    GrayGhost, I am here to help. I made this journal so that people can learn from my design and re-create it for themselves. Having said that, putting the wardrobe together was a very difficult task. If you can, see if you can acquire a wardrobe of the same dimensions pre-built and get it...

    Hey thanks for the advice, Loudblunts. When I built the cabinet, I reinforced all the shelves with 1" wood screws, 2 on each side. They give you the little metal supports to fit in the holes but they weren't sturdy enough to fit my specifications. Trust me the wardrobe is sturdy, and for moving...

    Cheapest Clear Tubing For A DIY Cooltube?

    Well my cooltube setup has a pc fan in my clone/mother chamber and a pc fan in my veg chamber sucking air through the cooltube and then sucked through an inline fan into a carbon filter. You need a steady airflow over the bulb to cool it so either a fan blowing air through it or a fan sucking...

    One thing I noticed looking in the box: There isn't enough width space for the bake-a-round as the glass for the cooltube. Any recommendations for another product that can be used in its place? It needs to be smaller than the 14" the bake-a-round takes up...

    The Dude 4552s' Rubbermaid stealth grow winter 2008

    Well to all those following this journal I am reporting that this grow has come to an end. I am focusing all my attention now on my perpetual cabinet build. I ended the grow Tuesday, stripped the box and kept all the supplies. I am in no way dissatisfied with the design, it was working...

    Construction Update! So today I sanded and cleaned the holes I drilled the other day. I also took some pictures of the construction process for the exhaust and intake. Now on the outside back of the wardrobe I will place my 2" elbow PVC pipes. To seal the holes and keep the pipes in place I...

    Light timer's

    Saving energy is all the rave in consumer markets these days, so light timers have made it into the mainstream. You can get them at any major department store. I spent $15 bucks on a digital timer and it has 12/24 hour time, day of the week presets and 20 programs! who even needs that many...

    Alright, Construction update! First of all, safety first. When drilling into wood with a high-powered tool like this one, sawdust will be flying in all directions. That's why The Dude says: Goggles and a mask! You dont want to get woodchips in your eyes or in your lungs now do you? OK, I...

    Being as I am primarily working on the clone chamber at the moment, I'll fill you in on what lighting I am using: It is a 20" Satellite 40W SunPaq with Lunar light aquarium fixture. I had 23" of clearance so I had to go searching for a suitable fluorescent fixture. I found this 20" 2-in-1...

    2' , 2 fluoro bulb fixtures for veg question

    Having a mixed spectrum is good for simulating the actual colour temperature of natural sunlight. but in the vegetative stage the plants absorb the light from the bluer side of the spectrum. My opinion for vegging, 4 cool white (or is it warm white?) 6500K tubes is fine.

    Alright. So I found the right tool for the holes: A handheld cut-out tool. Its kind of like a handheld jigsaw. I will be drilling the holes for tomorrow but for today: I added a dry erase calender for keeping track of lighting schedules, watering schedules, nutrient concentrations and a...
