Post them pix

Post them pix

Looks like a nice cabinet. You ought to post the pics here, it's alot easier. Go Advanced and just click'um, remove the "-thumb" if you want them full size. Have you or are you going to automate the whole system? Like hum/temp/CO2/exhaust controller. I've been thinking it would be nice to control via PC and software. Later.

PACKN2PUFF....yes i have thought about going to my pc but this system is so contained that it is way easy to control. I'll probably go there when i master this one. and i go larger.thanks for the info on the pics. i'll do a better job on the next ones i post..
RACKETEER...thanks for the help on the pics..lol i feel so dumb!! ha!!.if you really want to know about how i built the box and have some dementions to ponder on i will relay any info you want. my friend is growing in the same system and he has only 3 plants. he gets almost 2 pounds a harvest. the plants fruit big buds in here due to the intense lumens they gather bieng so close to the light. and with a sealed invironment with the a/c and all the goodies its hard to go wrong on climate control. my clones are starting to look good and i'll let you guys know the peogress. i'm growing 6 plants for starters untill i iron out the bugs. then i will expand the box and go bigger. i should get some good results but we'll see. anything could happen..lol

...... post or you can have racketeer do it for ya....he..he.. right on racket...
issack I would have like to have seen the doors a little higher, but still very nice. Check out these lamp hangers for your pots. You can easily pull them down and they will stay at that height. I use them on my lamp hood. They are awesome, never go back to chains again. The growshop had them on all their demo stuff. Kinda spendy, but 4 would hold 44lbs. Heres the pic:


The thumb screws adjust tension as needed: Pull'um down look at them, push'um back up! I love'um, Later.

i dont know to much about airconditioning but shouldn't your air conditioner be at the top of cab cuz the cold air will stay lower in the room cuz its heavier i think

the air that blows out of the a/c goes straight up out of the vents. fans blow accross the glass to move cool air. the fans that blow into the basement restuctures the air moving threw a ionizor. and back out the basement bellow the a/c. heat is not a problem with this system. i just set the temp on the a/c and shut the doors....

I use 18/6 for my veg growth and it lest the plants rest during the dark period. Actually thee ae growing during the dark period. Store light during daylight process daylight during the dark period.

Great looking cabinet. I like the idea of making the lights stationary and moving the plants. I use the same analogy, except I built a second cabinet shorter and wider for vegging closer to lights and move plants to the tall cabinet when they are 18"-24" tall.

Issack,
Now that's a first class job,I didnt see the spec's anywere tho,could ya maybe post some particular's for us,18/6 is the standard grow cycle,I have read somewhere that there is no benefit by going over 18,or so little it's not worth the extra juice!
