Oh hypothetically speaking; let's say I "wanted" to build a stealth box. The front half would be for a subwoofer. 12" sub to be exact and the rest would go towards the stealth box. Like I said, "hypothetically speaking". This could be fiction. The box would be 20"x20"x20". It would be 6" deep for the sub. Then a wall dividing the two parts. It wouldddd work really well except for temps. I would have 4 26w CFLs 6,500k. two 80mm intake fans that were removed from an Xbox 360 (RROD that was unfixable) and two 80mm exahust fans from two PCs. I would also have a 5" house fan. Now the box has the sun shield windshield shade cover thing. It's covering the inside of the box 100% which I was happy about. The box is 16x20x20 which gives it like 4sqft of grow space if I were to grow this in a legal part of the world. But for now it will be for my tomatoes as Winter is approaching and I live where it gets cold. It's got an intake port on the bottom of the Subwoofer side then its got an exhaust port on the top on the side of the subwoofer side. The wall dividing the two boxes has an intake on the bottom left corner for the two 80mm fans then the exhaust exists on the top right hand corner via two 80 mm fans. The 5" fan blows on the lights to keep them cool. Three bulbs are plugged into a powerstrip like in a PC grow box and one is loose hanging so it's moveable for better lighting around the box. I have currently planned to germinate 6 seeds. I found an extra two that had germinated in a pot magically. One sprouted and that's how i discovered them. The one that sprouted is doing good, it was stunned the past two days after I would have replanted it in Fox Farm soil after it was in regular top soil. I plan to grow them all with more lights until I can determine sex. But this is all just a crazy fantasy. My question is this, why is it that with one 26w bulb on my temps are 87 and my room temp is 76. with three on, the temp goes to 94. with two on it goes to 90-91. I have a wireless thermometer so it's easy to keep track of temps. I have read quite a bit and I can't seem to find a good blue print of sqft and the amount of fans/lights. I tried the pc grow box with 1 bulb. it was in the 90s all three bulbs it went to 105. I killed two "tomato" plants that a lovely feller gave me.
