ello all i have built a new vegcab out of wooden boards i had lying around
it took me a couple of days to build and today i attached mylar to the inside
the only thing that needs doing to it now is it needs a bit of a paint on the outside and i need to sort some type of airflow out for the cab
the inside is sealed and there is no light leaks i know this as i got in it and closed the doors i saw no light after i sealed the gaps
ill post pics too let me know what ya think
cheers all :)
more pics cheers
cheers for the mylar swizzy as you can see it came in very handy
so thanks again :)
congrats on the new home for your ladies.. BUSTER
how about.. ventilaion?

Wooo, i though your grow was out of site lol?
Anyways, it loooks good, it'll be fine as soon as u get air flow sorted :):):)
I like it ;)
cheers guys
airflow and ventilation are 2 main factors i still have to sort out
this vegcab is out of sight in my shed lol
cheers all :)
very nice bust i like alot mike make me 1 to m8
Very nice buster... Please keep the updates coming... :) It's always very cool to see works-in-progress.
Nice buster. Love the pink square face lol.
Nice cab. Here are a couple of ideas to address airflow:
IIRC, you want the total size of your intake vent(s) to be 1.5x-2x bigger than your exhaust vent.
The intake vent(s) should be as low as possible- I actually drilled holes in the bottom of my cab, which is raised off the floor.
The exhaust vent should be as high as possible- I actually drilled the hole on the top of my cab.
Also, it is best the the intake and exhaust are on opposite sides of the cabinet to foster the most air movement and to drag the new air through as much of the cabinet as possible.
Since this is a veg cabinet and not a flowering cabinet, you may not need to worry about total darkness when the lights are off (assuming you are not going on a 24/0 light schedule). Buuuuttt... you can drill 2" holes for the intakes using a whole saw and use 2 BLACK pvc 90 degree elbows put together to form a light trap, to reduce any ambient light that may creep in (stupid sprawl and light pollution).

Good suggestions Krusty!
cheers for the suggestions krusty i like the elbow joint idea
well today i had my red spectrum envirolite turn up so tonight i switched bulbs in my closet and turned the light cycle to 12/12
then i took my blue spectrum envirolite and slapped it in my vegcab and transfered all my cuttings to the there new home
i still need to do a bit of work to it like airflow and ventilation and i need to make a reflector for my light
my light is just standing in there which will do till tomoz or the day after when i can get the materials to build this new reflector anyway ill post a few pics of what it looks like up to now
cheers all :)
i have been hard at work on my new reflector today it is similar to my other homemade one here is a link for you to see http://boards.cannabis.com/showthrea...made+reflector
well what i did was i took the casing off my old microwave and cut it to size with a jigsaw then cut some wood to make a bracket to go on the reflector to hold the light
well i will post some pics for you all to see
im one step closer to finishing this vegcab
cheers all :)
OooooOOOoooooo....
Nice. :D :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
