Here are some pics of a DIY cabinet. It is 72"h x 36"w x 24"d. Used some reflective insulation from HD.
The lights are 85w 6500k. Not too big. Just right. They are practically giving CFL's away on Amazon.
4 85w 6500k for $40. I got 12 total. Not all in the cabinet at once tho. Some 4 way sockets from a lamp store online. I have more lumens than any light manufactured. There is some heat i might add. Tried to duct a fan but really not enough room. Got pissed and hacked a $20 wally-world box fan in. No heat issues now. Umm standard rubbermaid containers and a sprayer manifold nozzle thingy. The Rez is a clear sterilite 19 gal. I only use about 13 Gal. The pump is a HF 3000 gph sump pump w/ float. I also use a mesh filter. I hate clogged nozzles.
The waterfall in the pic is my timer. i can adjust how fast the water fills up the rez triggering the pump. I am at 1min on and 3 off. Perfect. Only use DM one. DM Grow was fishy. I feel like im rambling anyway. Yeah i flower in soil. Put em in the dirt and forget about it. Ok any questions i will answer.
