Still in the works a little but I'm close.
The new 4x8x8 addition to my old 4x8x8 room has me at 8x8x8 now. I got two horizontal -1,000w digilux bulbs shining over five blueberry haze in five gal buckets. I plan on flowering these through a 4x8 screen ,
and the other side has four vertical -600w lights in tubes with the reflectors still on. They are shining on four large Durban Poisons. Three are in 15gal black plastic containers and one is in a 20gal brute trash can.
All the lights are cooled by two 6” 435cfm fans and the room is cooled by one 18,000 btu "Friedrich" ac unit... Picked it up brand new for $195.00!!!

Just gotta get a bigger master controller and then a day or so of touchup work and it'll be in full swing with the co2 and odor control

Very nice. I like yo shit a ton.

Don't know if you saw it but I'm putting together a new op away from the house and the kids. Check it out when you get a chance. I'm gonna hit the sack since the wifey's finally home. I want to do co2 but don't have the funds atm. I do have an AC unit though so I'm ready for it when I do.

Are you using the OSB with the foil type backing on there or is that reg OSB that you put Mylar on? I've always wondered if the stuff with the foil type backing would cause hot spots or not an didn't have the cajones to try it.

K2 Kush (7).jpgLove your set up.... Came out similar to mine I just put up. I got a 4x4x8 set up with 1 XXXL magnum (that is not up/its for Flowering) and the Co2 gen over the T8s i have in there in the pic.

With your A/C unit do you have your exhaust to threw your lights Outside>duct>light>duct>OUTSIDE or INSIDE THE ROOM? Your the perfect guy to talk to because we have similar rooms you just have 4 feet on me.

Thanks Bank :-)
The air is pulled through the lights from the outside of the room and then dumped out of the other side of the room... all sealed to keep the co2 in the room....
soo yeah it goes

outside fresh air>duct>lights>duct>fan>duct>hot waste

Thanks dez
The shell is osb and the inside is lined with 1" insulation board... its a foam with both sides covered in a reflective film, easy to cut with a utility knife.

I thought so, only the stuff I've found at Home Depot isn't nearly that shiny looking. I use the Insulfoam which is the white styrofoam panels with the Styrene film on both sides and cover them with Mylar on my walls. Cool cab man, you do very professional work.

I see a lot of clamps hanging in the background of one pic, are you a cabinet maker? I'm a finish carpenter with a B-1 General Contractor Lic and custom cabinetry is my specialty. I've done many kitchens around Orange and LA counties and too many vanity cabs to count.

Been out of town but today I got the 8 spot light controller hooked up on 220 and put the screen up. Giving them 24hrs of darkness tonight in prep for flower... They have been feeding on mostly the soil this whole time with a couple doses of veg tea, so in a day or two they will get their first taste of some flowering guano kelp tea. I do feel like I should have given them a batch of the bloom tea like a week before flip just to get the juices goin but it's too late now. I have no solid reason why I think this but its just my gutt sayin it. Still some lollipoping and touch up work to be done before I can just do routine maintenance stuff:mrgreen:

Thanks for tuning in!

:peace:

whodat- i think youll be just fine with starting them on the flower tea once they flip. some growers like to start their bloom nutes late in veg just before the flip and some growers continue veg only nutes until they stop stretching, like integra was doing. either way the results seem to turn out about the same and im sure your going to be pulling some killer buds! still running the sour diesel and the crystally strain?

Hey Whodat, looks good with those plants in there.
How many plants are there in the last pic you posted? I'm getting ready to do my first scrog at the new spot under a 1K HPS and am trying to do some figuring on how much space to allow for each plant in a scrog. I will be putting between 5 & 9 plants under it and it's on a light rail so I have up to a 4'x8' area to work with. Four of the plants are pretty good size and the others are average. I'm going to give each of them their own screen since they're mixed strains and will have different flowering periods. Just going to butt the frames of the screens together.

I'm basically trying to decide how big to make each screen. First thought was 2x2 but when I put one together it seems awfully big. Any suggestions on screen size for each plant? I may only use two of the bigger ones and will most likely Supercrop those when I put them under the screens to spread the tops out a bit.
