26.6cf ganga dispenser, stealth grow room, hydroponic, overdrive fluorescent

Noob, virgin and rookie would all describe me. I believe Ingenuity and resourcefulness bring me above norm.

How do you like this... first time "smoker" decides to build a grow box to avoid all the bull shit of buying good weed out there from unknown producers.
Me and my wife want to experience the full tilt without the need to deal with the lesser quality of "product" out there.

I had a refrigerator in the garage that I kept a few beers in, but had temp problems. So I decided to build it into a “small” grow chamber, The ice maker dispenser gave it the name, this after a joke of placing buds in the ice chamber and placing a glass in the ice deliver on the door to give it out. But the final product will unfortunately lack the ability to dispense buds via a front door dispenser. But the name stuck…..
Thus the build of the 26.6cf ganga machine/dispenser is born…..
First pictures of the gutting of the box start this tread…

Gut the equipment...
note a refigerator cotains lots of valuable electrical eqipment as can be seen by the amazing amount of recyled equipment used....

1-First remove coprecor and coils fron under and in the freeser side.
2-look at this nice vent from side to side
3-exterior ice/ganga dispensor that had to go
4-locate intorior hydroponic tray

speller not i.... said yoda....

1 star install supprt for water chamber.. recycle minblind hangers.... spring load helps disribute whight
2 free wood from depo helps make glass shelf safe to hold water
3 glue shelf to glass. how to love construction adhisive.....
4 use recylcled rear freeser panel to cover door

i have seen a picture of some nice plants growin in a stand up fridge

from last post ... water pipe will be used for have inside water dispensor for plants.....
1-filter chamber- their is a huge are under that i will build later a carbon filter for air exost
2-over drive florecent tubes. wow I like more light... just add dual balast for each light bulb. fuck all the extra connectors, I know how to use a sodering iron and used that to attach all the wires.
3-ge knows how to build refrigeraters, the steel that they used was heavy, me pissed at useing tools to cut heavy gauge metal. but I got a good hole in back to mount fan for cooling. the fan was FREE from the the compressor secion under. see mounting later on. note see cetral devider.
4-lots of stuff removed from freezer.. you can see the back side of the dispensor removed later, and of extra wires later removed. there was the coolest colied tube thing in there with defrost heaters and lots of other stuff, gut is all, keep the parts..

looks good 1 eye.......

continuing nonsence....
1-the right side befor any mods, I kept the air vent thing at the bottome and two shelfs units to hold the girls.
2-closre look at the shelfs, note the loer is about 2" deep-good for drip hydroponics. and the upper has several trays that I may try to use a sproting system... the temp tamp other stuf got gutted

the upload system for photos sucks.... I will try to discribe phots in random order... I am such a smuckkk

3- Look there is a shelf in the right door for me to work on, me is sooo happy, I can soder connections and have a good place to place my beer at the same time.

4-I taped up the recycled steel that I cut and then grinded the trim to look nice. ouch I also grinded the finger.... blood and big gash insuded. no picture of that suckers.....

look how the dispensor disaper..
1-little paint and tape and gone big door hole
2-on left look nothing but white area, on right black door to get ganga/milk or maby just happy shelf.
3-big empty space to grow in, its big but soo small.
4-left flower chamber with test florencent insalled and on. see the tube, that is from the lower door water dispensor, i had an old sprayer that I plan on plubming in their. tis will feed from the hyroponic tank for manual watering.

ps. that light is 1.5 driven from a dual ballast. it tuned the insulation brown, need more thinking
think
think
think...
sleep. puft.

fucking picks out of order....
1-vent with fan I will install. this cam from the bottom where the compressor was. (cooler for compressor?) I like it because i blows lots of air and it is silent.... the pic shows the back hole where i cunt through, pain the ass, the inside partition is seen and with surgical persision with a sawzall I got a nice hole. btw that fax was nasty.. 10min to clean it up min.
2-Look how nice that fan looks now. the 4 ballasts on the lest are for the veg the 4x and dual on the right are not hooked up yet but will serv the flower chamber. also if you look center left yo will see the fucking hole that I drilled, dam ge and there thick steel. my ears are still ringing
3-the first test run of the veg chamber with ODNO florescent and everthing in place. two bulbs in rear, two in the door, timer in door, lower tank are ready for my attention and shelfs in the areas that i think will work
4-if I ever get to the end of the project, I do hope I get some pleasure out of it, but maby not?

I will use vinal pan lineer for the tank/nutrient drain area (lowest part) I was going to use bubbles to pump but have chosen to use a normal submersible pump for this side, this so I could have a veg and nursery are in the same side.

Its been a long day, and this project has consumed two weekends so far. I hope that I can get water to flow tomarrow. on the veg side.

Comments are encouraged and welcome. (I already know that that I spell and talk like yoda on a bad day, not helpfull)

Remember that I am a NOOB, I look forward to comments and the inevitable "are you fucking crazy" comment.
thanks to all.
