I'm going to start building my grow cabinet and am looking for idea's on how to do so. Thought I would see if any one would post pics of what they are using or had built. I'm looking at roughly building a 3 x 3 or 4 x 4 cabinet with wood...Thanks!!!

Sent you a message with some reputation points.
Then realized you might not know how to find it.:stoned:

So, I'll repost it here.
I recommend reflectix insulation to line the inside.
It reflects 98% of the full spectrum without "hotspots",
And a small, oscillating fan is basic equipment for a small cabinet.
Hmm, this could get long.

Pictures will certainly help
Suggest that you click on my avatar.
That will take you to my photo albums.
There are glimpses of both grow cabs there.

I grow with targeted spectra.
I use only 2 colors of LEDs because energy costs are very high here, but my cabinet design will work with CFLs as well.

Probably need to be modified a bit to deal with HPS or MH lighting.
Tell us what equipment you plan to use and we'll be happy to help.

Aloha,
Weezard

Well I'm going to finish this grow up with CFLs. I would like to use the HPS once I get the cabinet built as I'm having real slow and slightly poor results with the CFL. I know I'm going to use mylar or the reflectix..I also have a couple computers laying around so I'll be taking out the fans. For the exhaust I'm really not sure maybe the tubing for dryer venting? Not sure if that would work..
If I end up having to use the CFLs for the next grow I need to figure out a better way to set those up..I live in a small enough town that today I couldn't even find the adapter to go from one light bulb to two!!!! SAD!!
