Im actually going to be finishing up my cabinet and im wondering the same thing actually. Not too badly priced compared to mylar and the bubble looking stuff..

So as of right now, i had 8 reggies seeds, only one had a healthy start and sprout all the other ones never did come up and after moving some soil noticed that the seeds had small taproot but they were like that when i planted them. So now ive got one healthy one. Ive got the heater in the...

That should work pretty well, just make sure you get a fan powerful enough to draw the air out of your cabinet. Just get your fan and get PVC that is the same size, and connect it up. Should work fine. Just keep reading and researching. Youll be fine!

I dont have an exhaust fan yet, i did order it on friday, but have 8 germd seeds, one above soil right now i just have a little heater inside of the cabinet with the thermostat set at 75 degrees. It honestly only runs when the lights are off, and when the lights are on it never goes above 80...

Even Low stress training the plant, its still going to get pretty tall. As for a bilge blower, they are mainly rated for water removal. I was checking on amazon and they have some 125 cfm inline 4" fans for around 50-70 bucks, not too bad, some even have 2 speeds. As for the carbon filter, check...

I am guessing you will need to make one with a Jig Saw. Mark out your 16.25" diameter and cut it out.. I am actually mulling over building this reflector as well. However im thinking about making a 20 light, 4ft long one..

You want to start out with the 6500K, that will give you better growth, although if you use one 6500 and one 2700 youll be even better off. A 150W HPS is probably going to be a bit much heat with the small size of the dresser. You would probably need to look into more airflow if going that...

What i actually have for the "inlet" is a regular house vent register, like what is in the floor. and the tube comes out the front of the cab instead of just out from the side. Ill get a pic later, however all i was going to do was make a little box with a filter and put that inline fan in...

Also to add to that, 3' really isnt much room, even a medium height plant with a 1.5 gallon pot will be roughly 3' high therefore growing into your light. By the time your plant is fully grown it will probably be pretty crowded in there with your pot height and the full plant. if you were to do...

Cfls best light output is from the side of the bulb rather then the top how you have it in that picture. Also because its an autoflower, you should still use the 6500K rated bulbs until it does start to flower. or use one of each or 2 of each etc. You still have to vegetate the plants although...

as ive recently found out, you want a negative pressure inside, youll only need one fan, 70cfm would be plenty for your application, and all you would need is a hole, with maybe some screen or filter material taped or stapled to one side, with your carbon filter and fan sucking the air out on...

So in other words i would be fine just leaving the inlet open or filtered, and JUST running the 165-200 cfm for the exhaust through the carbon filters?

Thank you OH64, Now i understand where you are coming from. I will just put a filter on the intake and maybe put a small oscillating fan inside. Thank you mutt as well for all your help and info! Havent been here too long and i can already see this is the best place to be. So many great...

CFM is cubic feet per minute, If you get a 200 cfm fan, that will exchange 200 cubic feet per minute, therefore yours would remove the air QUITE quickly in a 3 cubic foot area. Sucking air through a carbon filter you will lose some CFM however im not sure how much. You could have a small vent...

Look up nick88 hes got some killer buds off of a t5 with cfls for side lighting. Thats the setup im going with in my cabinet. Good luck on your grow journeys.
