Been wanting to experiment with cloning and I ran across this cabinet for free a few days ago and it looked perfect my needs. It's 36w x 18d x 72h and I've divided it into a mother section on the bottom with the cloning section in the top. Only planning on one mother and 4-6 clones at a time.

For the mother area I have a 2' New Wave 4 bulb HO T5 fixture with 6500 K lamps and I'll get some kind of side lighting later as the mother grows.

For the clone area I have a 2' 2 bulb T8 fixture with cool white 4200K bulbs. If I need to, I'll get 6500 K bulbs but I think it will be ok for a week at time for clones.

Each section has a 120mm 120v fan for exhaust and holes are drilled through the floors, shelves, and bottom front for passive intake.

I'll get the aero cloner in the next couple of weeks from a friend but I still need to grow the mother up so no hurry there. The victim/mother is a Jedi I got as a nicely rooted clone a week ago that is still in the hydrohut till I finish this cab.

So what else do I need? A circulating fan for the mother I suppose. And a timer to run 18/6. From what I understand, light proofing is not important in vegging correct?
