Just whiped up a small mother plant cabinet today. Holds three mums - enough to do about 40 good size goods. To cut down on heat in the cabinet and have extra head height ive cut a hole on top of the cabinet and installed a aircooled reflector on top - attached a inline fan onto the reflector. I did remove the glass from the aircooled hood so fresh air will be passively brought into the cabinet (if a need to cool it down more i will put glass back in and install a seperate air out fan). Inside the cabinet I wraped it some reflective wall wrap insulation(mylar would be better but i get this stuff for free. Lighting consists of 1 400 watt MH. Resi will be out side …

Just curious as to what everyone's advice would be on my new grow box. The size is; 172cm HEIGHT 83cm WIDTH 102cm DEPTH I was thinking of having 4 plants inside two tubs, 50LT, two plants per tub. There is enough room for this easy. One dual air-pump with two airstones in each tub. Two water heaters inside the tubs as well, one in each. Two 15cm desktop fans on either side of the wardrobe with a 250mm ceiling exhaust fan built in to the top of the box. The light i was thinking of was a 600W. The advice i need........ is there enough room for 4 plants in two tubs growing, height/length wise, enough room for the plants to 'grow'? is it going to be hot in t…

Because of my new living arrangements,my grow space has been nearly halved. So i had to whip up a new grow box. It's basically a pine frame with sheets of mdf surrounding it. The size is 2m x 1.2 x 1.2. The inside has been lined with panda film. The thing is,i will be using a friends lighting sys.(he is using my 1000W) It is a 400W son-t-argo,but the reflector has a built-in ballast,which i didn't know before i built my box. I'm worried about the heat that it will put out. The grow box will have a constant supply of fresh air plus another little fan blowing on plants. It also has a good exh sys. I'm just wondering whether that will be enough. It can get pretty hot where i…

Does anyone know if panda film can catch fire if it comes into contact with your light (400 watt). Also how about hot-spots in a small grow cabinet. Cabinet measures 900mm width x 450mm depth x 1200mm height (The lobay light only just fits in). Thanks Chief
