First,kush grow cab

Hi,this is my first indoor grow.i have built a 3ftwide,2 1/2ft deep,and 5ft high growbox outta wood with a wooden door.
I have already put in my 6inch 250cfm exhaust fan and added a carbon filter that i did from following mightybudha's DIY(connected filter right on to end of fan tho).
i have put up my black/white panda although i didn't buy enough so there's still 1 wall and roof not coverd will get more soon.i orderd my 2 intake pc fan's rated at 34cfm but very quite(got screens for them to so no nasty's get in) they should arrive thursday.
i just now have to go get the 3 or 4,32watt cfl's im going to use to veg my kush seeds out,and grab the 6inch clip fan im going to use to circulate the air.
And i should be rdy to start my vegging got all the minor things already as soil,timers etc.
I can't find my dig cam right now so will post pics in morning hope u all enjoy this kush grow,and plz any advise or help welcomed

Here are sum pictures.im pritty excited ill start vegging this wensday-thursday using happy frog potting soil....i am still debating to get a 250watt hps or the 400 due to temps but once the intake fans get here ill have an idea

bump...bump???? im so lonely anyone out there?

i'd go with the 400 HPS. very nice little box you got there.

thanks man,yea was thinkin the 400watt also,got the 6inch clip fan today,and my big grow nutes,ill get the 32watt cfl's thursday ill use to veg when the intake fan's get here and update with pics etc,

sounds good.

UPDATEk so i got my 3 32watt cfl's im using to veg today,and a socket with a reflector around it,originally u could clamp it but took the clamps off.
got my pots as well 5qt container's so hoping that will be big enough for the close to 3ft max i expect to grow them to.
i got my 6inch clip fan aswell i am goin to use to circulate the air and strengthen the stems(really wanna get em hard)and got the rest of the panda to cover the roof,right wall,and floor.
ill update with pics when my intake fan's arrive thursday-fri,also ill start germinating the variety pack of kush seeds i got tonight.Hope all of u enjoy and don't be shy to say wassup man lol,all comments welcomed=)

ok here's sum pic's got the lights hung i ended up with 4 32watt's cfl's but decided with how it look's ill go get 2 more 32watt cfl's and hang them the same way i did.
plz feel free to say anything u want,it's kinda quite around here lol hope u all enjoy the pics

i really like your tent. i'd pass on the CFL's but that's just me. otherwise i really like it. i guess it's just you and me though. here, let's smoke this up.

Looks good kief. I like the cab, that 400 should look good in there. What about getting one of the switchable or dual spectrum and just ditching the cfls...just buy one light...just a thought. I vegged with CFL's and while it worked they certainly didn't grow fast..lol

Check back l8r

ps...puff puff pass

wassup guy's yeah smoke on,just got done takeing sum bong rips lol.
thanks for the comment's,as the cfl's go i got them because i intend on making a veg room but the space of it im afraid is alittle small(2ft high,2&half long, 1&half wide)so i felt that cfl's were way to go.
Correct me if im wrong i just thought mh be to hard to vent.
other wise 2 seeds have cracked just abit so yea,thanks for the comments and the show should start soon =),oh also plan on goin and getting 2more cfl's to kinda help fill the space

i know everyone love's pic's so thought id snap a shot of the area i was talking about using to construct my veg room once the first plants start flowering.
Also picked up this killa-watt thing to see what im using,but i should be fine with only 7plugs in a 8plug heavy duty suger protector right?.And the intake fan's have not arrived yet =/ but still early.
Oh and could anyone throw sum suggestions on how i would make that veg area light leak proof?and air tight?im confused on how to make it light leak proof cuzz of doors.
All comments welcomed and happy smoking

If you're goin small, then not a bad idea. My cab is only 2 x 1.5 x4, and the cfl's vegged alright. I had 10 26w for veg, but they got hot. Much easier for me to keep it cool with the HPS. I haven't used mh yet, so I can't comment on the heat output. GL...

ok well all 3 spouted,no point of pic's yet,plan on starting the 4th plant late,but the dam intake fan's still haven't come maybe 2mar,temps got kinda high,but should be more stable soon,was between 80-91 =/,but maybe cuzz clip fan was unplugged today also?that maybe it.
Well happy 4th all smoke on,and ill update when they get alittle bigger

looking sweet kief... being a newb my self your setup looks doable for me

Well guys their's ben a set back..i yanked my sprouts,due to unstable temps that i didn't like,as a solution i need to get a portable cooler for the garage to lower the temps.
because the garage temps are affects my box,so once i get that(might get 2 and keep it nice out here)ill be back up should only be say a week delay.
but my friend said he'd hook me up with sum vegged out clones so i should be able to put those in my soil,and let it all began
sorry for the delay

Why did you paint your veg box black?? you want it to reflect light not absorb it!

it is a tc unit stand,and thats the bottom of it,it was black to began with.
and ill be putting up panda when it's time to construct it,although dono how to light leak proof it?any idea's as u can see in that one pick the can behind it.

ok decided since i gotta i get a portable air cooler,i would take this advantage to construct my veg room,so pritty much just needa figure out how do i light leak proof it?.
other then that it'll be easy but any idea's of how to?

ok sry for delay on updates but here's the veg room.with a humidifier because i belive u want it at 58%humidity during this stage correct?
and the flowering box intake fan's came but forgot to snag a pic of them(both rated at 34cfm).
got a homie vegging some seedling so ill have sumthing to pop in their right away when i get my portable air cooler wensday.
along with my veg fan's which are, a 88cfm exhaust fan,56cfm intake fan,and two 48cfm fan's for circulation.do u think this will be enough air flow for this area?
oh and adding two more 23cfl's,and can they be that close to reflector?or should i remove it?
here are the pic's hope u guys like and plz post ur comments
