So what do ya think? Hello all...

So after alot of reading and alot of help from great DIY threads.... here is my cabinet.

Included:

250 watt digital ballast (MH for veg and HPS for flowering)
140 cfm squirrel cage exhaust fan
three 2.5" intake vents
Aquarium air pump
two 3" bubble stones
6" fan oscillating fan
350L/H submersible pump for drip
24" x 16" x 8.5" rubbermaid bubble box for six 3"pots (only going to use 4)
cabinet is 32"W x 26"D x 48"H

I have seeds en-rout from Gypsy's Nirvana (white widow, white rhino, Arjan haze #1 & #3, A.M.S.)
AN iguana juice Grow/Bloom
AN tarantula, pirana, bud blood and big bud
1" rockwool cubes for seedlings
Hydroton rocks
TDS meter
PH kit
Humidity dome for seedlings with cfl lighting

This is my first indoor grow so im trying to be well prepared for whats in store.... Am I missing anything? Any Advice/Tips before i Germinate? Oh ya.... once my roots reach the reservoir, can i do away with the drip? is the drip even needed at all? Any and all feedback appreciated.....

P.s> I just fired her up for the 1st time and temps are around 78 degrees 8" from the 250W MH...76 degrees 6" off bubble box....perfect. Temp at night is hovering between 69 and 72.

Thanks...I have done plenty of research and put a lot of thought into this cabinet. When I start to flower (or sooner if needed) I will attach a carbon filter built from a DIY thread i seen......if that doesn't do it then i will run a vent from the exhaust fan through the ceiling and tie it into the bathroom exhaust fan.... we will see...or should i say smell....:bigjoint:
Just waiting for seeds to show up and then the true test will begin.

BTW after reading the post (https://www.rollitup.org/dwc-bubbleponics/255664-putting-bubbles-your-ponics.html) I am undecided....feeder tubes or no feeder tubes...

So i have been running this cabinet for the past cppl hours and temps seem a little high. go figure...temps were awesome the other night.

I Have the exhaust running 130 cfm i think(maybe 140) and a 6" circulation fan running inside the cab. just off the bubble box its 80.3 have another sensor hanging and its reading 84. circ fan is pointed at the bubblebox...

I already have three 2.5" intake holes, should i drill a fourth? will this bring temps back down to mid-high 70's? or am i going to have to get a vented reflector?

**If you are ever looking for a reason to smoke.... put 3 thermometers in the same spot and try to get an accurate temp
