Well, my basement project is really starting to come along. We’ve gotten all the walls built to separate the various rooms. We used pressure treated lumber for all the bottom plates because my basement has been known to flood. Next we had an electrician come in to clean up the wiring and set up the power and timers for our lights. Now we have timed dedicated circuits that run every where we need. The next thing on the list is the dry wall. We’ve got to get this special Green Board that usually goes into bath rooms on account of how damp the basement already is plus how much more moisture is going to be present once the garden is in; there’s really no other way to go. Next, after the obvious paint job, we plan to put in a security system. It’s going to be a mixture of high tech and lo tech. On the high end, we’ve got biometric locks, web cams, and motion sensors. On the low end we already have steel shutters over the windows and a reinforced steel door with a standard deadbolt. There are also a few other things that will really detour any unwanted visitors whether it be thieving rat or dirty pig. Finally, after a long planning process, we will be able to get our lights and start our garden. We will eventually be employing a variety of growing methods including ebb and flow hydroponics, aeroponics, and the traditional soil method. We will be implementing a quarantine procedure based around the containment tents we are buying. Each garden of twelve plants will be housed inside of a very durable, independently ventilated tent with a highly reflective interior to collect and reuse as much light as possible. This way, if some sort of contaminate gets into one tent, it won’t necessarily get to all the others.
