My 150w closet cultivator!

[VaporBros]

Well i finally got the main cab up and running. Only 90% though. The door wont shut completely because i need to drill a hole for the ballast chord to go through (it got late so I had to hold off till tomorrow)

I also need to cut the hole for my exhaust (4" vortex) and cut a square out where I will install a DarkRoom Louver for passive intake. Temps are a little high right now because airflow is horrible but that will be fixed this week.

After these two plants are done I will be starting a 12 plant SoG 12/12 from seed.

Telll me what ya think of it so far, im extremely happy with it at this point and im excited to see what it will give back in time.

or are u just gonna bend em?

 

[VaporBros]

great thanks, i am looking for something like this for a scrog....when in the closet where do you plan on venting? out the top? or front door?


Thanks

 

[VaporBros]

ill have a passive intake vent on the door and ill be exhausting out the top with the vortex

 

[dusty26]

I'm honestly considering it as well... low #2

 

[gotkush?]

looking good Vapo, You got nutes yet? where did ya get your light? how much? what are you growing right now? are you gonna filter the exhaust?

I'll be checking in with you for sure. It would make a nice journal grow too.

your going to need some form of ventilation that will exchange the air in the grow room with the air in the house. the little fan you have is a start but your gonne need vents. try going for passive air movement. also you will have a smelly grow on your hands at some point you need a way to control that smell

edit you talked about ventiliation

 

[VaporBros]

yes sir. To answer some questions you had. Im growing Banana Kush and Blackberry kush clones right now. They are just not doing good at all and I cant figure out why exactly. I might pick up some real nutes today because this Schultz stuff isnt working out. The light is a 150w from HTG. Its nice, gets bright, but really hott. And yeah, I plan on adding an 8" vent on the front door and having my 4" inline exhaust out the hot/stinky air and go through the filter.

Oh and the light cost me $108 shipped with two metal flanges (for cool hoods)

Im going toi be getting some Serious Chronic clones that are taken from professionally grown mothers. Hopefully my bad luck has come from my clinic-bought clones. These should be better. Ill keep you posted on the new grow once it falls into place man. Thanks!

 

[dusty26]

hey vb. you say that 150 watter gets really hot ? for real ?
hmmm now I know htg is really cheap and couldn't figure out how they are way cheaper than anyone else.. i've been to the shop and they seem to have nice products IDK ... hmmm...

108 dollars shipped to the door,,, i went down there a few weeks ago jus to look and the one I want to get is 117$ in the store 250 watt mh... (130$ on ebay) are they good lights bro ?

 

[VaporBros]

Yeah i like mine. Its only running hot becuase i dont have any ventilation. With the proper fan and vents my cab would be cherry. Definitly check out their stuff!

 

[probo24]

Nice cab man.
What did you use for light leaks at the seams, and corners?

 

[VaporBros]

i bought a $2 roll of thin foam weather stripping. It work perfectly. I also added a small magnet so the door seals shut nicely!

 

[litljohn]

you should rewire the light so you can have a remote ballast.this will cut the heat down.

 

[VaporBros]

teh ballast is remote. It sits on top of the cab. I need to install my Vortex :/
