    400W HPS Stealth Armoire...1St Grow

    Thanks, this was my first attempt at anything like this. I really enjoyed making it, I was on disability when I was initially inspired on growing out of a styrofoam container, but the more I read, the more I wanted to go as big as my budget will let me. The stealth passed, a week before I...

    I transplanted my clones on Wed the 23rd. Followed the hempy directions to the T, but could'nt find a solid answer of when to add nutes so I just used filtered water for the first three days. On Fri the 25th I feed the clones with 50% nutes of GH flora series using the Lucas formula, not sure...

    Did you catch the heat shiel in the pic above? I installed a heat shield for my hood to help with my temps. This is the best solution if you your having trouble with heat (besides a cool tube). I am now able to control my heat to within 1-3 degrees of room temp where my cab is at. I have no...

    This is still up for debate, but after reading some journals, I think I could benefit from a scrog grow, if not I will leave the screen there to help with even growth. The screen is 12" from growing medium and has 2"x2" squares. Please feel free to give input on this once I'm caught up. Thanks

    400W HPS Stealth Armoire...1St Grow

    Added a coat of primer, and about 2-3 coats of flat titanium white. Took about 3/4 of a gallon of paint. I used reflective waterproof tape form Home Depot to cover air gaps. Costs about $12, but trust me its worth it.

    Some security(More to come) I ended up having to bend the locking arm into an L to lock over the plastic. Sorry no pics. If someone really needs it let me know when I'm caught up to my current situation. EDIT: Sorry for the double posts, when I posted the first time, it would not update.

    Thanks dude. Nice cab. Don't mean to sound rushed, but I will finish my post first before I have a good conversation. I have an issue with my clones, but want to start from the beginning so that new growers have something to read from start to finish. That's what my intention is at least.

    Now, lets take care light proofing the union where doors meet. Cut to Length, reinstall the doors and test fit. Now just add a couple screws. Now seal the deal with some weather sealant. Now, some security measures, you might have to reinstall the doors a couple times...
