High all.
After about 2 years of growing AK 48 micro SOG, dr Bud style, I decided to abandon the old box because it was on the balcony and regulating temperature in winter used more electricity than the light itself. Plus I had a massive spider mite infestation.
So I made a simple box that actually looks like it's in set with the rest of my furniture, for stealth purposes, and in order to save some head space I decided to use pl-l lights. Here are the specs:
H x W xD: 70x 50 x 60 cm (19x27x22 '')
lights- 4x55w osram dullux (3000K)
ventilation - one 33 Cfm fan (220v AC type, manufactured by Sunon), one 80mm PC fan for circulation, no scrubber, no light traps, passive intake
I use 1L milk and juice cartons compo sana soil mix.
This is what it looks like
Right now I keep 33 clones of Mandala seeds Satori, putting in 3 clones in every week. I'm still dialing it in so my results are inconsistent, last harvest was 4 grams per plant, but I'm sure I can do better.
Also I have temperature issues, as temps at canopy level are about 30C, I'm not sure if I need to put in another exhaust fan or drill more intake holes. Thanks to my redneck design, neither is really a problem.
Also, there is light bleach on one clone, about 6 inches from the light, I guess i've let let that one grow too tall or my homemade reflectors create hot spots, I can't be sure.
Anyway, all comments and suggestions are welcome.
