@Bud Wiser UK hows the temps now were below zero mate?

Thankfully, a lot better than when it was 10 deg C outside..!
I was battling with 31 deg C at times, without the heater on too .. just the lights and dehumidifier.
The problem was drawing my intake air in from the vegging room, which was also heated to about 25 deg C.

The thing is, you can handle a consistent temperature, whatever it is, just some tweaking between heater and ventilation does the trick. But when the temps outside vary wildly, your nice little tweak goes straight out the window (metaphorically speaking of course, but some people have actually taken me literally, I had one guy check the pH of a cow's arse because he thought I was being serious .. ha ha) and then, of course, cooling the room down becomes a problem.

I'm still tweaking ... but the lowest rootzone temp recorded so far has been around 13.8 deg C at lights-off .. a little too low for my liking.
The highest around 27 deg C lights-on .. a little too high for my liking too.

I'm testing another load of settings tonight .. more fucking vent/heat/humidity combos to try out..!

It's great to see how some of you guys go about your business. Hahaha! I learn a lot, but can't see me going to all that. I can't even hang a picture on the wall, myself. I'm glad I have a small space for a personal setup.
Besides, I'd probably use the one half of the shed as a dog house, to keep out prying eyes...
But great read!

I built a 10'x14'x9'h room inside my double car garage. I did two grows in there and realized I needed more space. I put up a 12'w x 20'l x 10'h greenhouse. I did two grows and realized I needed win the lottery
Put up a 80'w x 200'l geothermal heated greenhouse. Instead of getting bigger, refine the environment you have for the strains you want to grow. Like a keg cup grow, planning is everything.
Peace

Hopefully lumber and building materials prices will start dropping. Lumber futures are down but retail prices have not moved in the USA.
I've been looking at metal sheds, the price is not much more than the lumber and other materials for the same size building.
