After doing alot of reading,and finally getting my medical card. im ready to start a DIY grow box. Here goes my plans let me know what u think. Box dimensions 5'x3'x5' high. there will be three areas in the box flower area will be 3'x3'x5'. clone/mother 2' x 3'x 3' and utility area 2'x3'x 2'. Vent/odor i plan on following these two ideas ( has anyone used these for their boxes?) http://forum.grasscity.com/do-yourself/598023-*basic-diy*-modifying-stanley-blower-cooling.html http://forum.grasscity.com/do-yourself/699503-diy-pro-grade-400cfm-air-filter.html My box will be in the basement and i wold like to use a HEPA filter on the air inlet. Does anyone see a issue with doing this? Plants will be in 3gal smart pots plan on mixing equal parts of FF ocean floor and happy frog. I also plan on doing some LSTing to keeping the plants a bit lower from the lights. I got a killer deal on my bulb 400w(hortilux), ballast and hood for $150.00. To control my fan/temps i was looking in to this C.A.P. TMP-DNe Digital Cooling Thermostat - Greners.com Again any input would be great.
Has anyone used this for paint in their cabnet? Got this from a post on "getting the most from your lights" Elastomere paint (info by furun) A rubberized roofing paint with 90% reflection.

Kool Seal White Elastomeric Roof Coating ~ $15.00 (1 Gallon) Ultra high reflectivity Forms a rubber-like blanket that expands and contracts Adheres to almost any surface (very good on wood and metal) Available @ www.lowes.com
