Custom Fridge - Nug Machine

[fishdeth]

Hi all,
I built this grow box from an old expired fridge.
I am on my third run in it with Hydro, RDWC 10 gallon capacity.
GH Flora trio with Humbolts Secret "Golden Tree"
Mainlining 2, AK-47 and GoldLeaFuck.
Cab has a thermostatically controlled portable A/C unit attached.
Running a Phillips 315W CDM lamp for both veg and flower.
Supplemental UBV lamp.
Supplemental LED grow strips.
Supplemental (ghetto) CO2.
1st run 4 plants = 7.25 ounces.
2nd run 3 plants = 5.5 ounces, (pre A/C... root rot on 1 plant)
3rd run 2 plants, currently 26 days into flower

Dang it.... I've uploaded TONS of pics to many websites and I can't for the life of me figure out how to flip these friggin pictures upright.....
Anyhow, tilt head and enjoy !

Hi

If you are still having problems orientating your photos, you'll find detailed instructions in this tutorial:

Wow, very nice set up indeed. Very nice attention to detail.

Since the 1st 2 pics are sideways... turn your head the other way once.
Nobody actually noticed... and I actually didn't mention that this particular fridge had the freezer on top.
Notice that hump up "top" where the light is, that is the hump behind your crisper drawers where the compressor and other stuff used to be.
I wanted the freezer on the bottom for Res for top drip (1st run) then on to RDWC
I just bolted some large casters on top and flipped the dang thing over.
You can see in the pic where the pipe continues into the fan and into the DIY carbon filter.
GOOD fan too, been running well over a year... use it in the drying process as well.

Here's the heart of the climate control system.
10,000 BTU Portable A/C unit.
One inlet in the freezer area and one in the grow area.
It is powered from a thermostatically controlled outlet inside the fridge.
80*F in the grow room keeps the soup at 70*F
Runs about 5 mins every 15 - 20 mins with the lights on.

....... yea... ya got to turn your head to the left... again... sheesh.

All my pics are upright on my puter.
When I upload it, the thumb is sideways and when I click it before publishing it, it opens upright.
But after it was "successfully processed" it opens/posts sideways.
I have posted them on MANY websites with no problems (pain in my neck).
This website, and it's upload process are a BIT weird... whatever, ain't got time to screw with it.
Enjoy !

nice fridge, I guess they are not just for beer anymore...lol

I made on out of a computer a while back, used a server case, so was about 36 inch tall...

Happy growing...

Awesome idea with the refrigerator. Desperately need a Veg area. This may just be perfect. All I need is room for 2 plants. Right on, thanks for the idea

And if your using an iPhone to take pics hold it in the landscape mode with the volume control buttons facing down, cures that problem.

Thanks !
Glad to have ya aboard.
Got a little more than 2 weeks to go!

About the pics... ALL the pics I use are upright on my computer.
I upload to 6 other weedsites an NEVER have a problem.
Splain that someone... anyone...?
