- The road to hell is paved with good intentions
We all start growing for different reasons, but there remains
one generic constant for most... good herb, strike that... Great herb. If nothing else, at least something better than what's on the block.
Back to the program.
I built a cab kinda like an old one i made.
Outside dimensions = 3' x 3' x 8.5' tall. It has a 1.5" thick partition 5' off the floor creating 2 separate chambers, one on top of the other.
Pics of cab will be available later in the grow.
The top chamber is roughly 3.5' tall for vegging and has a 400w MH in a CoolTube (independently cooled/sealed from grow). Ya.. i know..... it's tight. Real tight. But for the sake of expediting the process this decision was made. And it's worked great so far.
The bottom chamber has a 400w CMH and two 42w CFL's for supplemental lighting. Both chambers are exhausted by a single 4" 170cfm growbright inline fan through a carbon filter.
Intake"
s", emphasis on the "s", alot. The Cab sits in a shop of sorts and there's a bunch of crap floating around in the air. I decided to create a positive pressure situation to help prevent crud from floating in the cab.
Here's some pics @ Day 34 after transplanting.

Ah. Young love.
The feeling of great possibilities, new experiences....... and a fat estrogenical reality check that reminds you of the potential for catastrophe. There's only
so much you can tell a guy about his drunken, socialite wife without throwing the PBR down and tradin' some punches.
Next time on the ricky ricard0 show, we'll see if we can telepathically grow these babies since i can't be there with them every day. I'll let you guys know how
that goes. More
= more choke..... must... find .. water.
