mine is 3' deep and i hurt my back sometimes. go 2' deep. 2 x 6 is a friendlier 12sq' than 3 x 4 imo. at least 5' high, and even that will not accommodate un-trained sativas. 7' tall would be better.

i believe intake should be passive, so as not to suck in dust and bugs............

id probly go a little bigger then mine just to accomadate heavy sativa if u so wish to grow them maby a couple bigger fans or if u go with a cool tube and hook a fan up to that u can keep it cool enough to were u could use the same kinda fans and cut a hole in the top so u could still have a lid for it
