Garage Indoor Garden










I'm at a stand still right now until I get more funds for the rest of the room. Here are some pictures of the progress to date. It continues to change daily. I'm taking baby steps to a bigger goal. So far I have a room I've built out of metal piping with metal corner brackets. It was a frame for a golf driving net in it's previous life. The dimensions are 9'x10'x8' tall. I wrapped it in 6 mil black poly film and bought a tarp zipper for the entrance at home depot. It works better then expected. I used emergency blankets to add reflection inside the room. They don't seem to be very reflective, so I'm planning to order some white poly film to cover the entire interior top to bottom. I have two 600 watt HID lights running on Galaxy digital ballasts. In the near future, I plan on installing a 4'x8' ebb and flow table and two 3'x6' tables. I am going to experiment with the 3'x6' tables by growing the same seed stock, one in dirt and one in hydroponics.

  1. The garage is becoming an oasis! What a bold endeavor. I especially like the recylcing of the golf driving net frame. Your dream is becoming a reality!
