its been over a week since I was hoping to be writing this post. The g arage floor is finally finished

as of last Friday. The veg cabinet and the tray tables should be done tomorrow hopefully. Painted the

day after, and plants moved in shortly after once I set up the equipment. The room I'm using now for

the plants (not ideal at all for environment control) is a bedroom loft and that loft will be occupied by a

person instead of plants starting Wednesday so I gotta get moving.

Speaking of the plants, no picture updates for them. . . I let the cubes dry out under the wet coco media

and didn't realize what had happened for several days with the coco still being completely saturated.

:sweating Growth completely halted and has just picked back up slowly over the last 36 hours. Should

 be back to were they were before the mishap in 24-48 hours. They didn't look happy at a ll for a few da ys

in the middle there, no dropping of the stems but definitely in the leaves and showed signs of deficiency 

 because they ha d no root system to instate water, let alone n utrients. Anyways, like I said, I have nursed

them back to health and should be going strong soon. And now I am behind all these other WiFi logs

going on (which is what I wanted anyways) so I can follow along and learn from others as they get to

stages a few weeks ahead of me.

Ok back to the garage, because that has been going slow but at least steady, unlike the seedlings. It took 

me a day to get the garage cleaned out completely (sweeping, hosing and brushing), then 2 days to do

the etch on the concrete because it says to use on a dry surface, and one treatment wasn't enough on

some of the worst oil spots. So after hosing down the first etch I had to wait a day for it to be dry again

for round 2.

Heres after round 2 of etch and 2 more days worth of crack and hole filling with a filler that settles

heavily and needed two applications almost everywhere:

Then I spent a day doing the epoxy primer which was tough to apply because the etch had made the

cement surface so rough the primer would not spread very far before I needed to reroll my brush in the

tray. Never got a pic of this step, but basically the primer was a watered down Elmer's glue that I

painted on so once it was dry it looked like a slightly wet, higher gloss version of the same concrete floor

(totally transparent).

Next, I painted on the first coat of epoxy 4 inches up the walls and on the floor. This process was also

extra slow because the pure white epoxy was revealing lots of small divots in the concrete (very very 

small) but enough that it would have left holes in my epoxy coating so i had to press extra hard and use

more epoxy than on the following coats. I didn't get started on this first coat until around 4:40 pm so

that was all that got done that day because I couldn't get a good second coat done in the dark.

The next day it was obvious that it needed at least a second coat, it had cracking along the caulking atthe wall edges and some of the small holes had re-appeared due to settling of the epoxy when it dried. I

 went back to HomeDe Pot and got 2 more cans of epoxy (a ctually grabbed a c an la beled deep base on

accident and had to go back to get white once I realized it was not the same stuff I had used on the first

coat, luckily i had grabbed the wrong can under direction from a HomeDe Pot's employees guidance of 

it being the exact same product, so i got a full refund even tho the can was open and used a bit). So

 with my two cans of WHITE epox y, I got an other coat done on the floor tha t filled in all the tiny holes

and fixed the cracks.

But I was being anal, and decided now that I had put a couple hundred dollars into making my floor

this way, I didn't want roller strip patterns visible in the floor for the rest of the time I use this room. . .

so I did a third coat on the floor going the opposite direction to even the white out completely.

 And I was an inexperienced blue tape remover and pulled awa y from the wall instead of towards thetape itself and removed some of the original white wall paint from behind the tape during the removal

 but no worries that will be fixed tomorrow also. So now the room has a perfect brand new white epoxy 

floor and if the room ever were to flood it could handle about 3inches of water without any real damage

to anything (even tho I don't think there will ever be enough water in this room to flood it that high).

Here's the final result before any equipment or table/closets go in!

 Wow tha t room is g oing to be fun man . I dig the floor. I` ve never done that to my rooms. I just leave

the concrete. I`m to much in a hurry usually. Ya man you have to be carefull when your lil ones are in

RW. I know exactly what your talking about. They droop, yellow out and look like shit. They take a few 

days to get better. Killin the roots when they dry out like that. When RW gets to dry it sucks the water

right out of the plant. I did this a couple times in a row a while back. They didn`t die but they took a

 while to come bac k. Now If a plant starts to resemble that look at a ll I touch th e top of the cube to make

sure their not dried out. Great work man

Busy Busy Busy! got to go back to school on Monday so things are a bit hectic around here right now.

Slowed down a bit during the time I was working on the floor (i didn't like working with all those crazy 

fumes for very long in 1 day), but it has kicked into high gear over the last few days

 You ha ve no idea, they will be a tad bit spoiled i think :evilgrin. and th e room isn't quite so clean at a ll

right now. wood scrap and saw dust basically obscure the pure white floor entirely.
