No idea to be honest. A quick google search for attic/loft grow insulation should do the trick

 

[rainz]

Im already on it mate... looking at 3 inch thick rockwool with a shiny silver surface on 1 side, seems like a good choice considering the reflective surface aswell.

 

[tip top toker]

It's the reflection of infra red rays that you want to be aiming at deflecting.

Ive never grown in a tent... does anybody know how many plants would go nicely in a DR90?

 

[tip top toker]

I reckon 90x90cm should do you 4 nice plants, just don't let em get too bushy.

 

[rainz]

Yea tt thats what im just trying to find out about these sheets it says there flame retardent so im assuming its a fire blanket type top that should take care of any IR

hey guys hope evry1s good, been a while since i been in but i've been lurking away in the background and getting me new growroom underway (attic) been a nightmare so far but when isn't it lol

@rainz at the mo mate b n q got a sale on £3 a roll of 200ml carbon zero insulation, they also stock 1000gauge damp proofing membrane (thick black poly) £40 a massive roll and they also stock a product called thermal blanket £10 a roll which is only a couple of mil thick but has the thermal insulation value equivalent of 3inches of polystyrene so overlapped and taped seems should create quite a thermal barrier with just a layer or 2 to be safe.
thats what i put up in my attic so i'll be hoping it does the job lol

my mates got the same tent, 4 is the max although he usually does 3 and tends to lollypop( fuck knows why, he heard it from this fuckin spaz and he follows his style, ive told him its a fuckin waste of time and he always yeilds less than me but .....sum people just cant be told!)and i'd prune them a bit during flower and id use Kingspan as insulation, thats whats used in the building trade, expanded polystyrene with a reflective surface on one side, comes in a range of thicknesses

 

[rainz]

Nice one fellas gona jump on it tomorow get it all fitted out, im probably gona make some vents in the bottom of the shed to allow the cold air in, and with how cold its getting im hoping that will reduce the risk of it the temps being much different inside the shed, i might decide to vent out of the shed and into the bushes lol that will fuck with chopper.... the burning bush lol

 

[rainz]

@W Dragon..... gona give that thermal blanket a go, i wont lose much headroom then either. cheers pal
