Hello everyone,
This is my first post and first indoor grow and first hydro. Lotta firsts so i will need everyone's wisdom.
So i have been lurking for a while, and getting supplies and stuff. I am finally at a place where i am almost done.
I have 6 seedlings under some flouros, just bagseed since this is my first time at lots of new things. I have just finished a homemade grow tent using a rubbermaid wardrobe closet. seen below.
Bought 10x25 feet of the panda film stuff, basically kept it doubled up and wrapped the frame with it.
I did a test run last night grow tent go up to 120F no ventilation. 250w hps with remote ballast. so obviously need vent.
My question is hows the best way to go about doing this.
I live alone in a townhouse and i am on the end unit, so i only got people on one side. the room in the picture is a spare bedroom. currently its my office/laundry room. haha. Anyways the thing on the wall is a futon mattress. I want to put it in that corner , its opposite the shared wall.
I have some time to do this seedling are only like 1.5 inches. I still need to get zippers and stuff. But i want to at least get then vent issue fixed first.
FYI the tent/closet is 3x1.5ishx5ft. was like 24 bucks at walmart. 25 for the panda film, and 4 bucks for the aluminum tape. cost = 54 bucks.
I was thinking of modifying the stock HTG reflector, I put the sides on and i think i could rig it to be a air cooled hood.
4inch hole on the side, add a starter flange then hosing and a fan. for the glass i was thinking i could bend about 3/8ths of the sides of the reflector that way i could put glass under neath and use little c-clamps to hold the glass to the reflector.
Any suggestions welcomed, the cheaper and DIY the better, clearly. I love build sh*t with my hands. Great sense of accomplishment, especially when
... hehe.. post ran long sorry. Pic are from phone, will get my digi back from my g/f soon.
