im thinkin of buildin a new grow cab, ive just got a spare wardrobe, ive got a 100 watt hps and i was thinkin bout putin a small 20watt t4 at the bottom to get them started, i dont have any 400watt hps or 600 left so im stuck with a 100watter, will this work, also can i just use 4 pc fans as ventilation, it has to be silent aswell, im also worried about heat coz if i get caught wit weed 1 more time im goin to prison and i can forget about uni, any ideas and advice are appreciated.

How many plants are you planning to grow with the 100w? For that space a 100w should do fine, I mean not the best, but should grow fine depending on how many plants you plan to grow.

hey UK. nice to meet fellow Brit. OK 100w will easily be cooled with 4 computer fans im a big fan (excuse the pun) of small comp fans have 13 in my room awesome for electric use. and can be placed newhere. the problems with wardrobes is most of the time they are not light tight so you would need to look at coating the inside with black and white making sure to have an overlap of black and white where the doors meet.
in a norm size uk double wardrobe i would look at doing 4 plants but if i had single wardrobe it would have to be 1 plant under screen vegged for a good month or 2 with a bit of topping thrown in to make her fill up that wardrobe might even consider screens on the walls of wardrobes and do a type of mini vert grow. the heat from 100w really isnt to much to worry about if u find come summer ur temps are hard to control just use lights at night. last summer was running my veg room from 7pm - 11am helps alot.

now me im a bubbler guy all the way dwc it has to be never shall i grow in soil again. what medium are you looking at using?soil or hydro?

lol aint got a clue bru for ur area ur best bet is do a search then locate with google maps.
got a few round my end but 1 is under constant surveillance so check that before you go into the shops the last thing you want is to be associated with the shop.
