Hey guys this is my first grow box setup for my single RDWC system. Nothing fancy, but does the job.
This is all that I bought to make this happen:
Whats inside the box:
1 - Wardrobe box $20(local storage store)
Electrical/Lights:
1 - 400w MH/HMP Ipower light $116(ebay)
1 - 24-Hour Dual Outlet Manual Ground Grow Light Timer $12 (ebay)
1 - Digital Thermometer Hygrometer Clock Calendar LCD Display Outdoor/Indoor White $10 (ebay)
Atmosphere:
1 - EZ CO2 fungal carbon dioxide bag $32 ebay)
1 - Crane Cool Mist humidifer $15 (Craigslist)
Ventilation:
2 - ALUMINUM DUCTING 4" 8' $17 (Wal-Mart)
1 - ActiveAir Duct screen $4 (local grow store)
2 - 6" desktop fans for inside air cirulation $12(ebay)
2 - 4" FFB0912EHE Delta Electronics 92x32mm Fans for exhaust $16 (ebay)
2 - 5 gal buckets. One for the plant and one for my reservoir. $6 (local grow store)
1 - Kenmore air purifier $10 (Goodwill)
Plumbing:
1 - AquaVita inline water pump 528gal/hr $42 (ebay)
1 - Raindrip Nylon Hose/Pipe Thread Drip Irrigation Filter $12 (HomeDepot)
1- 10 ft of black tubing $5 (local grow store)
3 -Tub Outlet Ebb/Flow Fittings $10 (local grow store)
1 - ActiveAqua 4 inlet 9L/m air pump $28 (local grow store)
2 - AquaVita 4" x 2" Cylinder Air Stones $13 (ebay)
1 - Hydrofarm ring drip $10 (ebay)
DIY Chiller:
1 - Modified Used Vitapur Insta Hot and Cold Water Dispense used as a chiller $30 (ebay)
1 - 12" fan used to help cool chiller $16 (Home Depot)
Scrog net:
1 - 1/2 in. x 10 ft. PVC Sch. 40 Plain-End Pipe used for SCROG net $2 (HomeDepot)
4 - 1/2 in elbows $1.50 (HomeDepot)
1 - Nylon thread $3 (Hobby Lobby)
Bunch of screws FREE already had some
Parts & Accesories:
2 - 84"x52" Reflective rescue blanket for wall reflection $8 (Walmart)
1 - Reflectix 2 ft. x 25 ft. Double Reflective Insulation for buckets $25 (HomeDepot)
2 - Gorilla Glue 1-7/8 in. x 12 yds. Heavy-Duty Duct Tape $10 (HomeDepot)
2 - Black spray paint $2 (Walmart)
I'd say I spent a little over $300 in just this type of setup. I originally was planning of a budget of $100 until I got really into detail on what I needed to be fully prepared lol. I think its not bad considering that its a RDWC system with MH/HPS lighting. Only thing is that I wish my grow box was slightly wider. I am planning to buy this tent for my next grow:
Here are some pics of my setup
Just about done!
These fuckers are badass! 100CFM each. I have them setup as dual inline.
Put one directly on the reflector. Only turns on when lights are on. The other one I moved to outside of the box and is always on for constant air exchange.
The other fan is wrapped in a bunch of cloth to suppress sound. Need to buy sound insulation. its not that bad, but you can still hear it a bit, they are server fans so....lol
All nice and painted!
Inline water pumped, chiller, and res all hooked up!
Air purifier wouldn't fit so I put it right next to the box lol This is why I need a bigger box!
Oh look, shes growing in there!
