Hi All! My first thread on the forums (besides the introducing) Ill be showing off what i will do with a closet wich can be bought at Ikea's.

Components i will be using: - Davin DV12 relais + clock - 150watt HPS + VSA - AKF eco carbon airfilter 160cbm3 / 100mm - Air-outake hose 100mm Combidec - Pipe 100mm - 25x25x26mm pots - black & white foil 2x3m - 100cm3 airmover - Rings - White tape - punaise - rubbers - Airintake 25x5cm aluminium - Airstrips - Hooks - flexibel snoer + stekker - chain 4m - EasyRoll - water resistent foil The closet: 80x50x180cm (32x20x72 inch) The electric-wiring: In the next few days i will be receiving the components and will report every step i take in building this growroom Piece !
You plan on just blacking out the inside with panda film so the glass pandels look dark grey from outside?
Here are some pics from stuff wich i bought today. The rest will be bought tomarrow, so i will be building this on saturday
Ive done the air-intake and outtake. Next will be black/white foil and pond foil. That will be tomarrow Outtake hole Intake Rubber sealed, so no light can escape Piece ZZ
I might be missing something but wouldn't a 400 HPS do a much better job? Looks like you are setting up for 4 plants.
Not necessarily, with more power in the lights, you need more power in the fans to keep it cool, meaning a louder and way less stealth box. It says "silent" right in the title, so I think this is a major concern here. A 400 watt could do worse than a 150 if you don't have enough fan to keep up with the heat it puts out. I'd rather have a cabinet with a 150 running at 75 degrees instead of a 400 watter running at 90+ I've seen people get 3+ ounces per harvest with a 150 watt HPS, and you'll have a much easier time cooling it. If this is enough weed for your needs, then why not?
Correct, My last run was 166 gram under 150watts. That is 1.12gramm/watt and that seriously isnt bad. http://www.wietforum.nl/uploads/1197989228/med_gallery_10811_3371_1631266.jpg Im doing it with a 150watts to keep my electrical bill low, and the closet will be stealthy and silent. Minimum chance to get caught, maximum pleasure! And yes, its much easyer to control temprature in this room.
how do you plan to control temps? i dont mean to be discouraging, and maybe you know something i dont, but i think your going to have major temp problems in that cab if you want it to be silent. it has been my experience that a fan that is "quiet" will not pull enough air through that cab to keep it cool enough, specially with a hot hps lamp. not to mention with that big carbon scrubber you will need a fan with good static pulling power (meaning a really loud fan). you might have to pipe A/C into the cab if your planning on using a quiet fan. take a look at the grow design linked in my sig. my cab is a similar size but im using cfls and i still had temp problems. i planned to make it a silent stealth cab as well and temp problems killed that idea. well my cab is stealthy when my exhaust fan is off, but with the fan on all stealth is lost. dont get me wrong, im just trying to help by sharing my experience. and i hope you prove me wrong so i can make my cab quiet again. but i think your going to need a magical fan. edit: i realized i said nothing positive. lol. your cab looks really clean and i like those intakes. looks better than my hole and easier to light trap i imagine. keep it up man! gl
ya i just ran across another grow of yours http://forum.grasscity.com/indoor-g...ackberry-under-150watt-hps-holland-style.html wow... just.. wow man. i dont think you need my help at all. after seeing that im really thinking about getting an 150 hps for flowering. keep it up dude
Hi there, I've been looking to do something similar in style except using a drip irrigation system. How much excluding your light did your system cost?
