LED Closet Grow

Hello there, trying my hand at growing again. Had to take a few years off due to moving and life and whatnot, but I'm back again to this amazing hobby.

Built myself a little grow cabinet for the closet out of 2x4s and plywood. Dimensions are 42 width 58 high and 24 deep. I'm running a 500w led light switch switchable veg/flower. I have another identical one that I'm considering incorporating at some point, but we will see. There a 4 inch inline fan for the intake, and a 6 inch for the exhaust. My plan is to fit six plants in here, I know its a small space, so I'll definitely have to do some topping and whatnot but I'll make it work. Using fox farm trio for nutes and just soil for medium. Not exactly sure on the strains yet, but I'm set to get 6 clones here in a week. I'm going to try and get them all indica, but I am going to have 6 different strains just to mix it up.

Super excited for this grow fello farmers!!! Any advice, comments, criticism all welcome!!

Thanks guys.

The brand name of it is "Top Led" its this Chinese made product. Im sure its not the most top of the line unit out there, but I got it reffered to be from a friend, so them being at a reasonable price I figured I would try them out.

Yeah they do seem really similar. Little bit different as far as the layout of the lights, but I suppose you could say that of any brand/model. A few years back when I used to grow, I used just one 1000w hps. So I'm excited to see the differences between the two set ups.

So like i said in my initial description, I have the 4 inch intake, and the 6 inch exhaust, which keeps the air moving nicely. But, do you guys think it would be advantageous to have an additional fan in there? Maybe just a little 6ich clip one just to get even more air movement for the plants? Let me know what you think, thank you

Hello fellow farmers. Finally got my clones in. Ok so from left to right, starting from the back row we have....blue city diesel, jack herer, train wreck, then the front row is another blue city, Sonoma coma then a sensi star....then a solo cup of girl scout cookies. I'm excited!!

Looks great. I bet you're excited to be back into gardening.
It seems like the intake fan wouldn't be necessary. Yea, you should definitely have a fan inside to encourage strong branching.

That's kinda what I was thinking, I was hoping that the 2 fans would be enough, and they are moving around a bit, but an additional fan is going to do nothing but help. Thanks for checking out my log. These are all completely new strains for me, anyone have experience with these? Comments or do's and don'ts? Thank you
