First grow in a long while

First grow in a long while after honing my skills a few years back with a stealth PC and cabinet. This ones a custom cabinet that started with cfls and now moving to my new viparspectra. Temps sitting good with a 12 12 from seed cycle with lights on at night to deal with cold and noise.
Gone for space and numbers this (indoor) season.
What up everyone

Good luck!
An inexpensive temp/humidity meter can come in handy if you don't have one.

Good luck!

Thanks mate.
I have one and keep it just outside the box. I should really swap the thing round so I can have the temp probe outside but I have very little control over humidity since it’s in a shed that is outside and has big temp changes. I keep an eye on it though and in my last grow I purchased a small dehumidifier. I’m more concerned at the moment about keeping temp differences minimal, but I know I’ll need to dry things out very soon.
Still popping regular bag seeds to find a female or two.

Spent the day fixing temp problems with a $4 windshield screen or two. Insulation. My lows were bad.
I’m impressed with the results. Good stable 27-27C for much of the afternoon and it could only reduce slowly overnight while the cycle readjusts to 12/12.
Gonna have the outtake passive while lights are off, and hopefully temp control the outage during lights on with an Arduino or set of relay switches.
I’m so glad I got the hanging LED. No more mucking around with power boards and cfls.

Also making a magnetic mechanism for interchanging the out take airflow which sucks from the bottom and blocks light. I will need to make something of a carbon filter which ive done before and have a few ideas.

Spent much of the afternoon learning how to program the temp sensor I have in there. Anyone know how these work?
