I built an 8x8 grow room in my garage I put plywood on the outside I put thick insulation in the 16oc studs an sealed all the way around ever piece of wood with silicone to make 100percent sure that ever thing is sealed I am trying to decide what to put on the inside wall do I put the mold resistant drywall or what ?
 
You can paint the plywood with a washable paint. I recommend using a primer first so your paint don't absorb into the wood! Sherwin williams can give you the scoop on what paint to use

If you know how to do drywall and don't mind finishing it that's best. Get the kind for bathrooms usually either green or purple depending on brands. If you want it to be easy to do you can buy the foam board that is reflective on one side and use the metal HVAC tape to seal the seems.

Flat white paint is great for reflectivity and maintainablility.


Hmmm.
I'm reminded of this anti-mold product that I added to my bathroom paint.

Looks like good stuff...

drywall is great for fire safety
maybe if you're running HID, drywall would be good. with LED you can do the plywood though. I would prefer drywall though.
