Hi After a fair bit of reading on this site, I've decided to build a grow cupboard. So far i have a 400W HPS lamp with shade, a 21W fan and a cupboard. Here's some pics and the dimensions: So I guess i'd just like to know what you guys think? Im planning on growing 4 plants, but i guess I might get some males, so i might just end up flowering 1 or 2. BTW, I have white rino seeds. Im thinking that I might not be able to get the light high enough, and I might run out of room when the plants flower? Also, do you think I have enough airflow? The fan is extracting air, and seems to be fairly powerful.. Maybe I should put another fan in the cupboard pointing …

I'd really appreciate you guys having a quick look at what I plan on buying and putting together and offering any advice or changes you would recommend making. I haven't done this before. Setting is one bedroom apartment, no inspections, electricity included in rent, currently running a computer 24/7 + other things, so I'm planning on keeping that turned off as much as I can for the duration of the grow + switching normal bedroom light to a cfl to try and avoid any attention, should be ok I think. Besides electricity, odour and noise is a concern of course but only from outside my room. It will be serious seeds chronic from seed, probably 2 or 3 plants, depends on s…

Hey all, Been a while. Had a fridge die right at the time I was pondering on a new mum/clone setup, a trip to Bunnings later and here it is. Nothing to put in it at this stage, have some CS f1's and some M60's soaking in paper atm. Just a regular old fridge, nothing to see here..move on.. But wait.. Turned sideways it can hold two trays and heater mats.

Hey guys, im on the verge of putting my cab together and my only real worry is all the power cables inside the cab and how to arrange the cables or modify the cab to allow the cables to exit the cab without any light leakage. I was thinking of getting a power board so i can plug everything into it and just make a hole for the one cable to come out of the cab, then i'd just put some tape over the hole and cable, but my issue about that is the humidity within the cab, will it affect the power board or short anything out? Peace, Crunchy.
