thanks Zeb
I hope my cuttings root soon too. RapidRooters will be my next method to try out. Stinky makes it look all to easy cloning with those. My next time at the hydro shop Ill pick up some rapidrooters and some new FF grow big.
Is anyone else using fox farms Grow big and the N-P-K is 3-2-6? On the FF feeding chart it says its N-P-K is 6-4-4. So do I have a older formula or something?

just a lil update on the cloner. So it seems they really like it better with the rest of the group. Only one clone has roots but hopefully now that I have a better grip on things the rest will root soon. I raised the water about a inch from the top of the bubble cloner and added a small air hole to prevent the lid from popping off LOL :thumbsup:. Now to see what roots faster the bubbler or the rockwool.

Irie,
There are 2 different Grow Bigs, one is for hydro, the other is for soil. Green Lable is for soil, Aqua Lable is for hydro.
I know carpentry, when you say locking mechinizim what do you mean? Are you looking for stelth, security, artistic, all or none of the listed?
Just give me an idea of what your looking for and hopefully I can point you in the right direction.
awwwww crap I got the hydro one LOL. but I think they only had this one anyway when i bought it. gonna order some supplies so maybe ill re-up on nutes also. thanks for the info on the differences
As for the locking mechanism......hmmmmmmmmmm. I kinda was looking for a door lock type thats stealthy so noone will know how to open the doors. a trick door i guess? plus I have padlocks on each door at the top for extra security. im gonna check out some magic stuff on trap doors for ideas. any help would be great.

So here it is, not quite fully finished but just about there. Still need to cut the exhaust hole since I forgot to do that tonight :jointsmile: then check for negative pressure. After the venting is all handled correctly, I plan to do all the wiring for the remote ballasts and mock it up in the cab with cooltube. I already did the lighting for the veg cab, which is currently in use in my closet and I may add 2 more 15w floro tubes for a lil extra side lighting. If your wondering about a carbon scrubber, I dont have a need for them at all as my entire household smokes. Though I might make one if my girls start to really stink up alot. I already have a design conjured up in my head for when i need it.
If anyone has any questions regarding my cab fire away. I also alreay have ideas for a new and improved cab even though I literally just finished the first one tonight. over the next couple weeks Ill be running tests in the cab before actually growing in it. "Dont wanna commit my girls to a cab that cant handle them, you know what I mean".
oh yeah my one clone with roots is doing great. It now has about four 2-3 inch roots growing strong. I plan on using it in a DWC bucket I made to experiment with the hydro scene.

Today I cut the exhaust hole for the cab and hooked up my blower with 4" ducting. Gonna let it run over night to break it in. I hope to get my two 150s in the cooltube and running so I can get some temperature readings. At first I was gonna mount the ballasts in the cab next to the blower but I changed my mind and decided to mount them outside on the top of my cab. I figure the less heat sources in the cab the better.
I setup my DWC bucket and got it running with 2 kalimist clones in a 4" net pot. Both clones had a bunch of 4-6" roots nice and white. It holds around 1 1/2 gallons of water, then added 2tsp grow big, 3 drops of super thrive, then pH'd to 5.8 (only needed a couple drops of ph down). This is my first time trying hydro growing so I hope I do alright. Am I doing this right so far??

No I didnt bail on you guys, if thats what anyone was thinking. Just figured no one really wants to see vegging plants so I held off til now, plus I finished my cab :thumbsup:. Im not gonna get into any details here but start a new log for this cab. I hope everyone migrates over to that once I get it started, its gonna be a full cab for me from now on so stay posted.
