Stealthy,

This cabinet is so friggin slick. But I cant help but wonder why you dont pack your cabinet full of plants. You could cram 6 in there easily (probably more). Yah it might be crowded and as a result the 6 plants might not grow as nice as 2, but 6 plants will out produce 2 plants none the less. You have all this attention to detail in order to increase yield except the most important one (ie:more plants).

Any reasoning behind that?

so why isn't this medium of bud legal?
WHY?
1) bud can and will single handedly destroy Big Pharma, Tobacco, and Alcohol. Marijuana is cheaper to produce has less side effects and can take the place of all these industries. Why would anyone need sleeping pills or anti depresants or pain relievers or alcohol or tobacco when you can just toke up? This is BIG BIG money for these industries I mentioned.

2) Who do you think funds these political parties with bribes in the form of "donations" to the politicians to keep their interest ends? These same industries thats who. On top of that marijuana will always fetch a good demand for quality. Which means that the small guy can capitalize on this and industry cant really snuff the little guy out. Yah big industry can mass produce marijuana but quality will go down (think organic food vs food inc).

3) Governments around the world use drug lords as puppets. There are many documentaries of the CIA smuggling drugs into the USA for example. How it works is there will be a local drug lord in XYZ country. Another government allows that drug lord to import X amount of their product into the other country IF that said country gets rights to exploit said country for other resources. As soon as the drug lord gets cocky or stops playing ball that same country from before starts funding and/or supporting the drug lords rivals in order to keep their puppet state. Also as long as a country is torn apart with internal conflict they cannot grow into a world power so its also a means to keep conflicts from going nuclear... literally.

4) there are more reasons why bud is illegal but these are some major ones. Only mankind is egoic enough to declare war on nature. It blows my mind how a plant that grows naturally in the wild is evil when we got White Collar scandals bankrupting average people out of their retirement for millions of dollars, corrupt politicians taking "donations" (ie: bribes) from big industry to push their ajenda, and the banking complex orchestrating recessions so they can buy up companies for cents on the dollar (or whatever your denomination is).... yet a plant that has no long term side effects, is relatively, heap to produce, helps with all kinds of ailments and diseases, causes extreme amounts of happiness, and is zero calories as evil

On Another note: I know this is old news but that guy saying that you are putting your fam in jeopardy and you should grow up... please the popos are looking for major grow ops they arent gonna waste resources and money and man hours on a family man growing under 10 plants especially if the plants on the small side (under 4 feet tall at end of bloom phase). It costs law enforcement $10,000s - $1,000,000s of dollars to run investigations, get warrants, then win court cases... they dont got time or money to waste on small guys unless the bone is dropped right on their stoop. The only way you gonna caught is if someone rats you out or if you are beyond careless where they dont really have to investigate anything that much. You are too small a fish for them to actively seek you out. They want and go after big busts to make headlines and to ask for even more funding from the government. Yah they might bust a dealer but thats just to get at the big time suppliers and they will cut a deal in order for the dealer to walk (albeit on probation) or serve very little time. Ive talked to customs agents about this topic before and as far as customs go... they spend their time investigating 40 lbs or more. I cant speak for any other law enforcement agency. I can imagine as one goes down the law enforcement food chain that the amounts that they typically go after get smaller and smaller. But again if you are minding your own business and keeping quiet then I dont see how this is a big deal. Some documentaries site that its estimated that only about about 20% of all marijuana is caught that means 80% of the time you wont get caught (who knows how accurate that is but lets just say for argument's sake that it is accurate).. even less so if you arent dealing and staying on your property and minding your own business and paying your taxes.

I recommend you watch the "Never Get Caught Again" Vol1 and Vol2. You can Bit torrent from pretty much any site.

Hi dude, Yeah there's a reason :) glad you bought that up... I am starting my grow with 2 hydro DWC pots but as I progress from the 250W and onto the 400W and 600W I will add soil pots around the hydro pots...I have never really done a soil grow so I figured if it goes bad at least I'll have 2 guarenteed plants with the hydro setup. Later on down the line if I decide to change from 18/6 veg to 12/12 from seed then potentialy I'll have a perpetual grow room (if I get the hang off soil pots)..just an idea. - STELTHY

First off let me congratulate you on a well thought out and put together custom grow cab. It takes alot of dedication to do what you have done. The other thing I wanted to say is that, I have heard that putting soil and hydro grows together in close proximity is generally not a good idea. I have never tried soil and hydro along side each other but I have heard that cross contamination and soil getting into the rez is a very bad thing. Just thought I would give you some stuff to think about. I hope this helps. Keep up the excellent work, the cab looks amazing.

Peace and positive energy to you

Ok I am stressing big time.. There are so many wires its proving difficult to lay the sound mat.. I have double sound proofed the walls and lid where needed and just layed it on the top floor section. so its not to much of a mission to adjust my light hangers etc etc... Also I have decided to take out the stereo from the left (fan section) and am going to mount it on the very top, reason being is its location at the moment is bang in the way and I figure it'll only cause more stress in the future once my grow has started.. so it needs to be moved, also to keep the unit more stealth I plan on having just plain black wood as the front and only a small section of perspex (tinted) just big enough to see the cctv through.. If I went all mad like I had originally planned and put a black light in etc to show the workings off I would be spending extra money for no reason what so ever and taken to long to get started ..I'll add my progress so far with pics this evening, thankyou for your patience :) - STELTHY

I took out the Rhino sound proofing and measured and cut it to size to fit the wooden panels housing my top section of my cab - STELTHY

The sound mat is hella sticky so no room for any mistakes :) You'll notice I have left a strip at the bottom of the wood.. this is so the panels fit snug - STELTHY

I am also using acoustic foam sound deadening to make the top box as quiet as possibe (in-line fan section only) - STELTHY

And that is the left panel done I've done pretty much the same to the other panels... except in the filter area, there I have just the aluminium sound mat to deter mould etc and smelly foam :) - STELTHY

This pic was taken before I added the back section.. but the ballast section will have a series of CPU fans attached from the back and wired into another transformer plug, so when the whole unit is sealed the ballasts will be kept cool, Ill add vents at the front too, I really need to buy a few more things before I can mod. much further but I'll see what I can achieve tomoz - STELTHY:leaf:

Wow, I don't think I've ever read 69 consecutive pages of a post, but, alas, I'm here, lol. I guess this thread's just so interesting. I'm subbed for sure.
