[coloradomedical]

Welcome to my grow show.

First off, I would like to shout out some appreciation:
ScrubNinja, FreezerBoy, StealthDragon, Dr. Greengenes, Thunderkul, VerdantGreen, Anti, ShroomDr, RezDog, and ojD.

Of course a thanks to the other 10,000 threads I have read here and on the OG.

I have a wonderful box that I have been building from scratch, but it is not quite complete. So, I will leave all those details and pictures until later. Gotta make you all wait for something.

I have planted these all to FFOF and after a 12 hour soak, all popped after three days except the Brainstorm, which I still have hope.

I will be using Dr. GG's Method some in FFOF and some in COCO.

Nutes: 6/9 GH, Molasses, eventually coolbloom and will get some calmag if needed.

I will be using the non autos as mothers, and I hope to add SSSDH and maybe two others to the mother cab.

Box: You shall see this pretty thang later

I will Update next when I have the box complete and everyone in their new home.

no interest in my grow, and I spent all this time building and taken pics of the steps on my cab sad days.

you don't need to seek others approval/support for your grow, this should be done for yourself


personally i like to see construction details of peoples grow, so get those box pics up

 

[coloradomedical]

The for myself is in my room and I stare at it all day. I want to benefit others out there, but if no interest time has no need to be wasted.

But, since you pulled up a seat, it shall be done.

I feel ya on the interest. Alot of people will pop in and look but won't leave a comment. You have some healthy seedlings there. I will keep lookin in for updates. Post away it is your thread. Love to see the setup though.

My brainstorm which I originally thought failed, came up a few days ago after i helped it out of it shell.... it looked dead when I pulled the seed case off, put it back in the dirt, two days later Twins popped. One looked like it was bruised and deformed so I seperated them immedeately.... Same pot though, funny thing... The both made it barely making it anyway. They are only on their first set of leaves, the rest are putting out their 4th. Made me excited, that was the strain I was really looking forward too.

Hi coloradomedical,
I dont think there's no interest. You are doing a very smart thing using knowledge gained from that impressive list. You sound confident, know what you want and have a definite safe plan. Very very smart.

Thing is though...its been done before by all those folks. You've posted pics of seedlings and a good plan. But we've all seen it before. So have you. Lets see the cab.

Keep updating and folks will watch and you'll start getting posts when the buds show up.

Good luck and best wishes,
OO

 

[coloradomedical]

Of for sure, I am finishing up a few things on the cab... taking pics along the way... So, as soon as it is good to go I will be posting it in one entire run.

 

[coloradomedical]

Unfortunately, I am still waiting for my plugs for the pl-l bulbs I only have two, need four.

sounds interesting. wanna see the cab you built. i, too run a drbud style sog. works great as long as you dont have fungus gnats....GRRRR..little bastards

 

[redeyesurprise]

Looking good so far! I too am interested in seeing your cab setup and particularly in your fan/filter combo. I saw you post in another thread that you were using an S&P fan. What type of filter are you using with it and do you use any sort of speed controller? I'll be kicked back, sending good vibes and watching this grow come to fruition.

I got rid of gnats with predator nematodes. I inoculated everthing. soil, plants,castings, p traps in the sinks even the toilet tanks. No gnats at all left. I heard mesquito dunks work too.

Cab Building

Cab Building



The front door closed to the box. It was built using finish wood from Home Depot. Dimensions are 4hx2x2, I had all the cuts except for holes for exhaust and intake done at Home Depot *free of charge* Just make sure you have a good detailed design/measurements of what you want cut. They only make straight cuts. I used Butt joints on all joints along with 1 1/2 inch wood screws and wood glue. Make sure you MEASURE MEASURE MEASURE. You don't want to mess up your screwing you know. The box turned out really solid, it supported the weight of my girl and I without a pop.



The rear of the box shows the top cut out for the exhaust and the two bottom ones are for the intakes.



Shows the shelves, the inside deminsions are as fallows:
Top is the Utility and its 23x23x7h
middle is Mother/Clone and Fan area the mother/clone is 15x23x15h
bottom is Bloom 23x23x23



This is my S and P TD100 mounted into the second level



Fan after it has been sealed off from the mother/clone section



Exhaust of the fan into the utility and the electrical outlet. I used weather stripping and caulk to seal the fan into the room. I also have the fan hooked up to the high side, with no speed controller. All you can hear is the rush of air... Which somehow I am going to come up with a muffling system... yet to be figured out though.... Though, it doesn't sound any louder then a vent in your house.



Carbon filter, made of two baskets.... If you would like further info just let me know. *fan pushed like a champ through it*



Mother/clone room with the moms in their new home. You can see the intake and exhaust for the room leading into the fan room.


Today's pic



Bloom box *in progress.... I just need two more sockets Slow people*



All the supplies needed to get the action going.



The box with the 3 23 watters in the mom cab stays at 2 degrees above ambient. I figure the 4 55 watters in triple the space should stay about the same. We shall see though. I will most likely add a mini fan in both rooms to blow some air around.... and if need be I will put computer fans on the intakes.

If there are any questions, please let me know and I will answer as best as possible. Also, if you have any suggestions just let me know. The cab is sealed with weather stripping and caulk. I am already trying to think up a CO2 system. Maybe, cut off the outside world all together if I can find a mini A/C dehumidifier.

Wow, you have really built yourself a top notch cab there man. Can't wait to see it all filled up with tasty dankness...

Keep up the good work!
