AussieBlue's Perpetual Grow Journal: Next Generation

Retro Growtron ripoff rom the 80's. Lol. Mines the CandyTron 2000. Massive 89 watts of Fluro power. Will actually do very well for one mother plant i expect.

Time to modify the cupboard a little. Pulled out the ballasts and they are under the house. Just got to route some power to them and the cords from the lights need to go through the floor too. Then i will work on setting up this new exhaust fan and ducting.
 
Extra holes drilled. Mounted the new matching lower profile reflector on the left. Ran the light cables down some ducting to keep things neat. Now another trip under the house to hook the lights up to the ballasts. Then onto mounting the fan.

Man I wish I was handy with tools and such, I'd build myself one hell of a grow room. Being able to custom build and modify everything to exactly how you want it must be a fantastic feeling.
 
Hoping a bit of door seal foam will absorb a bit of vibration. And a masking tape gasket so the filter just pushes on tight. Some rubber washes on the screws to mount.

Man there is some air coming out the bottom now. Lets hope my effort gets my temps down. Its cool now. (Weather) Will run the lights with the cupboard sealed and monitor the temp. Still want to put a couple of 2" inlets in the floor too. Another day.

Its handy being handy. Id suggest giving it a go. Might surprise yourself. Only way to learn...
 
Candy has had a week of flushing and will get the chop tomorrow. Should be about dry by the time i get back from my trip. Decided not to pot anything else up in hempys till i come back home with some big bags of coarse perlite. Not wasting money on these little bags no more. Said the raven, "nevermore".
