i was growing with cfls for over 3 years n decided i needed to upgrade my setup and i had a armoir layin around.
i went and picked up a 400watt light/ballast/reflector and went to work... basicly a test of carpentry n building skills...lol.
This is what i ended up with...
it started off a 40"w x 18"d x 60" h armoir that had 3 very well built in drawers and 3 compartment bins at the top. all drawers had a extra panel between each drawer that was very well built as in old not the new cheap stuff. took 3 days to gut it out.
Mother area is 13"h x 17"w x 16"d.
Drying/Intake area is 13"h x 18"w x 16"d.
filter on the back to keep the nasty stuff out. with string at the top to hang them as they dry.
The flower area is 48"h x 33"w x 22"d (at the deepest point 16"d at base)
2x 5gal buckets. dont mind the newports... had to use the carton as a light difuser/air director for the mother chamber. theres also 2x 4" intakes at the bottom and a 4" exaust hole at the top with a 6" duct fan reduced at both ends to 4".
need to get a ocilating fan/timer/ and thermometer and im good to go i belive. let me know what u guys think.
