I was thinking maybe you can add another piece of wood to the back of the doors on the cabinet, so when you close them the wood in the back will cover all leaks?

I agree, it is a good idea but my light leaks are at the hinges. I'm gonna attempt to use some of the left over weather strip on it and see how it goes. My one plant is doing great, I will post a picture soon.

Do you still have the fan over the light blowing down towards the plants? In that case I would move it so it sits under the plant and blows up against the light. The lamp can take the heat but the plants should be cooled, not the other way around.

Nice build and good luck.

Both fans are blowing heat away from the plant, up towards the exhaust fan. I used another td-100 fan for intake and it's a lot cooler in the cabinet when I have the doors closed. It still rises up to 83-85 degrees but it's a 10 degree drop so it was worth it. I have a window AC laying around in my garage, I'm going to set it up in the room I have my cabinet in and crank that bitch down to the coolest settings. I wonder how much more that will add to my monthly electric cost

Well this is what I got so far, 17 days from seed. Watered last Friday with 1/4 strength nutes. Seems to look OK to me but if anyone has any comments on it please let me know.. I'm a beginner and well... I may be overseeing something you veterans can bring to my attention.

i have seen black tape (electrical) used on the inside of the door jambs and around the hinges to help with light leaks.

dont be afraid to go full strength next time around, if not at least step it up to half strength. plant looks very healthy! also, cant remember your genetics, but i heard a crazy idea once. something about the ethylene in a banana peel encourages female hormones?? haven't tried it myself.. from what i remember you basically lay a banana peel on the top soil and wrap in close around the base of the plant, not actually touching but within a couple inches of the base. ethylene gas emitted from the peel is supposed to help.

haha have fun with this new possibly crazy knowledge.
