Thanks, didn't think they were pre-flowers, just couldn't tell what they were at first :P. Finally able to roll, now I just gotta figure out how to roll in RL :D
Dude, you don't know how to roll? That's preposterous. Next we are chilling somewhere I will teach you. Everyone should know how to roll a joint. It could save your life one day.

Hey man thanks for showin some luv! Yeah dude, so far I have absolutely no complaints on the aqua globes, I added some nutes before I filled them up. It might not be the most precise steady feed some would look for, but it's working so its good enough for me :)

Well it's the time you've all been waiting for. Get ready for a big update guys.

Yesterday gidget and I were browsing the local IKEA for a cabinet (Kullen) that could be suitable for our new plans to grow. We lucked out and found the best possible configuration for our needs. The dimensions are as follows: 75" Height, 56" Width, 20" Depth. The cabinet costs about $200 after tax.

Anyways time for some pics!

Some assembly required :S


The Cab all built:


The inside:


My lard:


New home (Ran out of mylar for the right side, more coming at end of week):


The reflector:


The reflection:


Aqua Globe Gang Bang:


Clones to live on the top shelf:


Supply storage:


Pride and Joy:


The large area to the right will be the flowering room, which will be outfitted with a 250w HPS.

Not much action considering all the people who appeared to be waiting on this update. Stellar looking cabinet guys. Loving it. Question about the mylar. I am wondering if it is even necessary. It looks to me like the inside of the cabinet is painted a nice matte white colour. Couldn't you guys just rely on the matte white of the cabinet for reflection?
That 250 is a fuckin beast. Hopefully it doesn't get too hot in the flower box with that monster inside. Looks like you guys have room for what maybe 4 flowering plants, 4 vegging plants and a small army of clones ready to take the place of the veggers.

Excited to see how that cab goes. I am in the design process of my flowering room. I am almost ready to sex a couple of the plants.

lol yeah, was expecting more traffic but I can expect people have plans over the weekend and what not. The cab is a great addition to the grow, glad we picked it up. As for the mylar, yes it's true we could have gotten away without it, however we had tons of it left over from the previous box and we figured we might as well take advantage of the flat surfaces inside. Besides, it looks cool. :D Thanks for stopping by, PS can't wait to bake some brownies MMM.

Looking good. Nothing like alcohol and electricity to get the juices flowin. Okay so here is my idea for keeping the flowering box cool. You're going to need some 4" ducting 1 or 2 pc fans and some sort of carbon scrubber equipped for the 4" duct. Mount the ducting at the top of the flowering cabinet and either cut an exhaust hole out of the top of the cabinet or continue the ducting through the cloning box to keep it good and heated and then vent it out the side.
