I bet this set up would work with a 250w hps or <. doesn't get ANY hotter than 6 42w CFL's, if anything it would be cooler.

And unfortunately just because the plants are growing in rubbermaid bins, doesn't mean the laws of growing weed change,

VEG-5000k-7000k

FLWR-2500k-4000k

no matter what

Do you have any blockage of the air flow? Like a pot sitting right in front or some screen or filtering set-up that is keeping it from getting in the box and/or any other reason the air can't get out of the box? Maybe decrease the number of lights... I know that the 42w and 65w lights produce ridiculous amounts of heat, even for cfls. Hope it helps

Alright First things first. THE CREATOR OF THIS IS A FUCKING LEGEND AND I LOVE YOU. I will be making one of these and just wanted some verification on what im going to do. ( Coz its always nice for someone to say yeh thats good). SO i will only be growing 2-3 plants. So i will be using 2/3 of these.

And i will be using one 125w Envirlite. But i am going to drill a hole at the top. SO the ballast isint inside and the heat will be reduced this way. ( However it will hang vertically but oh well. THe whole of the inside will be covered with blanket and i will have intake on the bottom yes? and outtake on the top near my bulb. FOr the start i will raise the pots then lower them as they grow. Another thing peace to u for being such a fucking g.

You should check out my grow and look at what im doing in the same kind of setup but with 3 plants, next grow will probably only be 2 plants in it tho, click the link in my signiture, I recommend doing a scrog in a box like this

we got it at homedepot heres the link
Inductor 4 In. In-line Duct Fan - DB204 at The Home Depot

i cant find that flexible exhaust piping on the website that you see in the pics but thats where we got it. all we used to cut the holes was an exacto knife.
and yea for the intake its just a hole, and it works because that exhaust fan pulls the air out of the box making a suction affect. you gettin me?
get back, w o w
ive been looking for that

nice thanks
