Not yet, should be very soon tho I've still got crap loads of stuff to get tho, so won't be starting for a while.
Your cabs are really impressive mate, hope you don't mind me stalking your progress on here.
As the light doesnt give off much heat, are you worried about low temps?

Yes mate its a concern. Im hopefully gonna do a test run tonight or tomorrow and see what happens.

I have just ordered my seeds Thought id take advantage of the special offer at attitude. I got 10 x big buddah blue cheese and my freebies which include Kushage which i may try with 3 cheese.

Had a bit of a nightmare today, over slept lol and didnt get up until 11!! Went to get started and i had lost my staples so i got the bus down town and got some more. Came home and found they werent the right ones and didnt fit my stapler lmao. Borrowed one off my sis and i have managed to get the main flower cab all done. Its more tricky than i thought. I have found the big pieces are easy but everytime i checked there were very small spaces i hadnt got covered. Took my time and its bang on now. Only light leaks are from the bottom cabs which ill do tomorrow and ill do my veg cab also.

Have been thinking about where to dry my weed. I may do as you suggest and make a dryer. Not sure if i fancy these quick dryers i think i would rather dry it properly ie hang it or use some meshing to rest it on. How big would the dryer have to be mate? I havent a clue lol.

Ill get stuck in though tomorrow and hopefully get it all sorted. Monday i can give the cabs a good clean and i think we will be able to finally do a test run It will be nice to get rid of all the shite in the room aswell as it is still similar to a building site!!

 

[BudBaby]

If i never see another fucking stapler again it will be to soon lol!! My sisters has packed up on me now so ill have to make a trek to wickes tomorrow and get the staples for mine. I just pressumed all staples would fit all staplers but i pressumed wrong lol.

Ive got the main veg cab all nice and light proof now and half the bottom cab. Ill def get the rest finished tomorrow and then Tuesday ive just got to clean the cabs and tape up the weatherstrip and seal airline holes.

I sort of blagged the misses and said i would only grow for 2 years but i have just been down and told her im never getting rid of these cabs. no way in hell not after all the work ive put into them.

 

[BudBaby]

Thats the weatherstripping out of the way thank fook I have stood inside the cab with the doors shut and its total darkness in there although from the outside there are a couple tiny light leaks, im struggling to fnd out where they are coming from. You cant see them at all unless i get on the floor and look from underneath if you get me. Its pissng me right off but ill just ifnish my lunch and have a look.

Im gonna try and get down b and q tomorrow and get a propogater and i also need something to tidy the wires up.

 

[BudBaby]

Thats it for today ove had another 5 hours on it and im starting to lose my rag with it so ill finish off tomorrow. Ive sorted all but 2-3 very very small light leaks which ill have another crack at tomorrow. I dont think im gonna bother taping over the weatherstrip as i think from time to time im gonna have to slightly adjust it as being foam it seems to be light tight one time and just off the other.

Ive done the cables for the pumps and with all the doors shut im fairly happy with the noise level, if its silent upstairs and you linger outside the spare room door you can very slightly here a noise but nobody is gonna be doing that.

Tomorrow ill give the cabs a good clean and do any last touching up then b and q thursday. Im just really happy its all done now i just want to get started.

Congrats BB, a lot of hard work but should be well worth it. My light has been dispatched gutted I have to wait for payday to get some seeds tho

 

[BudBaby]

Everytime i do something i get carried away lol. Started off in December trying to convince the breadknife to let me grow. 3 month later the best part of 5k gone lol but i cant wait to start. Ive never done anything like this before and im usually rubbish at diy so i think me and my sister have done well getting all this assembled.

LOL i thought you may have been on a mad one lmao. Basically all i need to do now is silicone airholes and wire holes, tidy cables up and clean them. Its been a bit warmer the past couple of days so im hoping the really cold spell is over then i may get away the rest of the year without having to heat the cabs.

Ive taken the nutes out of the top cabs as they were knocking the magnetic latches out and they seem to make the pump noise worse when there in there so ive got those tucked away at the back of our walk in wardrobe.

Ha ha yeah man! My mate sorted me out some Arjun Haze, Just when I am coming down I take another hit and I'am good for a few hours I cleaned out my old bong with Sea Salt and 90% Alc.. It's well clean now I watched a You-Tube Video on how to do it and now it sparkles I'll most likely reply to your other posts in the morning.. (I have a king L on the go and can't concentrate ) n my Mrs is watching a 'fat' show on TV and she keeps beconing me in lol ah man.....well at least I'am sadated - STELTHY

 

[BudBaby]

I have got a cheapo bong but its shite, i may invest in a decent one but a bong usually gets me too wrecked and i eat a ton of food lol.

