High everyone
I've had a couple of threads here before, but without internet at home, it's been difficult to continue on my logs here..
Now i've moved to a new place and i've been ordering internet as well, so i'm gonna start update as much as possible again on my logs..
This weekend i've been building my new micro lab.. I had a big DR120 tent, but my new apartment is too small for that, so i got out to find some cabinets and closets to make my own design on a new lab that can fit in the new apartment.
I found two file cabinets at a second hand shop, i got both for 20 euros. I fell in love with them and planned everything in my head. The two cabinets are gonna work for mothers and clones, one for mothers with a reflector and 85w cfl (E40 socket) and one for clones, lined up with white plastic and a 65w cfl (E27 socket). Right now i'm not using any fans, i have fans, but can't find them yet But it's no problem, it's just to open the doors and the plants are fine.. I'm gonna put out my pics with a small step by step guide to how i build it, feel free to ask questions
The cabinet
With the drawers
Then i took out everything, and cleaned it well inside..
Then i lined the whole inside with white plastic and some mylar.
To put the drawers together, i took a small piece of plywood and glued it to the drawers with some plastic and screws..
I had one reflector extra, so i put it in the mother cabinet with a 85w cfl light.. I put it in the roof, and the wires fit nicely outside the edge of the reflector, creating a clean and tidy space without any wires in the way..
This is the back of the cabinet, like i said, i don't have any fans atm, but i will install it when i find them I'm gonna use passive air with vents, and install a small outtake fan.
This is my cloning cabinet, as you can see, instead of a reflector i used a normal E27 socket with some mylar on the top. The light is a 65w cfl.
Then it was just to screw everything together again. My hands are killing me, i don't have any electric tools, i only used a screwdriver for both the cabinets
Here they are finished, well, for now..
My thread was titled 500w, and many of you might think that i'm done, but no. I have a closet as well. But it's not been built yet. I have a 400w HPS that i'm gonna use for flowering, and i'm planning on designing a closet on top of the cabinets with this. Everything is on wheels as well, for easy handling and maintenance.
My growing plan will be micro SOG like Dr bud.. I plan on taking clones every 3 week, and harvest 20 small plants every 3 week for a perpetual harvest.. In total i will be having my four mother plants, vanilla kush, sweet deep grapefruit, and two mothers of blue cheese bagseed. And 20 clones in the other cabinet. And finally around 60 small plants in the flowering closet. As i'm living in Spain atm, i also have some clones flowering outside now. And one new auto from paradise seeds that i got in canamo magazine "Pandora".. Pics and more updates will be out as soon as i get internet at home
Take care now..
Bye bye then..!
