TURN THIS




INTO THIS IN JUST A FEW STEPS


. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Step 1 Build the Cabinet

I put mine together this far and then it's time to add some air handling and lighting.

I add 2x4's under this to beef it up for extra weight handling

To start I drilled some big holes for air exhaust.



This is a mock up of the exhaust.

Blue thing in back is flower chamber.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Step 2 Exhaust.

Add the fan I am using a 4" inline fan from Home Depot $24.97 http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/...ctId=100073963 This is not a very strong fan I am just using it as a booster fan to dump the air from this cab to the flower chamber. The flower chamber has a blower with the carbon filter.


This fan:
Amperage : .30A.
Assembled Depth (In Inches) : 4 In.
Assembled Height (In Inches) : 4 In.
Assembled Weight (In LBS) : 2
Assembled Width (In Inches) : 6 In.
Brand/Model Compatibility : INDUCTOR In-Line Duct Fan
Cubic Feet Per Minute (CFM) : 80CFM.
Diameter : 4in.
EnergyPlus : N
Heat : 40 Deg. F to 110 Deg. F
Size : 4
Voltage : 110V.
Watts : 30W.

Next install the fan. I put some blue foam board under it to reduce noise.



I wired the fan to a standard male wall plug. Easy to plung into power strip.

Last you need a tee and some 4" hose and duct parts.



Tape and seal all seams. This way the smells stay were you want them.

This is the underside exhausts. (finished areas)

Hook the hose to the flower room.



. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Step 3 Lighting

I use 1 box centered in each grow area (2 req'd). Also use a lamp cord to wire the light it come with a thumb wheel switch in the cord. (2 req'd)



Next just use these.

mother side

clone side.



Next add some eye sheids from the light.



It's Mylar gift wrap and the alum parts you were to hang your close from (left over cab parts).



. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Step 4 Clone Side Water Proof

I use heave duty draw lines from Walmat or Target to line the compartmen. Tape all seam with alum tape.









As a bonus when the cabinet is not in use I store this stuff.



Last drill some air inlet holes in the door.



. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Step 5 Mother Side

Not to much left. Add some air inlet holes and put some liner on the floor.



In the future I will paint or add something for the light reflecting.





Both sides


. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Step 5 Electric

Some power strips and a timer. (timer not in picture)



. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Step 5 Load It Up and Grow

Some extra space under the clones



the grow kitten said this is safe

nice i like it for people that don't have much space and need to be stealth

Very nice! I like how streamlined this is. Im gonna give this a go when i get the chance.

If it's good enough for the grow kitten, it's good enough for me. I'll drive over to Lowe's right now, sleep in the parking lot, and be first in line when they open tomorrow!

Looks really good! I'm currently having space issues myself and am thinking about going with something like this to suit my Mother/Clone/Vegging needs, so that I can keep my main closet grow for all Flowering plants. I have some questions, reading the customer review on this particular product, they all shit on it. Say its too flimsey. How would you defend or argue that? I'm looking into a similar model by 'Elements' sold at Lowes that does not have the partition that divides the cab down the middle.

How many mothers, rooted clones, and cuttings would you say you could fit in such a space? I would like to have 3 mothers, and as many rooted clones and cuttings as I could comfortably fit to keep things nice and snug and cozy.


Please feel free to scope my previous posts and threads discussing my new grow-lab designs and blueprints! Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.


Dr Funkenstein

Randy's FAQ's for New Growers

Thank's all of you for the +reps, If this is a helpful thread please vote 1 to 5 stars at the top. I'm a big boy so I can take 1's thru thru 5's just vote I count how many vote not so much the value but I do like 5's.

Also the grow rooms are almost shut down for the move to a first floor flat (no stairs for MrsRocket).

I do like to be stoned but MrsRockets needs come first. So if growing is a possibalte in the new place (still looking no f'ing curb cut were i can aford, i not poor wtf does $950 a mount get f f f f f , im sorry) back on track, sorry.

So I plant to rebuild with a lot of up grads. Flee free to brainstorm away MrsRocket really want me to try ang grow, I can do very little for now. So this may be a smaller stelth.

Step 1 Find a place to live. 3 need:

1-MrsRocket can be alone at times.
2-In my budget.
3-some level of grow T-12 veg and cfl's flower of If I can I would like to use the 430 watt hps

This is the other cabinet Air Handling for 4'x4'x8' 430watt flower room

nice set-up.. i'm thinking of going that route soon....

looks good to me, i wanted to do sumthing like that but had to build mine because of space. BTW your picture makes me miss playing magic... its been a good 10 years since i picked up a deck.

Would a 400w hps be too much heat for this?
I plan on putting it where you have your mothering chamber.
