My 1st cabinet grow log

I'm running 400 watts of hps and about 45 watts of cfls. The temps hover at 87 right now. Not great but not horrible either. I have a dayton 265 for exhaust plus two fans moving air around and into the dayton. I'm going to finish these two out and buy either a coleman cabinet from lowe's or a c-13 and a vented hood to get everything just right temp wise and give myself some more vertical room. 4 feet just isn't enough if you want to grow without training etc. Thanks for the kind words 6 more weeks to go!

awsome man... best of luck to you and your babies!

Those are beautiful Mn! Keep up whatever your doing, because it sure seems to work.:thumbsup:

Regarding the heat do you think it's an issue of needing a bigger fan? Or maybe a separate one for the hood/cool tube?

Can't waint to see these ladies in a month.
:dance:

Thanks again notorious and pastor! About the heat I'm thinking it could be solved completely with a vented hood going into my dayton. Right now it's just a bat wing reflector. I mean its a 265c.f.m fan in a 32c.f. area so it should be alright. if I put an active intake on that might help as well but for now I'm just going to leave this cabinet until these babies are done. then I'll be moving to a taller cabinet with a vented hood. I'll take some more pics over the weekend.

Well here are my plants as of last night. They're both lookin pretty good and still growing strong. The stretch seems to have finally slowed down and now the plants seem to be concentrating on building up bud mass and trichs. First both plants and the big one.

A few more of the big one.

And some of the little one. This one is growing buds different. It's buds seem to be smaller but growing much fatter and denser. Should be interesting to keep watching the differences in the next 5 weeks. Let me knwo what everyone thinks. Oh yeah my plants are almost through their 3rd week of dlower going on the 4th in the next fews days.

nice plants :)

Just a little update everything is still rolling along smoothly. I some seeds in the mail yesterday. Papaya and Master Kush from Nirvana, Neveille's haze from female seeds, and my freebie was Stonehedge from Sagarmatha, a sativa that got second in the '98 CC and are normally $85 a pack. Nice freebie!!! Here are some pics about 3 weeks left.

And a few more let me know what you think.
