I am trying to figure out how to build a set up in my outdoor storage shed. I am not sure if its a good idea to even try as the temp variants might be to extreme. I think i can cut out 2 4/4 holes for vents but i have know idea how to solve the temp problems. Any ideas?

It's stoner easy!:hippy:
There'a a material called Refectix, It's 5/16ths of an inch thich, light weight, and 97% reflective.
It's stiff, kinda like cardboard and will contain radiant heat.
Slap it up with staples, or glue, or tape, whatever.
They have it at Lowe's 2' X25" for about $25
Or 4' X 25' for $48.
Then you can figure out regulation and ventilation.
I'm pretty happy with it..

Many thanks for the great advice Weezard. Ok so supposing i line the space with the insulation and put a vent for inflow on the bottom and a vent for outflow on the top. I assume that the insulation will solve keep the space from getting to cold but now how do i keep it from overheating during the summer periods. Will one 4x4 exhaust vent do the trick or do i need more or some type of cooling unit in the space?
The other problem i have is electricity. There is no outlet in the shed but the wall is adjacent to my bedroom. I figure i can drill a hole and put a high quality extension cord in the unit. I am only going to have one 400w HID lamp. Do you think i can run the 2 little fans and the light thru the cord?
Thanks in advance! :rasta:
