unfortunatly not dude im totally fucked with ventilation i have no windows just double doors to the garden cant leave em open or ill get robbed its a wierd room i might just take pic of it one day lol if this doesnt work out im trying led next lol also have limit plug sockets in here trying not to overload shit >.<
EDIT : yeah i have two fans mate not extraction tho.
hahaha aye probs not best to leave the doors open then lol. no chance you could put a hole through the ceiling? or use an airbrick maybe?
hahah i know dude but the thermo was sat in my room before i put it in the cab didnt want people to look at those reading and get confused.
its currently 72.6f in there. without the fans
22c is spot on really

Afraid building modifications are out the question , i have the option of a dark poor ventilated room , or a conservatory which is air'd better but is hotter :/

temps are now settled around 77f with both fans on , just realised i should really use celsius huh :P

Just going about making the cab light proof think im gonna have to rob my house mates bike and get down the hardware place.

hmmm rock and a hard place really man. unless you get an air con unit but they'll be pricey and you'll still have to vent the thing. i'm in the same boat at the moment. as a last resort you could drill some holes in the cupboard roof that'll ease the heat but the smell will escape.

hahaha nice i have a small corner off holes in the roof already its not enough tho i stopped drilling when i suddenly thought about light leak etc how u getting round that ?

i found my garden wire got the light horizontal now but i just dont trust that crappy wire to hold :/

no ventilation?
How do you manage the smell (inside the house and neighbors)?
roflpmsl , currently 3 of us live here , 1 dude grows the other smokes daily the house always smells of green landlord is cool with us smoking. so its hidden by that lol its a little to carefree when it comes to this house and weed lol.

Just got the cutting in and have stuck it under the light. (this could easily be a dud cutting but lets see how it goes)

Hopefully will see some change in the morning but no worrys if not as the seeds should be at my door when i wake up (bubble)

Still looking at lights this is where i got my cfl http://www.basementlighting.com/envirolites_and_ecolites.htm

But im very tempted by the envirolite's that are on the same page, as they give details of lumens unlike my giant cfl , although i have emailed them asking for lumen ratings for the giant cfl's. The giaant cfl is a bit more giant than i was expecting aswell so im not sure if my original plan for lights will fit nicely i think it might be too much of a squeeze im debating a reflector with bulbs hung vertically around the plant.

ideas needed lol

yeah i did mate haha , im going to have a look for some of these 42w's.

I remeber my reason for going for large wattage now and that was more bulbs means more leads and tbh the leads aint cheap.
