exhaust is a 250 cfm 4" inline duct fan connected to the reflector with a couple of computer fans for intake
reservoir 15 gallons with 520 gph pump.
humidifier
oscillating fan
walls are Styrofoam with a Mylar lining

after many adjustments I brought to
temp around 75-85. humidity about 30-35%.
I keep tweaking things such as trays, table, fans.

started with a budget of $250 (yea right) probably could have saved a few $, but figured might as well do it right. beside after I got started I could not stop.


ballast $140
reflector $85
trays,hoses,nutes,timers $80
duct fan $32
humidifier $25
pump $19
total $381
almost done spending money. few more tweaks
