Well guys, I'm about 26 days into my grow right now and it's now day two in the new cab so I figured I'd start a new journal, in the correct forum, so as to get a lil more exposure. I still need to do a few minor things to the cab, but overall I am so much more happy with it than i was with the rubbermaid. Follow up for some conversation, tips and tricks. I'll help out where I can but I plan on doing most of the learning
. Have fun reading!![Big Joint :bigjoint: :bigjoint:](/styles/smilies/smoking.gif)
