what are your temps and humidity like though? seems like a lot of cfl in a small space without a whole lot of air circ...

in any event, 'will be watching this one.

I have an exhaust fan on the top, and a fan outside blowing in thru a vent. The temp is staying prolly about 75F or so. No idea on the humidity, but there's no fog or condendsation or anything.

The hdryo setup is like a play on DWC but its not as deep as they typically are. More like..shallow water culture. I'm not sure if im gonna have to do any root trimming or anything..can anyone help me out on that?

This is my first time and i decided to try hydro instead of soil just for shits and giggles.
 
I think this set up is great. I apologize if i'm repeating questions from b4 but if you could help me replicate this that would be great....beginning questions....what are the demensions of the cabinet and where did you purchase it (im having a little trouble locating an similar plastic cab. Also how did you employ/setup the aeration with the tubing pump and air stones....when you get a chance i'd really appreciate it
