along with my other question I am also wondering about how to control moisture to not have mold. It will not be climate controlled all the time. I will do some cooking inside which I have read puts off a lot of moisture. Let me know what experiences you have had.

Where is this to be located? Not to spy on you but to determine the climate zone (insulation / vapor barrier climate zone, not the agricultural climate zone.)

southeastern Kansas. As in my other post, I know R-13 is low for the roof, but we have heated a single wall hunting tent with a furnace, so I think we will be ok, even if not the most efficient.

Google DIY sparay foam insulation. It's a messy process, best to wear disposable cloths, hair/head cover, etc.

I want to spy on you! My cabin is in NW Arkansas and I bet we're about an hour apart. As far as moisture goes, i can't help in the least. Electrical is my thing.

When you cook, open a window. If you use wood heat, moisture is not a problem. I'm in the Flint Hills and haven't had any problems.
I'm actually toying with the idea of using a convection vent over my stove. It would be used mainly in the summer when the A/C is having to remove moisture and will rely on solar heating of the vent pipe to pull the cooking vapors out. In the winter, it would only be used if I burn something. Moisture is in short supply with the wood stove, but if I wanted to vent, the warm air rising should do the job. I'll probably put a rotating cap on the stack to take advantage of the pull from the wind, too. In a small space, even the quietest power vents make way too much noise for my taste.
