Hey guys recently new here and always wanted to do a plant or two for personal use but never took the time out to try, well i did once but it turned out to be a fish tank full of hermies and yeah they got the axe never to be brought up untill now. well ever since reading your guys posts and seeing how helpful everyone is i decided to find sumthing that was like what i wanted to make. and i came across AKDAZE's grow closet and how he built it.
so i begun buying wood and the supplies to build a smaller replica of what he made and this is what i came up with. it is 23'' wide x 32'' deep x 63'' tall. basicly high enough to fit under a closet shelf and hangar pole.
for ventilation im useing a hp 132watt pc power supply wired up to turn on when its pluged into the wall, its quite simple and i have pictures to show hows its done. this runs 3 80mm fans and 2 120mm fans with no problem i might add a few more to make sure my light hood stays cool and for further circulation inside the cab. 2 of the 80mm pull fresh air into the bottom cab and the 3rd 80mm draws air from the bottom and pulls it up top where the 120mm fan is sucking the air out and pushing it into one of thoes $5 carbon filters that was a write up on here works great for now ill know more later down the line. the other 120mm fan is pulling air thru the 6'' duct's that cool my mh/hps light hood.
for lighting im am useing two cfl 2footers on the top for basicly sprouting seed and maintain clones untill they root. then they will go to the bottom where the 400watt mh/hp light is im not looking for a continual harvest but one every few months is fine with me because like i said this is only for personal use. my cycle is going to be 18/6 then switch to 12/12.
im useing FFOF and LightWarior soil for my medium becase this will be my first true grow and will be much a learning exp, also i hear thats good to go with mixed 50/50 with a little perlite. i was thinking of useing the sensi 2 part nutes and grabing some ph up and ph down for the water and what not. also need to grab a thermomitor / hydromiter and my pots/trays. all this im grabing tomarrow morning when i cash my check.
the seeds that i am germing are mostly bag seeds from NYCD and one of the Skunk plants i just dont rember what number the guy said it was i guess thats a good thing hehe. but yes a few started cracking this morning and showing there little tap roots. so i for sure need to get to the hydro shop in the morning to finish off this little project.
but yes thank you for looking. questions and comments are all welcome. and thank you guys for all the knowlege in one place. now with further adoo here are the pics, i hope.
