Hey folks,
I've got a basement that hovers between 50 and 70 % moisture in the air. Ground water comes in this time of year and stands in a couple places (has a drain, just have to fix the floor a little or use a sump pump.
Anyway, it's in a perfect location and access to unload/store grain, sawdust, and beet pulp for the horses. Can get some pretty big containers with lids for the feed and have plenty of pallets and plywood for a sawdust bin.
Think I could use it as a storage area without ruining a bunch of feed? Would (maybe) the sawdust and maybe a couple bales of straw help control the moisture level with a little ventilation? And maybe make it better for storing some fruit and veggies (tators, apples, and carrots)? I put 500 pounds of carrots in a wooden crate/pallet last year and they were shot in 4 weeks.
Sure could use the extra space it would provide, what does the smart folks think???
It's 10 feet away from my current feed room and sawdust storage which is 3 stalls that I could really use and much more convenient to unload bulk......
Dave

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
