So an update on the new cab for flowering, getting there still have to do fresh air intake and hot air output. mount another power strip.The fan you see in the pics is for the lights ballast to push that hot air out of the cab i made for the light its self,so yeah a cab inside a cab heh heh. Looks like this cab will be ready for my plant to finish in while a start a new batch in the flower cab. I may even try my luck at cloning.
Oh and I can't forget the carbon filter this cab is going to have to have one.
45" tall 34" wide 22 " deep that ends up being 19.479166666666668 Cu.ft.(it's not huge however I can get inside and close the door and I am a full grown man!) my Veg Cab is 8 Cu.Ft. so yeah I may have to toss some CFL's up in there to help out the 150W HPS. I plan on flowering 2 plants the first go around, and maybe scrog just one the second. My ulitmate goal it to harvest 2oz every 8 weeks.
Flower Cab update. I made a carbon filter for my 80mm 120 CFM PC fan This turned out nice because I tried to use this as my intake fan but it spins so fast it was loud. With this rig I set up ist strong enough to suck air thru nicely and it make it allmost silent.I may add one more intake or change the fan as it is only rated at 40 CFM but its quite, I will know more after my firt heat test. Need to do some cable management as well.
As for the DYI Carbon filter I tryed to to the one I had seen on the forums here but walmart did not have the rubbermaid pencil holders so I made due. I won't know how good it works for a while yet.Oh and the last thing is a final light test gotta make sure this thing has no light leaks.
So I decided to scrap the DWC part of the grow, Brown slime back and I have found so far the MG to be much less work. I transplanted the two.
As you can see one of the DWC plant was doing really poorly. I did do some lst on the original MG plants.
hey recu, once again great setup, shame about the dwc, it wud have been good to compare. thx for letting that guy know how to sub, now I can to. good luck and happy growing

Here is an update .
So the planter I moved to the flower cab are FEMALES!!!!!!!! the other I am not sure of yet. How good are my odds of a transplant to a bigger pot? I have given the ones in the flower cab zero nutes, what do you guys suggest nute wise going forward.Oh and I added two CFLs to the flower cab both 2300k 23w
I was bummed as well but with the Brown slime back, the constant checking Ph,nutes,adding water to the right level brewin tea to combat the slime and weekly res changes I find soil so far to be much much less work for my noobness.I have all the stuff for DWC so I am sure I will do another soon. Meanwhile I'll be reading up on the many types of mediums.
