Here's my indoor grow. PICS

Got this old clothing cabinet. Converted it into a grow cabinet. It has 4 150 watt CFL's and 1 23 watt CFL. Got ten (10) seeds from a bank a couple weeks ago. My air vent is as follows: I have a ten inch, 300 cfm intake fan mounted up top. Two (2) 4 1/2 discharge fans mounted down below to draw the hot air from up top and out of the cabinet. I have the grow cabinet in my shed where I can reach over 90 degrees. The 10 inch intake fan is position right next to a window (for right now) to draw in cooler, fresher air. The interior of the cabinet has been lined with white coraplast. Reflects the light real well. Oh yeah, this Hindu Kush.

Well. you have your fans backwords to start off :-). you want your exhaust up top and your intake down bottom. put your larger fan as your exhaust up top pulling air out of the cabinet. that 300cfm fan is more then enough to act as exhaust and passive intake for that small space. but pc fans are nice and create a breeze for the plants stems.

Your temps u want around 75-82 with humidity around 45-55%.

Before you start 12/12 you will want to make that light tight. no light in or out. so that will consist of something to cover the outside of your fans to shield from light getting in but still allowing it to draw air or push.

It is very easy to over water. you do not want to over water.
Your Cups are clear. you do not want the soil or the roots to get any light otherwise u will start to grow mold in the soil and you will get root rot. both will kill your plant after time. just take a red party cup and put the clear one into it.
Make sure your cups can drain very well. alot of holes at the bottom and bottom sides.
That is abit to much light for those little seedlings maybe slim down on a cupple bulbs for now?
What kinda soil are you usen?

Here is the thread to my new grow cabinet i just made past weakend. had to shut down the closet grow because i couldnt controle the climate well enough. my girls where not enjoying it. In abit i will take updated pictures for u and put them up there.

P.S im no pro learning my self. its alot of fun building one of these

those cfls would be better if u mounted them so they layed down. if u can get the sides pointing to the plant instead of the head u will be better off. more light
