Hi mokeforfun, thanks for checking out my cab. Sadly, I haven't done any work on the cabinet in a while. However, I have finished 2 grows in it successfully.
The cabinet has worked pretty well but I did have a couple of issues managing heat.
It was a good experience and I will continue to use it but I will be making some changes. I want the light to have it's own duct and I want it to pull fresh air from outside the cab. If I decide to vent the carbon filter to the outside of the cab, I will use that to bring fresh air into the cab. If I can figure out a way to do a DIY co2 generator, I'll just filter the air inside the cab on a closed loop. I would like to do co2 because it would make my heat issues less of a problem. I may be moving soon though and if I have room at the new place, I will turn the cab into a veg and clone cab and have a separate room for flowering.

Yeah dude that's cool. There are always modifications and changes to make in order to make it all better. I'm almost flowering a second grow and I am still periodically changing things and probably will until I quit growing. Even then I'll still probably be trying to figure out better ways.
You can do a search on you tube for homemade CO2 generators that are as simple as a two liter bottle, a solution, and an air tube.
One thing you may consider if stealthiness is an issue is adding a tool and supply storage space to your cabinet. Just a thought. I know I need one.
Merry late Christmas!

Sadly, no new updates. I've put my growing on hold until after I move. Problem is that it's taken more than 6 months to complete the purchase. I plan on picking up where I left off after I'm settled at the new place.
Thanks for checking in on me!
