New small growbox build

[MicroGrower2011]

Sorry for the lack of specs

FFOF + Light Warrior Mixed Soil
3 Gallon Potting Containers

Organic Homemade Nutrients.

Vegetation Room
150w-175w MH {Air Cooling}
2 12w T5's 6400K
4" Inline Exhaust fan
Passive Intake

Flowering Room
150w - 250w HPS {Air Cooling}
2 12w T5's 3000K
4" Inline Exhaust fan
Passive Intake


Of course this is what I am shooting for, it is subject to modification

 

[MicroGrower2011]

Here's a micro update, added some rubber matting for the bottom of the vegetation room and the bottom of the flowering room. I am going to be cutting some drainage holes with PVC light traps on the bottom of the drainage hole and a long shallow bucket to catch the water. this way when I flush, in either box at any point in time, I won't have to disturb the plant by moving it around, especially when it has grown a lot. I also added some more hardware, 2 lock Hasp's and door handles.

Also got this bad boy for my cloning room....

So cool, is that light kit specifically for growing?

Namaste

 

[MicroGrower2011]

Yesir, it is great for starting up clones and nurturing seedlings especially

I bought those same garbage cans to grow in, but never used them.
Square pots or grow bags will maximize your rooting space, compared to round containers.

 

[MicroGrower2011]

Thanks Sgt. I was just using that as a height perspective, I defiantly will be using square potting.

I am changing my lighting specs a bit for my rooms for spacing issues let me know if this would be overkill

Flowering
250w HPS Open air

Vegetative
250w MH Open air

Open air is my option now because the lack of width in each room. Damn cool tubes take up to much room, Unless I go for t5 in vegetative, and 150w HPS in flowering with extra t5 supportive lighting. Any opinions? 250w open air overkill? Heating issue? I think I can hack it but I am not much of a risk taker

 

[Arthur Dent.]

Sounds cool, but what about Dark periods?

Namaste

 

[MicroGrower2011]

I mean open air as in no cool tube, just a reflector with fans on top blowing across the room to the exhaust cooling down the housing unit.

 

[Arthur Dent.]

I see said the blind man, yeah sounds cooking, I ran 250whps with a PC fan mounted on a home made reflector that I made out of a bucket, worked like a dream.

Check my album it was the G13 i grew in that cab.

Namaste

 

[MicroGrower2011]

Got everything all figured out, all I need is some digital temperature meters, and install my circulatory fans.

Has 424CFM exhaust. Very efficient for this high wattage small space.

^250w MH Room.

^250w HPS room.

Happy growing!

Thanks to everyone that helped with your input.

 

[StupidBoy]

And how might this be?

You can't bring such a lovely lady into the room and not introduce her to your friends LOL.
Very healthy looking plant Man. Looks primed for a scrog

 

[Glaus]

That is one badass cab.

 

[MicroGrower2011]

Been ages Since a update....

Heres how my lady looks now..6 days flowering under 250w HPS

UPSKIRT! For all you perverts out there

Outside the box, the pH levels started to lower a bit to like 5.8 because I was letting my girlfriend water her over the weekend and she started showing slight signs of magnesium deficiency but I am correcting it now with a big flush and a couple of days of epsom salt sprays.

Other then that, As you can see I have been fairly busy tending to the ladies.

I will Update as she progresses.

 

[#1cheesebuds]
