Thanks to both of you! :) I have to tell you that I dont really work too hard at this. It is kind of a side hobby since I need it anyway and have a tendency to prefer the DIY route with things. If I decide to document the next round it will be my last one... I feel the need to take a break from the documentation etc..

Hopefully what I end up leaving here will help some others make it work for them. :)

how do you keep your temps so low? sheer size of the cabinet? or amazing exhaust fans? please do tell!!

It is a 6" 350 or so cfm fan pushing through a big can filter... so the exhaust helps. Also the cabinets are close to a cracked open window which helps too. Summer time is way more difficult to grow. I usually just shut down the hps cabinet for summer.

Hey SG

Havent been by in a while and MAN that is some crazy shit. Just too cool...Sounds like a good idea to try vertical. I think it would work well in your setup.

Very NICE!!!!

Hey bud, I been thinking about doing a hempy drain to waste similar to yours on the bottom of my cab. Thing is I dont have much space and I got some seven inch square pots I was thinkin of using. Do you think they would be to small to grow a two foot plant in a screen?
I think it will work.

I think so too. I will post some pics later today since I am home sick. I am working on a 45gl rubbermaid flowering tub... Thing is simple but awesome. I guess I am of the opinion that flowering is possible in almost any space. The screen helps control height so if you are diligent in your tying down you should have no problems.

I want to see it when you get it going! :)

Here is my 45gl roughneck Rubbermaid bin I am building. It has room for 3 3gl containers all fed from a drip. Waste goes to the bottom of the Rubbermaid. The Rubbermaid is lined with aluminum tape and the bottom is lined with contractor trash bags.

I still need to put a small access hatch in the back for working under the screen and still need intake and exhaust but it is almost there.

The idea was to have an easy down and dirty way to grow. In the future I will be building a metal cabinet set up for vertical 3/4 around scrog. But this hit me as a great way to have a few side projects going without much space requirement.

The lighting is still not done either. Those are 6 cool and I still have to add 4 warm for a total of 260w.

Update!

I chopped the God Bud today. The two Sour Berry will probably come down tomorrow or later tonight some time. It was 82g wet of some VERY sticky bud. I was washing my hands with dish soap and it wouldn't come off. I ended up having to use iso alcohol to clean myself up. I also got a bunch of very white trim for canna butter in a few weeks. :) The scissor hash was bubbly. Anyway.. here are some pics.

The god bud was a small plant compared to the other two as you can see. I feel like if I get the next round of gb very big the yield will increase by quite a bit.

The sour berrie's colas are leaning in too :)

YUP.. I am planning on 1 month veg into the screen with the God Bud.... They are already alot bigger than when I first put this current 3 in, so I expect good things. :)

Yes, case fans with some replaceable carbon filter material. simple and cheep and effective was my goal.

Thanks for sticking around. :)

Just done. :)

Here is the skinny:

God-Bud Plant = 82g wet
Sour Berry #1 =392g wet (all the pictures in this post are of this one)
Sour Berry #2 =450g wet

Total Wet Weight = 924g

25% of that is about 231g or about 8.25ounces... I usually lose no more than 70-75% of the weight from past experience... so that's probably a good rough estimate. I am pretty stoked. :)

PIcs of SB#1: (will get dry shots in a week.)
