After the light is completely sealed out of the box, you need to TEST IT to MAKE SURE. the BEST way to do this, is to wait until night time when it is pitch black outside. If your area never gets pitch black, just close the blinds and curtains, turn off the light and anything producing light...

Now that the entire box is turned into its own little enviorment with proper air flow and light sealing we have to think about fabricating a light trap for both the intake and exhast fans. There are two ways to do this, one is more stealth than the other, and is the method I will be using...

Now that everything is finished structurally, the air flow is good to go and everything is air/water sealed - we need to put DOORS on this box. This is a tricky process because even as a skilled wood worker, its very hard to craft doors that not only are air tight but also light sealed. I...

Now that the vent system is in place and running great - I should probably water proof the bottom of the box for OBVIOUS reasons. To do this, many people think garbage bags and tape will do the trick - theyre wrong. the garbage bag can leak water into the MIDDLE of the bag lining and MOLD...

Now that the vent system holes are drilled and everything good to go - I need to now coat the inside of the box with one of a bunch of things I will list. 1. Flat White Paint - Cheapest, Good Reflectivity and wont blind you every time you look inside the room/box lol... 2. Mylar sheets -...

My next project is to figure out the ventilation system. Since everything is structurally alright, now I have to plan the air flow because I will need to drill holes - this has to be done before paint or mylar on the walls. I fabricated a design that I believe would work. It goes as follows:

I then hollowed out the box and refortified it with finishing nails and a couple heavy duty screws to ensure it doesn't fall apart. I then put a fitted wooden "rod" across the front of the vertically and horizontally to form a cross, screwed it in for more fortification and also to later...

My first step was to build the cabinet itself. I had this shitty entertainment center that looked like garbage sitting in the garage. I decided to sand it down and hollow it out. Originally it looked like this:

* I dont have a patent, im not going to pretend to, but I came up with this design and have extensive notes taken in multiple 5 subject notebooks spanning an entire year of fabrication. I dont care if you guys build this and use it for personal growing but if I find this exact product being...

SOmetimes females produce random seeds - apparently if a female never gets pollinated they can either produce a sack or 2 themselves to get the job done or just use its own genetics to create another seed. Many growers call these seeds Clone Seeds because they have the exact genetics of the...

Lol nice paper clip idea. I actually just tied them w pipe cleaner I figured it would hold onto them pretty tight - but that paper clip idea is pretty sick :) Congrats on your first harvest, its always the best but usually the worst quality - your next grow will be 10x better even if this nug...

Oh, they alrdy are. Disregard.

Get those out of solo cups and into 2+ gallon planters asap. As much as everyone wants to talk a big game, you cannot get a huge harvest off of a plant in a solo cup. I have an experiment running now, same strains 5 plants - 1 in 5 gal, 1 in 4, 1 in 3, 1 in 2, 1 in 1. All germinated and...

Yeah my apologies for blowing up your post, it wasn't my intention. I just hate when people say the words "wives tale" when talking about something scientifically proven. I understand he has 9000 posts but my entire theory to helping and sharing information is that if I do not know about what...

Dude listen, I see you have 9000 posts and some signature I guess I should envy - but really, you're wrong. A wives tale? Have you taken a simple introduction to botany class at any college or trade school? Or even read a book on the subject? It is a PROVEN FACT, in EVERY book of gardening...

When beads of water are left on the plant it causes a "magnifying glass" reaction where the bead shoots high powered magnified light directly into the foliage which causes it to dry up and die. I lost an entire crop doing this. Dont mist your plants, dont water your plants when the light is on...

Not to be a dick but not too much attention is neccessary, the beaded water is right there standing out like a sore thumb.

Hey dude! I saw your post and wanted to come help because you have the same type of setup as me, except my setup is in a giant entertainment center that is 5 feet wide! I am going to guess a couple of things, please correct me if I am wrong. 1. The upper fan is the exhaust fan, and the lower...

PS my plan : Let it flood today cuz i cant stop it, dry everything out tomorrow, lay down soil on the outside, compact it, and then concrete the INSIDE where the water is coming from and then attempt to i guess foam seal it? idk..

What kind of stuff could I do, DIY obviously, to try to redirect the water off of where it is going in. I thought of soil, dont think thatll work and i know sand will jus let the water push passed it and into it any idea guys? usually all of u think outside the box.
