What floor is the closet on? Can you get under it in the basement, or above it from the attic?

Second floor really old house, rented small bedroom. Atic is like a crawl space wouldn't want to even see what up there. Basement is old rock foundation not really.

If it's rented, then you don't want to cut any holes. Give me the dimensions of the door. I'll cut one out of some scrap plywood I have. That way you can take the door right off and put it back when you leave. I'll drill the holes right in the door for you

The door is 2ftwide and 6.5 high I got to find spots for clothes and crap I got and see. Your love of building got me motivated. Just a little hesitant because landlord comes over once a month to get rent he stays down stairs wouldn't think can smell don't need him smelling anything. Why I would use basement instead but wet down there when heavy rain. You got this thing already built out,lol. Appreciate everything you're willing to do is a understatement.

Is the shelf on a furring strip, or piece of molding? If it is, we can take the shelf out and make a little floating cube for a veg cabinet. Then you can go mini perpetual

I have a few led shop lights that would be perfect for a mother and a few clones. Just grab white paint. Not sure when I'll be able to get over there, but I can build the stuff to fit here at my place and dry fit when I get there. We can tweak it, then you can paint it and slap it in. You won't need anything g big for ventilation, a cheap 8" inline fan would work. Lots of people use muffin fans. I like the inline because you can slunk some flex duct off the end and it acts as a shadow box keeping light out of your closet. The intake should be OK being passive, so ill cut a metal grate into the door with a shadow box on the outside. You have power close by? You'll need a power strip with a timer. You mentioned it's an old house, make sure your outlets are grounded.
Hi mate, loving your feed. In reference to you issue with mites... I have had the displeasure of battling 'The Borg' let me tell you that was the one of most trying times of my life.
At the time, they were very new and destroying peoples crops. I didn't know this and recived clones, turns out had the 'Borg' I spent best part of a year battling them little fucks. from dipping plants in warm water for 15mins so they would drown and flicking the air bubbles off with a chop stick( 22 moms) sprayed everything I could get over the counter, bought a fogger, I knew thier breeding habits better than them so every 3 days spray to break cycle, super heated the room for short periods to toast them bought thousands of predator mites. then resorted to registering as a farmer to get avermectin, that worked... for them to lay dormant until I dropped the ball and they returned. I found after all these methods a product called Nuke 'Em by Flying Skull, this used every 3 days to break up the cycle up to flower then Amblyseius cucumeris and Amblyseius swirskii to eat the what's left of the eggs and population. Hopefully this helps

I know thats what I thought about before Dang outlets and old house worried when leave every time it's on. This house was built bad bro,no insulation between outside wall just stucko and wood. Everything was made cheap. Just buy good power strip that has says it's grounded and protection on good enough.

Yeah, that's good. We can make a box to rest on that. If you have a tape measure I'll need exact dimensions down to 1/8". Measure from the ceiling to the top of the strip it's resting on. I also need the difference in height where the shelf has that wood lip that goes lower on the outside part. 20 is close enough for the width

Lucky for you, I'm an electrician. I'll make up a box with a double duplex on it. Put a male plug on the other end. Not going gfci, because if it trips, you lose your lights. There's protection in the strip anyways. Just lmk how long the wire needs to be

I think just for now getting a closet set up first and environment dialed in before doing mother and clones. Hope I'm not taking away your enthusiasm. You know way more about all this and I know you would see me through right. I think way to much,part OCD,just start with one or two autos for now.Then if goes good can do photos and flip,clones and such. You got big great ideas I've just never done so trying to see it makes me hesitant. Just easier to focus on a plant or two first. Thank you for even willing to do this all,I never had a real friend in my life that would do this. Between your life and kids and all you got going on to help me,need to help you out with anything. Anything landscape related I'm there. Need grass cut,flower bed help, moving heavy rocks you got chores I'll help.

Making some canna pudding for the wife. Tastes like brownie batter. Super easy to make too.
Just microwave a cup of water, pour that water into another cup with a tea bag. Put a tbsp of butter in there and let the heat from the mug melt it. Then stir in your snack pack

All good man. Just post your grow and pass on the goodness while joining the crusade to make America green again. One closet at a time. Get that closet cleaned out and painted and I'll work on getting the light and dehuey to you. Oh, and the door with the holes and such.
Idk why everyone wants to start with autos, but hey its your journey.
