So here is my new plan (acquired a bit more space). Dual chamber Closet grow. Concerned about sizing of the chambers. I have 8L x 2W x 6H to work with so if you guys think there is a better way to section off the space let me know! I will be sectioning it off with polystyrene painted flat white inside.

Also, do you think two of those stanley fans are needed to would one suffice?

Thanks!

One of the bigger fans would be ok for the flower chamber but i would just go with a couple computer fans for the vegging room.

Ok, right on. I built a box out of rubbermaids and really am not pleased with it so I am rebuilding my setup this weekend. I will post up photos of the build as it goes. I already have some pc fans so Ill start with those since I only own one of the blower fans.

What do you guys think about the sizing and how it was sectioned off?

Def looks good, i think you will def have good success, dont know much about those fans, sorry, personally i think you will need more then a couple computer fans, you probably wouldnt need alot of cfm for the veg room though.. If you can i think it would be cool to split the veg room in half horizontally so maybe the top is 2 feet and the bottom is 4 feet, I mean realistically your not going to need 6 feet of vegging room especially if your using cfl's, might be a nice space for clones, you could lst some moms, or even lst some males... Its actually what im doing to my cab right now, almost done with it.. except im using 4.5 feet to flower scrog method and im using 2 feet for breeding purposes and clones..

So I worked on the box for 12 hours today! Really fun, ton of work. Hit alot of issues I had to solve. Wasnt lightproof, door had isses (still has a few), box is too hot but power adapter i am using is only able to power 6 of the 10 computer Fans I have at the cieling. Im too tired to post pics but I will sometime tomorrow when its closer to completion.
:peace:

So temps have been really high so I rebuilt the ventilation system. I now have the stanley blower pulling air out at the top through a 4in outtake vent. The intake is a six inch (going to size it down to some 4 so its not bigger than the outtake) tube with a computer fan pushing air into it. I have 5 computer fans blowing air around the cabinet to give some air movement.

My temp is sitting at 82.9, thoughts on temp? I have heard that below 85 your good, also heard below 78 and your good.

Took your advice and made a shelf divider in the veg cabinet. Dont have the skills/money/time to build out the now third chamber but at least its there for when I do. I thought it might be easier to cool down the cabinet if it were smaller since the air would cycle through faster.
