I made myself work on the closet tonight, cutting strips of pine for the inner door frame, but I ran into problems. I hung the door incorrectly, and the hinges admit about 1/4" light on that side. I had taken a shortcut when I held the piece of wood up to the cabinet and realized it was...

Thanks Masta I like the idea of that fish emulsion being organic and thanks Brendon for pointing out that it's at Home Depot. Well, fortunately or maybe not so, I got a hold of some Kind and predictably, with it around, sorta let my plants be neglected. Having a 9-day vacation and a new copy...

Hey Masta thanks for checkin in. I have only used nutes once and that was with Lady Luck and she turned yellow. I only flushed her once though, apparently the soil was aerated enough. That was half the recommended amount of 10-15-10. I just now realized, I was supposed to buy molasses ages...

In the final pic, the plants are sitting on the light baffle assembly and I've installed the tracking for the shelf, not currently being used. Still have to cut the shelf. Basically, you insert shelf holders in the back, north-south, and along the sides, east-west, then you just put your shelf...

pics 1) The cabinet is only 4' high, it might seem taller here with the wide angle lens. Notice there is a hole in the upper side, for blowing out air and a hole in the bottom for passive intake. Right now it's against the floor but will be raised 3-5 inches when complete. In order to admit...

Forgot to mention that in the two plants other than Mr. Stretchy, I added Organic soil to their tops, about an inch of soil so this should help a little with nutes

pics 1) The biggest plant in lower left is the original Mr. Stretchy. Unlike the others, when I transplanted him he got 40% starter soil and 60% organic and I suspect the richness of the organic (Miracle Grow Organic) helped him take off like this as I'd been rotating them equally under the...

Thanks Brendon, obtuse, Hernandez, and GK. GK Thanks for the input... a reinforcement. brendon420, thanks for your input and thoughts.

You can see quite a disparity in size. They are, left to right: Mr. Stretchy, Stretchy2, and Lady Luck (I think). The main difference is this: Mr. Stretchy got transplanted into 60% Miracle Gro Organic soil and 40% starter soil. Lady Luck and Stretchy2 were put into more starter soil. I...

Also hinges for the doors, a handle, a lock if you want, screws for the shelving, white matte or flat paint for the interior, black flat paint for the light baffle, some fans, and that flexible silver tubing, taking care that it is adjusted to avoid letting light into "le chambre" (the chamber)...

Okay, this first pic is misleading! This is not viewed from the bottom, as it looks, but from the side. The bottom is the piece of which you can only see the skinny part. It's the piece that has the board propped up against it. If you remember the pic showing this board lying flat on the...

I should point out that I had to use certain basic power tools-- not for the largest 4x2 panels, but obviously for the base and top, and for other parts of this project. I had to go out and buy new tools. When I was a kid I started out with my grandfather's very old fashioned tools-- no power...

I figured I would build this just like I used to build speakers, when I was 12-- ghetto and everything. The easiest way to do this is to start with 4x2 pre-cut boards that you can get at Lowe's or Home Depot. I'm using 1/2" particle board as it tends to be more resistant to warping than...

Okay, Saturday I'm going to Lowe's or Home Depot or both to buy all the stuff for my grow closet. It will probably be 2x2x4= 2' deep, 2' wide, and 4' high. I'm only using flouros, so don't need a lot of fan power, but can't buy online. I know I need at least two fans, one for intake at the...

I finally started adding nutes, it's been about 3 weeks and my babies are growing really slow. They had a slow and humble start if you remember the beginning of this post. So I had the feeling that Lady Luck, for whatever reason, wanted nutes. I added 4 drops of Schultz' 10-15-10 plant food...

The 2nd pic is the babies in their natural home. Obviously I do not have any reflective material (just saved 3 chip bags, may add them tonight, for "mylar"). Not enough, obviously... I don't eat enough chips. I had to quarantine them at work (where I eat chips), in a non-descript white bag--...

I noticed in the pics the variance of light spectrum... but haven't commented because you're going straight to flower, right? So for flower "redder is better" but for veg, you want all cool, 6500K. My concern is that... going straight to flower, veg might be weak under warmer lights...

Hey guys i just though of somthing while looking at my avatar(was taken friday): Do you think my ladies are doing so well because of the high humidity??? Kinda seems logical, FL=Lots of humidity, plants under heat stress=dry leaves(i think), but with all the humitity maybe the plants dont really...

Count me in. I saw your link from MonkeeMan! Those plants are looking nice and fat.

A side note. When you go out to buy lights around here, you always see this NVision stuff that is packaged cheaply and you think they're cheap lights, and they are. When I went to Wal-Mart that's all I could see but I knew there had to be something else so I hunted and found General Electric...
