I already posted about a week ago but, here is an update on how my grow box is looking... Any feedback would be appreciated.

This is after day #1

Day #2

After we got the fuckin thing built at my friends house, we took it over to my house to put it in the basement... It wouldn't fit through my door... :-|
So I was an hour late to work tonight because I had to take the thing apart, construction glue and all.

This is during the rebuild...

And here's the almost finished product. I will add some more pictures to this thread when we paint, jigsaw the vent holes, and get the lights in. Hopefully in the next couple weeks.

that would be a great area for ScrOG,, that is what i am doing for my next grow... what are the dimensions?
 
Its 5ft. tall, 4ft. wide, and 3 feet deep. It might be a little deeper than that. But I'm thinking it should be a perfect space for what I want to produce.
 
Update: Caulking done. Completely air tight. Five feminized Snow White seeds on the way from Nirvana.

Well since me and my friends are broke. We're going to try basic flouro tubes. We were thinking 3 2ft. tubes and fixtures. Maybe a bigger one across the floor. I would really appreciate any advice you guys have on the best way to get good light to my plants without spending lots on a hps light.
 
im ganna build that same box lol ganna subscribe to this,CFL's the best way to go other then hps,u can get them at home-depot 2700k is better for flowering and 5000k+for vegging so u prob wan't a mixture.just get as many as u can,ill try to help u as much as possible although i am no expert lol

Thanks for the advice. The lighting is probably my main focus right now. You think I will need more than 3 2ft flouro bulbs? And when you say 2700 for flower and 5000 for veg, you're talking about lumens right?
 
Lookin' good classclown, keep us posted on other updates. Very excited to see some plants in this finely constructed cab.

Lookin' good man. So do you plan on growing all 5 seeds in this op? Do you plan on adding levels or sections for vegging and flowering or just having that whole area dedicated to growing your 5?

he means the temperature of the light spectrum. 2700K(Kelvin) is good for flowering, and 5000K is good for vegging. You can also do 2700k throughout the entire process.

Thanks a lot. We still have to cut our 1x2's that we have. We are going to make shelves. The babies up high towards the light, we will just move them down accordingly. I am hoping to get a hold of my friends jigsaw so I can make to two holes for the ventilation system we thought up.

A couple of bagseeds we have popped so we might just try to throw those under some light for fun until the nirvana seeds arrive. Do you guys think that 80% Miracle grow moisture control and 15% miracle grow perlite is an ok mix? That's what I've seen in most guides.

Oh i see. How many tube flouro's would it take to reach those numbers?

classclown, he is talking about the color of the bulb. The lower end of the Kelvin scale (2700K) is for flowering and the higher end of the scale (6500K) is for veg. I think you are thinking of lumens and I think around 6,000 lumens per square foot would be a good range to shoot for. Hope I helped

Thanks for the advice, down the road we will get more lights. But for now here is the one bulb we have over the bagseed. This is just a little experiment to do until the rest of the box is complete and the REAL deal nirvana seeds arrive.
