    Diy Grow box or Tent? Advise please

    Actually, gonna scrap the idea of the 12/12 and just hit it with the 4 DWC buckets, although will probably do a cheeky clone and see what happens. Cheers for the links! Gonna use velcro for the sealing, no need for hinges as the whole side comes off but nice idea about the lock, not sure ill...

    Yeah gonna put the netting on the wall side, don't want the plants to go too near the light, its well to hot and don't want em to get burnt. All i need to do is to figure out the door, i am sure i will be able to do this when i get round to putting up the netting. So, I still need to get me...

    Micro V scrog

    hey stone tech, nice stuff you go going on here! Just out of curiosity what is the height from the top of your pot to the ceiling? Just that I am hoping to go down the DWC route yet some are saying it will promote too much growth, I know i will have to train them etc, but just trying to get a...

    polyarcturus and no, that is the intake, the exhaust is still at the top, although i have made a design blunder. i thought that the 5 inch intake would be enough to match the 5 inch fan that i have (passive intake), apparently i need to increase the size by 3, so i am going to put another 2 5...

    Diy Grow box or Tent? Advise please

    Yep got the wire. But can decide what to attach the mesh to. If i attach it to the wall then i think it maybe hard to tend to the plants. I was thinking about somehow attaching the mesh to the pots so that i can take them out of the box and tend to them. polyarcturus, are you saying not to...

    here is the intake its a 125mm hole the same as the fan, so long as i get negative pressure ill be happy. The fan can really shift some air so i know there is plenty being refreshed. I really want to do a vertical grow in there. As the heat goes, it is hot in there at the moment so may...

    The velcro is going to be for the hardboard to the frame, although i can see the bonus of velcro on the plastic, i like the idea of re usability.

    hanging bulbs vertically.....

    I just got a sunmaster dual spectrum 400w, it says on the packaging that you can hang it in any direction. So my advise, go into your hydro shop or phone or get a sunmaster.

    Diy Grow box or Tent? Advise please

    Hey guys, I am in the process of finishing my box. I was going to go down the tent route, but all the hydro guys around my area simply said build your own if you can. It was a tough decision. I liked the way that I could take a tent down quickly, but it stood out more and I was not up...

    400w x 2 verticlal cooling, and radius

    Does anyone here know the light spread of a 400w hps when hung vertically? If it is recommended that a 400w is good for a 3x3 square in a standard setup, then wouldn't that mean when the build is hung vertically, it would cover a 3x3 wall? Make sense? Help? ha ha

    temperature controlled fans & Dwc

    Yeah was thinking about making some sort of cascade system for the rdwc to prevent stagnant water but that would start to complicate matters and add cost. I got my pots for dec today, so its make or break time by the weekend as to which route i am going to go. Noise is not an issue as I am...

    temperature controlled fans & Dwc

    Hey guys, I am trying to find out f anyone has had any success with fans that come with a temperature module built in? Such as the RUCK or Prima Klima? They do cost a bit, or does anyone have a good method for being able to just leave the ventilation so that the temps stay good? Also I am...