Seeds have just arrived , apart from the 10 x BBBC i got, 2 x th seeds heavy duty fruity reg, 2 x th seeds darkstar reg, 1 x th seeds sage fem, 1 x th seeds burmese kush fem, 1 x th seeds kushage fem, 1 x g13 labs hypnotic fem, 1 x dinafem white widow and 1 x dinafem diesal and also a free packet of skins lol.

I def fancy doing a kush strain so i think i may do the kushage and i also hear good things about dinafem white widow so i may try that aswell. I was thinking if i do 4 seeds of BBBC and the white widow and kushage i should get 4 germinated fem plants form that, im thinking it will be good to do the extra 2 incase of problems.

 

[Griffta]

Hi BB, can I ask how many plants are you hoping to get under each of your flowering lights?
Reading the above it sounds like 4 under each, that's what I want to do (4 girls under my 1 light) but thought I might be being optimistic

 

[BudBaby]

Ill be doing 2 under each 140 watt light mate so 4 plants total under 280 watts

 

[BudBaby]

Right mate im pretty much done. Weatherstripping is doing my head in. Everytime i check and look real close there are tiny spaces i can see, i suppose its because its soft and moves slightly each time. There are no visable light leaks though so i think im good to go.

Veg cab is more or less done. I have only 2 electrical cables in there ie pump and light so im not even sure if i need to tidy those cables up as the plants in veg wont come anywhere near to them. The flower cab i just need to get the 2 fan cord together and maybe stick to the wall somehow. Same with the light and pump cables.

Will the extension lead and fan speed controller be ok resting on the edges of the cab?

 

[BudBaby]

I know your probably busy or on a session lmao so ive cracked on mate, hope you dont mind.

I bought some lastic p clips they were called to tidy the wires up. Its probably not as neat as i could have done it with a design off you but to be fair i just wanted it done. I still need to sort the cable for the light out for the flower cab but i think finally im done.

What shall i do next mate? Ive got seeds and heated propogater so i think im about ready to start

Here is a few pics, i dont know how to get them in order but the veg cab is the one with the extension lead on the right hand side with only a couple of wires in there. Flower cab have a few wires in but ive made them as tidy as i can.

 

[BudBaby]

In the veg cab we got a load of the spray adhesive on the one wall, do you think it will be a problem? Im gonna try and get rid of it tomorrow but i have a feeling its not gonna be easy. Its horrible stuff.

 

[BudBaby]

You were right about taking the handles off mate, there alot more room without them

I think ill add a few more of those clips tomorrow and get the wires a bit neater then i can tape over then.

grow room temps

If you cant get proper ventalation try checking out the heat subtractor. It has a built in radiator 6 inch or 8 inch, inlet line and outlet line for cold water to come in and hot water to come out. Seal the grow room door with the reinforced milar, 2 zippers to make a nice big door for access. Make an inlet hole down low and an exaust hole up high have the outlet to the heat subtractor blowing in the hole down low and the intake for the heat subtractor pulling from the hole up high removing any un wanted heat from your grow room (box, closet). Youl also need some kind off a 5 gall jug or bigger for water to feed your heat extractor. Grow on every one. Carlos AKA MODOG187

Hi dude.. I've been really busy with the family past week or so, and also attempting to fix my PC so I can upload pics etc. The cabs are looking good but I feel it would look just that bit better if you were to A) Drill a hole in-line with the blue air-line at the base of the trunking, you can then feed the air-lines through, and hide them beneath the grow shelf (under 1st shelf/s).

Also its a bit hazardous to have your ext. lead in the grow room.. I am despratley trying to upload the diagram so that you can arrange/organise your cables both safely and tiderly, the overall look of the cabs will look so much better, when you decide to showcase you 1st batch of 'Bud-Baby' ladies. Also because the plants will require you to mist them during Veg stage its dodgey to have any power in this area, I think the best place for the ext. leads would be in the top section at the back of the top cabs, This will require a few holes being drilled and some re-wiring of plugs (to feed the cable through the holes) Then I'd post the mains leads (x2) out and down the back of the cab's so then you'll only have 2 super stealth mains plugs to connect up and the growroom will be clutter free and safe at the same time..The pic I 'WILL EVENTUALLY' upload will show this more clearly

Apart from that dude, we can crack on and get started. Have you got all your nuits etc yet?

well lets get the last mods done and we'll get those seeds in and start the grow - STELTHY
