K so I have never done a scrog or a cfl grow before. I have no extra room to try a scrog, so I decided to build a cab and scrog in that at a different location. So I read up in the cfl board, and scrog grows. I run 2-400w MH veg, and a 1000w HPS flower, but have zero cab and cfl experience.

The cab is separated in two sections, veg/flower 2.5'w x 1.5 d x 3' h.
clone 2.5'w x 1.5 d x 1' h. (wont use).

all painted plain ole' flat white.
6" occilating fan
2- 4" muffin fans uptop exhaust.
2- 4" muffin fans bottom intake.

Veg bulbs.
2-15w 6500k
6-20w 6500k
2-30w 6500k
I was shooting for 3000 lums. p/sf, but came up short at about 2720 (I know thats not exact but pretty close)

Flower bulbs.
4-55w spiral pro 2700k
2-42w 2700k
4-27w 2700k
The lumens per square ft. almost triples at flower time.

Using Happy Frog organic soil, Botanicare Pro Grow/Bloom, Liquid Karma, Silica Blast. GroTech MonsterBloom, SuperThrive.

The strain is a arjans haze cross with some other great Indica that my buddy has. Momma pic below.

I have the screen just have to cut the pipe to size, and the clones are about to root any day. The only questions I have is how is many should I use? Never been very space restricted and these babys are usually about 3 1/2 foot in my grows in no time during veg.

opinions please.....

Nice, I like the lighting setup. You have all angles covered once you get some plants in that thing.
What did you do for intake and exhaust, and what wattage lights did you use?

i would put one or two plants in there,let them grow about 12''tall then cover with the screen,lst as it grows,when 3/4 of screen is filled,switch to 12/12 light.the screen will fill out when the plants bud,you'll double your yeild growing with this method
