    Awesome, i dig your style. Fridge is an awesome idea. My only concern was it'll be like a subway bread oven with lights in there, then I saw you can plumb some AC in there, and LED. Sounds like you're on top of it.

    I love the dorm grow G8 LED, Grow420guide on youtube Is AN AWESOME channel, and now he's a dorm grow sponsor with a gigantic led he just hooked up from them. Highly recommend to go check him out

    It's like the Billy Mayes thread :lol:

    Edit, side note... I didn't like my topping results on my basil, made everything so tight together that the leaves all smashed into each other lol. It is in a tiny pot though heh.

    I think the basil will stretch the nodes out when it goes outside.I'm gonna sell the basil to fund my "other project"
     
    DAY 11
    As for temps.......I got my fan today!!!!
    oh yes I plumbed it and i'm testing it right now.Fan is at medium.
    Doors closed,light on 86.1 F and dropping. garage is still in the mid to upper 90's 
     
    side note
    I plumbed the fan to pull from 2 4" vents at top,cold air is plumbed to 1  4" vent at very bottom.
    I used the return side of my home handler.Not as cool as the condenser side, But may contain slightly more Co2(maybe).If I need it cooler,I'll run a splitter to the cold side.
