Entertainment grow.

I took a mid sized entertainment center, and turned it into a grow cab pretty much.
I have 3 main compartments. one of which is shelved. I use the shelved comp. for storage/fan (top shelf) drying(middle shelf) and veg (lower shelf). I am going to conjoin the other 2 compartments for more height being they are over and under. This is the flowering chamber. I have a 250cfm fan on the top thelf and carbon filter ducted into the flowering chamber. I am only using 2 150wt. cfls in the flowering chamber. (that's actual wattage not replacement).one is 6500 kelvin the other is 3000. I drilled 2 2 inch holes in the lower corners of the 2 chambers, totaling 4 holes for intake air. I drilled offset holes through the shelves for airflow . My exhaust is a ducted 4 inch hole which runs into the bathroom. The center itself is in my closet. Air is pulled into my closet, through the center out into the bathroom. The chambers are both painted white. I still need to make the center air/light tight. I also have small desk fans inside, blowing the plants around a bit.

I am converting to a 200w self ballasted hps setup for the flowering chamber.
And would like to go led in the veg. chamber, along with all through my house to save more electricity.

There is only 3 plants at this time 2 snocap, 1 blowfish.

Any tips for the air flow, or lights. Ill work on pics to show u guys.:peace:

uh-huh. Um, I fail to see what anal intercourse has anything to do with entertainment growth. But hey, I don't mind the extra tightness. ;)

sorry guys im back, ill be workin on pics tonight or tommorrow, i did however get a few things done on the center, i have also stared experimenting with my first homebuilt dwc, and i got one for the you know your a stoner when...
ill just tell the story.
i was mixing how many ml. of nutrients were needed per liter of water, instead of tsp. per gallon. i did 4 ml of my nutes to a gallon of water when i needed 6 teaspoons of nutes per gallon. Dumbass. i didnt catch it until i got a bigger copy of the recipe for this set of nutes. the plants looked good and are in full bud, but ill see the difference in the much larger amount of nutes. it should really take off now. I also didnt see some other fine print about the nut being low ph in the first 24 hours, not to change the ph for that time and to not let it get higher than 6.5.
