I've actually been researching for close to 2 year now before I get a decent grow cab and grow going. I had a pc I grew in and it was just thrown together without much thought but wasn't able to finish for certain reasons. But now I'm ready and willing to wait to finish this cab to get a quality setup with minimal imperfections.
This is a sign of a great grower. The time spent doing your homework is entirely equal to the quality of your operation.

I'm gonna be getting a Waterfarm with scrog. It's gonna be a couple weeks till I can buy the fan to finish it plus I want to take down the mylar and put up some white poly.

Nice, whats a waterfarm? The poly film melts easy, its just real heavy trash bag material. I'm using both. I went to home depot and got some heavy insulated diamond pattern mylar and stapled the shit out of it. handles more heat and reflects more as well. Get out your staple gun and have some fun! I'm using poly in my clone chamber and its OK for that I guess.

my grow cab was at about 85 F when i had the AC cooled 600 on my plants. The reflector was sitting about 2 inches from my poly for 4 days straight and i never saw any signs of burning/melting or smelt anything funny. You should be alright as long as your light isn't actually touching the film. good luck getting some dough for your fan. i know the feeling of needing that ONE thing to get the grow going and not being able to afford it. sucks

A waterfarm is a hydro unit that's like $65 and works great.

This guy used one and I decided to copy his grow.

How hot did your grow cab get for it to melt?

That thing looked great and what a setup to copy that guy kicked some ass! You know strain has a lot to do with your yield.

The poly was in a small veg cab that I have and a couple 27w cfls touched it and it melted pretty quick. The mylar is more forgiving and better reflection. The poly is a cooler type of reflection, the mylar is hotter in the cab. Poly is good for put up quick and take down even faster! I'm still using it I just moved the lights. The mylar I got at Homedepot was real cheap.. I think like $10.00 it was in a roll at the a/c duct work area.

Well I had a really cool idea of how to make it sealed off even when you open the doors to help keep smell in. But I was going to have to do it with poly.

I hear ya. Sounds like you got a plan, poly's cheap too and I think it came in 10' wide and $1.00 a ft. I got more than enough for $10.00 Real easy to hang.

You have been building this stealthy closet for more than 2 months now. When do you actually plan on growing anything?

Sub'ed for laughs...

I'm sure it didn't take him "2 years" to get the balls to do it... From your thread -> "I have lurked and studied for nearly 2 years and finally made the move."

Stop trolling the "trolls". It doesn't work that way.

Haha! My thoughts exactly, take your negativity else where.
I'm simply asking you a direct question. You have been on here for months discussing grows and have yet to actually start one. You seem to have everything in place but the seeds and the balls.

I'm anxiously awaiting your updates..... I"m putting my negativity right where you put yours, in some one else's thread.

You're just bitter your thread was closed because you can't stay level headed, period.
