Long time lurker, first time poster here. This is the start to a very low budget micro grow that ive been wanting to do for awhile now. I've got a couple closet grows under my belt and wanted to see what i could pull off in a small confined space.
To start out i acquired an old mini fridge with outside dimensions of 27"H x 19"W x 16"D
Began the process of gutting the interior of the fride to maximize usable inside space. Process took all of about 2 hours.
Next two images are of the mock-up for led light, pc exhaust fan and passive intake.
With the compressor out of the way it left me room to mount my power strip and run all my wires through a light trap
Not overly concerned with smell (now that its legal in my state) but still decided on a simple DIY carbon scrubber.
After a failed germination of a pretty old Trainwreck bagseed i was gifted an Amnesia Haze Fast Feminized seed of Seedmans genetics from a buddy of mine. seed cracked within 24 hours in paper towel germination method, but upon waking up next morning the paper towels had dried up so off into a pot of Happyfrog watered with Ph'd water it went.
Heres the whole setup as it sits right now. After a few weeks in veg will transplant into 5 gallon smart pot with Natures Living Soil concentrate filling bottom of pot and rest Happyfrog. Planning on trying a water only method thru entire grow with lots and lots of LST, as ive only got about 14 inches of vertical grow space above height of pot. also planning on Scrogging as well. Temps and humidity are pretty dialed in sitting at about 79 F and 65-70% humidity with no extraction fan running. with fan going full speed i can get temps down to about 73 and humidity levels down below 50%.
As of today, the bean has sprouted! had an issue with taproot arching up through the soil so buried it a little further and this morning i woke up to it finally breaking the surface.
fingers crossed for a successful grow through and through. any questions or comments feel free to ask. thanks for looking!!
