my mini grow cab for six plants.

[justaseed]

for a 4x2x2 cab you could use a 250hps and supplimental cfl's . my main flower chamber was 4x2x6 and i used a 400hps and 4 42watt cfl's. it's gonna be tight with only 2' of height because the pot is gonna probably take up close to half the height leaving only 12-16" for the plant and lights. it's definetely possible you're just gonna have to find the shortest pot's with the largest volume possible. my brother has a cab that's only 26" tall so we cut a hole in the bottom for the pot to sit in so it doesn't take up any of the height. be creative!

i havent been able to update this thread, because ive been busy moving to my new place, i've also been tending my outdoor grow,so i haven't had time to go on the computer, i've made some improvements to the box, i added 2 60w cfls on both sides, rebuilt the carbon scrubber,and added a third 120mm computer fan to blow air across the lights, now the box runs at 75 degrees,perfect temp. i ran the box for 5 days without opening it,18/6. it stayed nice and cool, it's also very quiet, sounds like an old PC. has a quiet humming noise.

nice plants man. I LOVE YOUR CABINET...it is so bad ass. How did u do that bootleg(not calling it bad,thats just how i say it ) light system in post #12. I would like to do that so i dont have to use just cfl for flowering. Also my box is 4'x2'x2' what wattage of hps would you recommend. And also do you think a 265cfm dayton blower would be enough to cool it.
thanks....much love....nasty

the light system is two old 70w HIDs, 1hps,1mh, mounted parallel to each other, the reflector is the one that came with the metal halide,i did some slight modification to it:stoned: ,the reason it looks bootleg, is because i like to use materials i find around the apartment, i dont like to go and spend big$$$ on stuff i can build myself, i have a small backround in mechanical engineering, im also a full time motorcycle repair technician, so building things from scrap comes naturally, when building the cab, i tried to spend as little money as possible, .

well i still cant't get my camera to work so im going to borrow my buddy's camera to post the pics,, i've recently killed 22 afghani clones, witch i had rooting in the cupboard, these were the clones for my outdoor crop on 420 day a good friend that has a licence to grow medically,gave me 35 blueberry seeds and 35 white rhino seeds, i geminated 6 from each bag,one of the white rhino's turned out a trifoliate/ 3 cottolydeons/3 normal leafs,also known as a triploid, just yesterday i ran into an old friend who i havent seen for 5 years,we went over to his place to smoke some dank and look at his plants,he has a very nice NL SCROG 6 plants in a 7 foot tall 4 1/2 feet wide
and 4 feet deep closet, i told him my story about my afghani clones,
then he suddenly got up and left the room. he came back 1 minute later with a sandwitch baggy stuffed with seed 5000 plus. and gave it to me saying i have more use for this than him, i almost shit my pants, i asked him where he got them , he said he got them 3 years ago from his old boss, i asked him if it's hemp seed? he said he doesnt know, he never tried germinating them for the three years he owened them,he said he is dedicated to his NORTHERN LIGHTS, so i took the seed not knowing if it's ganga seed or hemp seed, i threw about 40 into a cup of disstiled water, to my surprise 32 germinated over night in less than 24 hours, so i planted them in soil, the should sprout by tommorow, i looked through the seeds and found big seeds, small seeds,
tiger striped seeds, dark green seeds, red seeds, brown seeds, and all of them seem to be germinating, so im waiting to see if i got the shitty industrial sativa hemp, or if there might be some good genetics after all, i got he seed for free so i dont care, tonight i will post the picture of my bag of seed, it would be nice to know if i have hemp seed or lots of bag seed, here are some pics of the one last last plant i grew in my old closet.

Nice plant, the middle pic.

I saw the bike on the background, and just went like "WOW!!!"... then I looked closer, and realized it's one of those mini-bikes. Nice optical illusion...

The plant looks nice.
