Hey! I recently built a cab for growing, and i am going to show off my grow in this thread i was thinking, =)

Cab: 45x50x100 (cm)
Mylar inside

Light(s): 1x 250w CFL 2700K 15000lm
2x 20w CFL 6500K
(I have 2 fluorescent tubes to, but i dont know that much about them, would it make a big difference if i used them aswell?2x30w)

I have a tablefan for some circulation in the cab aswell. At the moment i have two Silver Haze #9 in the cab, just switched to 12/12 after 15 days.

I will update with pictures as soon as i get a hold of a camera.

Atm I dont have any odor control, but i dont have any nearby neighbours so i worry to much about the smell.

Any tips for a successful grow are welcome!
Anybody tried growing these with good results?

Sup dude welcome to RIU!! You have 290 watts already and for 2 plants that's enough but if you can add more lights then yes definately add them! More lights is always better! You have mostly 2700k spectrum so your buds should come out nice with minimum amount of leaves! Would like to see what the cab looks like, add some pics when you can!

Thanks!
I will try to fit some more lights in the cab tomorrow when there is some more time before "lights out".
I am relly looking forward to this grow, after reading other growdiaries and looking at all the amazing pictures. I really hope to get some fat buds like you guys to show off!

Pictures will be uploaded tomorrow or saturday, i´m gonna try tomorrow so I can get some feedback on the cab and plants.

Peace! :)

My temps are 25-28°C when the cab is open a little, and since i only have a pcfan for exhaust I usually have it open during the day, and close it when it´s time for darkness, to get it really dark. But if i close it it´ll reach 31°C in about 5-7 hours(with lights on)

I actually was thinkin about moving the cab to my shed (i dont really know the english name for it but it´s a small structure of no more than 15 square meters), and just let the cab be a little open all of the time, since i never use that "house" anyway exekpt keeping my tools and stuff in it. It´s normal roomtemps in there, so i dont think there will be a prob.
