that’s going to be awesome when you’re done. Keep up the good work. I would love to have a grow room let alone something as stealthy and cool looking as this!

@amosmoses very common on old houses here. Most people say they are unsafe and fill them in. You can harvest the water here for your lawn but not for use in the house.

few toys for the new set up. I’m still hydraulic cementing the inside very Time consuming. So I’ve been thinking what would be the best light for a nine foot space.

It’s coming along! Your patience to take the time to do it right is commendable. I can’t wait to see it in action. @dbrn32 is the man to talk to about lighting.

9 square feet as in something like a 3x3? Or a space that’s 9’ by something else?
@dbrn32 the room is round. It’s nine ft across and nine ft tall. I’m sure it’s close to 70 sq. feet
