wats up, your box is great. im gonna be building one, heres the plans.

the smaller holes are 3" that i will use 90 degree elbows to make light traps, th 6" hole that leads from the flower room to the (top left)carbon filter/vortex fan room. im gonna use a 250w HPS for flowering and 3 55w CFLs for mothers. for the 250w HPS im gonna use a air cooled hood with 6in openings an 6in ducting to connect one of the openings to the fan that con nects to the carbon filter.
how did you make the plants slide in an out? anything else that i might have over looked let me know thanx

Great looking design King and thanks for the complements.

The plants are sitting on 3/4 inch plywood with 100lb droor slides attached for the flower room (not installed in my cab yet). The mother room is though and I think I only used 50lb capacity.

oh i think i found a solution for the sound of the fan. use dynomat an cover the inside of the space that its in. its kind of like mylar as it is sticky on one side but its not a reflector for light its a reflector for sound. it is designed for keeping the noise from subwoofers inside a car, so its louder in there but not on the outside. i havnt tried it on a box like this only in my cars but i will be doing it to this box when i build it. if you want to buy it google car audio, most sites will have it. or if the walmart near you has a big car department they might have it in sheets of 12"x12", as the one near me does.

another quick bud pic.



Now for an update on the mothers and clones.

This pic is of the second and third set of clones already vegging in the room. In this pic thay are N deficent but are now all green and touching the flourecents so i'm going to go ahead and add bothe sets of clones tonight. It's ony been a week since I started flowering but my mother room is getting crowded and I need to make room for the next set of clones.


You can check out the root system on these babys. Thay were ready to go in a week ago. I was afraid of not having enough clones from my small mothers but I was wrong.

This pic is of the blueberry and DWxGB clones. mostly Blueberry.



These were ready to go into the system a week ago.



I also have a couple pics of the DWxGB clones 3 days into flowering. thay stretch about 3/4 of an inch a day.

OK, I have a quick up date on the flower room.

This first pic is of unit #1 a little over a week of flowering.



The DW x GB puts off some pretty large leafs. I like it.


Also a couple of pics of unit #1 and unit #2 together.






You can see how large the clones have become when just flowered at 4 and 5 inches. I was hoping for about 12 to 16 inches a plant but these might hit 15 to 20 would be my guess. I need to start flowering at about 3 inches next time with the DWxGB clones.

Another pic of Unit #2 a couple of days into flowering.

I have 3 DWxGB clones, 1 Blueberry clone, and one kalimist clone. All the clones were about 5 inches when thay went in besides the kalimist clone which was about 1 inch. It's kinda hard to see in this pic..

A quick update of the flower room.

Added unit #3 to the flower room. Their is 5 blueberry clones all just under 3 inches.


Everything looked great untill three days later. This happen.






I kind of looks like brown algae but it's not. It's lighter brown and a little less slimy. The roots seem to get more weak if the culpret is brown algae . I believe it has something to do with adding the Advanced Organic supplements (Sweet and Carbo load) with my BC Nutes by Technaflora. It smells really bad also which leads me to believe it is the organics. The Sweet specifically. I'll be running some tests very soon. And it only happens after adding additives.

Maby organics and synthetic ferts don't mix???

Can anyone help on this subject?? All comments welcome. Thanks

I had a sample of sweet from botincare but can't remember if it was organic. Did you mix synthetic with organic?? I think i'll just go with the entire Technoflora line just to avoid anymore problems.
