I turned off the (4) 5000k lights and left on the (4) 2700k lights for now. That's brought the temps down to 82F, a little on the high side, but much more acceptable. Humidity is at about 25% right now.

I just saw temps shoot up to 94F in there, so I've enabled the intake fan again. I think the issue is my exhaust fan, honestly. It's a 120mm only pulling 74CFM without the light shroud. The intake is only a 40CFM 120mm fan.. These are just fans I had around, so I figured why not use them to...

I've disabled the intake fan for the moment, and we'll see what happens. There is also another 120mm fan inside the case just blowing around the ambient air / bulbs.. Should that be disabled as well? Meanwhile, what do I win? Another smoke break! bongsmilie

Slight issue, after everything has been painted it seems my temps have gone up, and my humidity down. =( Right now, I'm seeing about 90F, and 16% humidity. I guess I'm going to be investing in new fans and a humidifier sooner than I thought.

Soil: Fox Farm Ocean Forest Yes, there is a 120mm Exhaust Fan, and a 120mm Intake fan. Both fans will be changed out later for higher CFM and lower dB. Seeds: Bagseed, from a batch a friend and I enjoyed. Strain unknown.

The dresser has started up today. I've started a grow journal here: https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/402728-stealth-dresser-grow-1st-grow.html Thanks for the help and suggestions everyone!

I put about a 1/2" to 1" of water in the cups to start.. Can someone let me know if I should be putting more/less?

Installed the intake fan, and made another anti-light box. Painted the bottom, and the aluminum tape everywhere to prevent hotspots. And we're off! At exactly 3PM today, I have started the timer and the seeds are now in soil! Jan 19th - Seeds started germinating Jan 23rd - Seeds in soil

Niice man, I just started mine, seeds going in the soil tomorrow. Subbed. Best of luck!

I was thinking I'm gonna go ahead and install an intake fan as well, but not tonight since it's late.. I'll have an intake fan first thing in the morning though. =) That, should help with the temps. Realstyles: Thanks, it's gonna be a fun ride.

Got the bottom installed, and some more lightproofing done. Now I have to paint the bottom, and let it air out. But first, more importantly... Smoke break! bongsmilie

Hello everyone, I'm nearly completed with my dresser build (should be finished tonight), and I have already started germinating my seeds on January 19th. As of today, they have all sprouted their taproots, and I am going to put them in the soil and turn the lights on for the first time...

Looks sick man, I almost considering going the PC route too.. and then I decided on the dresser build instead. I bet the PC was a lot less work. =\

I dunno, I think this current door will work, I just have to find a way to seal it up. I think I'm going to try magnet cabinet latches.. Maybe two on each side and see if that will do it combined with weatherstripping all around. Also, I'm just wondering if any of you have advice in regards to...

Okay, I need to find the vets out there.. I'm starting to get a little concerned about keeping the back door closed. It all lines up, and if pressed shut the light seals out very nice with no weatherstripping installed yet. The issue is that the door is thin hardboard tries to bend open (the...

Just for fun, I went ahead and snapped a shot with the lights in. Remember: This is at maximum height, they will go all the way to the floor. :-P

I was considering a padlock as well, but the back board is kinda thin and wants to bend so I think there would still be a lot of room for it to leak. I'm thinking maybe velcro the whole left side, with weather stripping on the inside, and a padlock? Comments? Note: This dresser will be pushed...

Well, I feel like I got a bit accomplished today.. but I'm starting to have some concerns. I wanted this dresser to open from the back so that it wasn't so easy to just walk up and open it, and because the weight of the drawers would tip it forward if you weren't careful. I'm pretty sure I can...

Wow, that's quite a bit more lumens! I think right now I calculate I'm at 13,400 lumens. The dimensions of the grow chamber are: 29 1/2" W x 39 1/2" H x 15 1/2" D Sq.Ft: 8.09 I don't really know offhand what the lumens requirement is per square foot, but I imagine I might be on the low side...

Just wondering, what's the advantage of the 125w red vert? I went with 2700k and 5000k at the same time because I read that a mix of spectrum was a good idea during veg.. I'll likely take out the 5000k's during flowering. I'm actually heading to the store today to look at some 120mm PC fans.. I...
