Hello!
I've been growing mj for some time now (cca 5 years) and have done some outdoors and indoors, but this year i decided to make it really good, to last for few years without changing. Main goal is, to make a mothers and clones area and a flowering area, so i can do an indoor or two in a year, but mostly to prepare myself for outdoor season. In the meanwhile, veggies will be sunbathing there.
Now I have the plan mostly finished and I want your opinion, sugestions, critics, etc.
--links to the photos are below--
In the designing process I tried to make this closed as silent as possible, and to make it look like an ordinary closet, without strange holes and doors, etc. Restrictions were mostly equipement related. I decidet to do this, with the vents, lights, equipement I already have at home.
To make the closet silent and ''normal'' i've put all the holes (IN/OUT) on the back of the closet.
Almost all of the pipes and vents are also hidden in the back.
Upper area is a vegetation area (75cm X 40cm, height 76cm). I've decided to put 4 CFL vertically. So it is ok for motherplants (20cm+) and clones (5cm+) at the same time. Lights can be moved left-right to achieve optimal distance light-plant.
Lower area is for flowering and is devided from vegetaton area with cca 6cm of thermal insulation. I have HPS 250w with cooltube with a seperate ventilation circut. I plan to have 20 pots (size:15/15/20) on 95cm X 65cm, height 97cm, and I'll be growing in sog technique.
All intakes will be pasive, OUT flowering vents are 150m3/h, and i have 2 whitch will make 2 OUT lines, so one can go down/ be turn off; all other vents are comp vents. All vents will be elesticaly fixed on main construction.
All electricity, timers, weather stations will be stored left of the vege box, in the eye-height. All the data-machinery will be placed so you see everything when you open the closet (but not growing or electricity area).
Each growing area will have tent style door from waterproof, airproof and light proof fabric so I can have only 2 ground-celing doors on the outside of the closet, making it look like a normal closet and when i open the door, plants don't get exposed to the light. Second reason is, that it will help with the sound/ smell problem.
And now some questions:
Have a nice one & take care!

And now some questions:
- What to fill in a muffler, but to be suitable for a living area? So no dangerous materials, please. I know i could use old clothes, cardboard, or smth similar. Would normal wool work, has anybody tried that?
- What to do, to make the closet as silent as possiblle?
- What type of auto-watering system would you suggest? In a separate closet.
- What type of humidity system would you suggest?
- What do you thing about overall design?
Have a nice one & take care!
