CRAZYWILL: thanks so much for responding to my question(s).. i have been worried alot about the fan since i have a DIY carbon scrubber. mine "seems" like the ones you see online but it is kinda fat, so i am not shure how it measures up to the fans needed.

i too am building my components as i go, i want ot be able to just "put everything up" when i finally get the closet, i guess i will post pics then from the remote location, once my closet is up.

:jointsmile: gonna do a "promix" soilless type (DIY ofcourse) with organic nutes. trying to see if i cen get around the prices of the CO2 emitters as well.

my cool tube is a DIY out of a hurricane style vase. they are mainly used to cover large candles, open at the bottom (MICHEALS craft store, PIER-1, TARGET, etc.). i have had a hard time finding one long enough (one i have now is a inch longer than the bulb, think it could be longer) so i may have to just go ahead and cut the bottom off of a taller tubular vase.

trying to keep a VERY LOW "MAIL IT TO MY HOME/ ORDER OFF LINE" profile. most. already have my clone/ seed hook up so i got that out of the way as well.

:jointsmile: i am all about info trading so if there is anything i may help with just let me know since we are both pretty much at thebuilding stage. thanks for responding once again i can get a little obcessed with the whole "is this right " thing.
