Thanks man, I know for sure I'll have the cab complete in a week. But it may be a while till i get my grow equipment, I have bills to pay and necessities to buy first.

Finally someone who understands, thank you. Pacman you have great advice, I just recently learned of LST and read up on the techniques and I was actually considering it but am just a bit hesitant. I am definatly interested in your grow!

You bet. People get so caught up in one way of thinking and one way of doing things. the beauty and fun in all this is how limitless the possibilities are, despite the secretive nature of it! Thinking out of the box, get it?! I LST'd my last gorw and I will continue to do so from here on out. With anything less than 600 or 1000 HPS, you just can't get the vertical penetration necessary to grow, especially sativas, without some trainingof the plant to utilize the strongest lumen output areas, i.e. 6 to 12 inches from the bulb for most lights. Good luck!

nice... i've actually been watching your cab :) ... it's fun isn't it ?:)

Hell yeah, this is my first time messing around with wood and I think I'll make it a new hobby to add along with growing. It's just going to be a while till it's complete with grow equipment, money is real tight now.

I feel ya. I think building these are super fun and putting together your own "Eco system" is a sweet concept. My neighbor is an engineer and a master carpenter. Hes building my box as we speak. Tomorrow ill be ordering my 150w HPS and maybe some other stuff. Sorry for the thread jack.

Im jealous of your box though, its the size id liek to have. Mine is just a tad smaller

That's cool, I wish I can have my dad help me because he's a master at everything so when he builds things they come out f-ing sweet, but he doesn't even know I smoke. Don't forget to post pics of your cab.

If you want stealth, you can grow with cfl's, they hardly produce heat.

Damn dude, thats alot. I got the same problem, im broke and im relying on an old friend to pay me back $120 but hes a flake. I still need to buy my carbon filter, insulated ducting, finish my stealth box for the vortex, and a speed controller for the fan.

The cab is still being made, as far as I know. This is all going in my closet so it needs to be 110% stealth before i turn it all on. No vibrations and no sounds. Im even buying a digital ballast for my 150w HPS because the magnetic one buzz's like a tattoo machine. For the digital ballasts, check out www.hidhut.com im pretty pumped about it
