The best part is its only 4.90 you can afford 5 dollars i know you can lol. i think its on one of the pictures in my grow on here, it was helluh ghetto to begin with but is coming along nice now.

Hey man, i'm working on a 2 sq ft sog too. I have a 2ft metal filing cab for flowering, and i want to get a rubermaid container for mothers/clones. I just made zen style filters, except I only used 1 pencil cup! Just use two layers of stocking on the outside to hold the carbon, saved me $5 per filter and they work great. Think real hard about how/where you're going to mount them because its a pain in the ass and you only want to set it up once.

One thing you have to understand about cooling is that your lights put out a certain amount of heat, and your fan removes a certain amount. The only way to manage temp is to find the balance. I have 2 4.5" exhaust fans(with filters), and 1 input for my box. If that box is airtight, you could get more intake fans to help push air through the filter. Otherwise you'll have to have more fans and filters to keep a negative pressure.

the trunk is close to air tight.... i have one 120mm pc fan pulling air out of the trunk and one 80mm pc fan pulling air outta the rubbermaid. i have a 8 in fan pushing air through the rubbermaid and passive intake for the trunk.... the temps are in the low 100's and i think i need to put another 120mm in the passive intake..... i used pantyhose to light proof the intake and exhaust and i think that is really raising the temps too it feels like it is restricting airflow any advice
