Hey DJ nice thread! I've been lurking around since pre-construction and I must say your box is up and running nicely.
I'm in a 250W box myself, with 62.5W/Sq ft. It's my own version larger version of the NGB box, similar to what you were originally brainstorming. I also grow in a house where 2 people who live here (plus frequent guests) do not know. I find it funny they've never heard the loud humming coming through the wall from my closet.
I just finished my first flowering run from seed last month and am re-vegging one girl right now as well. She's turning into a quite a bush.
I have nothing in flower right now, but I'm mothering up some og kush, bubba kush, sour diesel, strawberry diesel, and brasilian skunk, along with my re-vegging grape crack. I had to build a seperate mother box for these girls.
Next cycle, I'm going to try a full run flowering clones in 16oz cups. I've been curious about this method for a while, as I noticed you have as well. Hopefully yields turn out well.
Also, I noticed you kept a cascadia male for possible breeding purposes. That bagseed that you've always grown looks like a good candidate for a cross. Good looking indica characteristics coupled with the nearly pure sativa cascadia. Great variation possible there...
Keep up the good work, I'll be hanging around watching...

so its been a very long time since i have posted....as everyone knows life gets crazy sometimes. well i have harvested my c-4s, my bagseed and my snocap. from the c-4s and bagseed i pulled 3.5 to 4oz. and i think the snocap when its dry should be around 1.5 to 2oz. then all i have left is my grapehaze. i will try and post some pics of them before i harvested them soon.

well Dr Bloom, ask and you shall recieve.
heres the picks from my harvest, although i think theres only c-4 and the grape haze.
i am actually harvesting the grape haze tomorrow. todays is day 98 for it!!
should be ok...never filled out that much but oh well.
i cleaned the cab and what not...and am still battling mites...but i think i am winning. next round i will be flowering trainwreck, strawberry cough, cascadia, and perhaps some more snocap. i have to many plants that i want to flower...haha. might try and work in one of my bagseed ladies too!! they are some of the best smoke i have ever had.
well heres all the pics i got.
c-4s
and heres a shot of my grapehaze.
hope everyone is doing well. and thanks for stopping by.
should be back when i get my next round underway.

howdy!!! hope whoever still looks at this has a good time and learns something. well i got some more good news from the 400watt champ. got some great mississippi mud thats smells incredible!!! its day 66 and will prob go to 70 at least. trichs are still pretty clear. i also have some ice thats bought done being harvested. other than them i have another mm and one of my uber special bagseeds coming down in a week, and another week after that i got 2 more of the bagseeds. all the while putting more ladies back into the cab to keep my great perpetual grow going. all the ladies are in 2 gal grow bags which allows me to yield anywhere from 1-2.5 oz per plant.

ice

thanks for the complements guys!! i really appreciate it. i am rather sad that i will be upgrading because i wont be using my cab anymore 
but i will have alot more space to grow and the fan and light will both be implemented into the next grow.
the 400watt mh/hps light will be used for veg then over to the 1200watts for flower. im getting realy excited!!! Only a month to go then i can start building it.

thanks alot bigtimer! i put alot of time, energy, and money into em and they provide me with the great buds 
i will keep it around cause ya never know when you or someone else might need it. I am also very happy that with minimal runs i fine tuned it fast and i have gotten such awesome yields from it. the best again was my first grow with cascadias and a super-g from bacchus.
that grow i got 10oz!!!!!!!!
with a 400watt you really cant complain about that. and the weed was some of the greatest i have ever had.
thanks everyone

whoa dude! didnt realize you were still around! i remember you from the micro forum from back in '06! great to see you are around and doing very very well! loving this 400watt cab and cant wait to see what you do with the 1200w! wish i could upgrade as quickly as you do haha. im bout to step up to a 400watt so not far behind ya. one question though, have you considered vertical lighting?

hey tngreen!!! its good to see you again. how have ya been. ive been running nice and smooth as you read in my thread. no real major problems except when i got mites. no more mites no more problems.
if i have a problem its too many clones and i have to kill em.
the micro grow was really fun and it taught me what i needed to know. it also got me crazy about growing and am now legal so i will for sure continue for a very very long time to come.
i just harvested my latest mississippi mud saturday. the dry weight today was about 2.5oz. from a 2gal grow BAG!!! i was so shocked, i knew miss mud was awesome but it yields soooo much. i have also dialed in my cab and the miss mud. i have a great perpetual system in the cab now so i harvest a plant about ever 2 weeks, give or take a few days. and especially with a bunch of miss muds i get a ton of bud.
anyways enough with the high ranting...haha
i have considered vertical lighting. i am still pondering if that would be a better option than horizontaly.i was thinking that in the future when i get more money if i had the 1200watts horizontal and then had another 600 or a 400 vertical. this way it would get both. we will see tho. i think i will for sure buy the lights with a good aircooled hood. if i want to try vertical i have a place near buy i can buy more glass tubes for a cooltube setup.
thanks for finding me again, i was away for a bit but i couldnt stay away forever.
take care bro
