Wil This Fan Do ?

Hi guys,

I am builing a grow box at the moment and I wanted to ask you guys if the size of fan that I have is enough for a small grow box with only one plant and a 100 Watt normal haushold lightbulb?
And another thing, It's probably a stupid question but in what direction do I place the fan ?

Welcome aboard Bisxuits, I've never used PC fans in a Grow, but here's an R.I.U. Link that might help a bit?.. ..

Thanks for the Reply.
The only thing is my Box is a lot lot smaller, but I think I have a ruff idea now.

Hiya mate, sorry can't be much help with the Fan.. depends on a few things though tbh, like Intake(Big or small) the size of the Cabinet and then the size of Exhaust. When you say 100W normal house bulb do you mean CFL? if you limited on Size then PC Fans and Small 4" USB Fans are the way to go.. You got any PICS of Box? Dimensions?

I do remember seeing another Great little Cab build on here Kiefs Cooltube Cabinet build? can't remember baked!!

Hi,

Here's a pic of my Growbox.



No I don't have a CFL, I'm not sure what kind of light I have, the only CFL light that I have is 7 Watts, so I just figured I would take this light I had at 100 Watts cause I heard It kind of works.

Thanks for the Tip.

Hiya, any chance of taking a PIC of Bulb, or maybe you could find and image of the same bulb on amazon or home depot? how far do you have this bulb from the top of the Plant? is the bulb hanging bare? or does it have a Reflector of some kind?

if your bulb is an incandescent bulb (the goto idea of picturing a light bulb in your head) than it is not a suitable choice. you would be much better off going to the hardware store and picking up a four pack of 23(ish) watt cfls to equal close to the incandescrnt. four pack of cfls like that shouldnt costnmore than $7 or so.

Yo, this is the Bulb I'm using:


It is quite far from the plant and yes I have reflectors in my Growbox.
I started a Grow Journal and I have posted some more fotos of my set up there.
