I decided to scrape the hps plan and ended up getting a htg supply 7 Band 135w UFO LED light. I plan on adding at least 2x 2700k cfls as well for flowering. I might eventually knock out the divider and make it a straight veg only cabinet with a 400 watt hps and better cooling. But for now I...

I have been torn on using cfl's or hps and I think heat was going to be an issue so I decided to scrape the hps plan and ended up getting a htg supply 7 Band 135w UFO LED light. I plan on adding at least 2x 2700k cfls as well for flowering.

I understand no one knows for sure but I was hoping someone with a similar sized cab had tried it and good give me some feedback. I would hate to buy it and it not work wasting money.

2 coats was enough for the elbows so I glued them to a straight section and glued them to the cabinet. After the glue dries I am going to do a bead of silicon around the elbows to make sure they are sealed and light proof.

I was planning on using cfls but with the price of bulbs I have been debating a 150watt hps. Let me know what you think. My cabinet is: 29 3/4" wide (broken into 2 sections with a divider 14 1/2" wide each) 25 3/4" Tall 11 1/2" deep With no lights running 70 degrees in the box Original...

Thanks for the pic and info. xgiovanni03x - I am debating how many I am going to do. I have 4 seeds and think I could do 4 in my box but not 100%. Look at my sig for my grow log and that shows my setup.

Do you have a picture of what a preflower looks like? Should I do any extended darkness period?

After doing some searching and more reading on autoflower seeds I have one question. When do you swap bulbs as the plant will automatically go into flowering? I was planning on 20/4 schedule with 4x 26 watt 6500k 1x 23 watt 2700k for veg and 5x 23 watt 2700k for flowering. I was also going...

Okay thanks for the help. Will probably just do 1/3 dosage of Tiger Bloom while in veg.

Just an update on my grow cabinet. I added a 3rd coat of Kilz as 2 was just not enough with the cabinet being black. I also put silicone on the inside seems for an air proof seal. I did the outside seems with liquid nails when I added the backing. I also did 2 coats of Krylon Satin black to my...

I am getting ready to start my first grow this weekend and looking at nutrients. I was going to use Fox Farms Tiger Bloom but have been debating Jungle Juice. I am debating using just using Jungle Juice micro and bloom. I am using autoflower easyryder seeds with Fox Farms Ocean Forest soil so...

Mods could you please move this to the cfl growing section? I posted it in the wrong section and can not pm yet as I have too low of posts.

My seeds came in this weekend! I will germinate them late this week as I am still ironing out my box right now. Today I added a backing to my cabinet, picked up some pvc pieces for passive intake, and silicon to seal the box from air leaks. I installed the backing and put down 2 coats of...

I am using a cabinet that is a fish tank stand it is black and pretty solid it does not have a compete backing so buying some wood. Going to cover the back, seal the seems, paint the inside white with kilz. The dimensions of the cabinet are: 29 3/4" wide (broken into 2 sections 14 1/2"...
