Closet Growing 3 by 3

Hello all!

Here I am attempting the norm and concealing a grown in a confined space. I thought it would be wise to lay out my space in paint, take a few photos and get some input. It is going to be a slow build (it is my first hydro) but if your not paranoid then you shouldn't grow! lol

Closet MS Paint style



Closet With half door





Closet floor



Going with a pond liner to assist with leaks. Not sure of what the style or name of the system a buddy is hooking me up. He told me if i build the room then he will come.. LOL

Will give more info when the rest of the wood is up on the walls and the list of times are installed that i have been requested to install.

I am by no means an experienced grower but with the assist of the great growers here..... it would rock to have a greater knowledge of the art!!!


There will be more to come!

Hopes and shattered dreams

OK, so i thought i was going to be able to use hidden hinges and make this the james bond of grows! WRONG! I am beatting myself up for not seeing the obvious, but then again when you have just smoked a fatty then thoughts might be clouded. :rasta:

I will update pics of my failures at hinges adn my success using lags and maybe even a blow tourch!

:mad:

:fsu:

Good the bad and the DAMN!

Good the bad and the DAMN!

Alright here it is my grow closet..... I am trying to keep this post light hearted as best i can to keep the good vibes a rockin!

The room is not a 3x3 like the post says it is a 38+\- length by 24+\- width.

You might be asking why the +\- well the house is built really odd and dimensions are anyones guess! seems to have been a drunk carpenter or a guy with one hell of a bucket of drywall mud attacked this house!
:laughing:

At first I thought I would be james bond and make a closet that had hidden hinges and all sorts of stealthy stuff.... well the system that i was getting came available a bit early and who could say no. (Actually i faught with the hinges for a day and said piss on it and i got hooks and a piece of wood!) :muahaha: Maybe in the future I can do something from Golden Eye or Casino Royale, but for today i am using what is needed and it seems to work. :jump:

Ok ....... now is the point in this section were i pay a little respect to the knowledge of a friend... confederate69 helped me with with the hundreds of questions and is a great wealth of knowledge, as humble as he is, it is had to give him a complament without him shrugging it off! TY bro for the assist! you rock!
:dance: :smoweed:


Now this is what i got

top to bottom - the closet that is

Exhaust fan into the attic, got an ion-iser in it(cool stuff) Ducted to light
Carbon filter - 6" Ducted to light
600Watt HPS
SOG - BlueBerry\Train Wreck\Bubble Gum
15 Gallon Res
Couple of timers

Checking in here GeForce, looking great! Con told me that you got his old system. BTW, I taught him how to ebb and flow in it. He knows how to keep that system humming, so listen up! Glad you guys got the build mostly done today. Enjoy! I will be checking in!

With a name like GeForce grower, you must be a geek ;) I bet you are a GeForce card user as well ;)

Roots and intake

Roots and intake

Hippie - I got a 10x4 (3 way ) register in the bottom of the closet, into a couple of 90 degree bends to a high flow pc fan from a server chasis. I got a pic for ya of the outside, will take a pic tomm in the daylight to show construction.

I know you can see the light, i was TOLD that i should paint it then use a black shirt to keep it noob style of closet grower style, but in my haste to just get the heat down i just installed it and tested for the heat drop. Running 89-90 now ans not 95... dont like it but with a few more suggested mods ... i will get it...






I also wanted to show the rooting of the plants... been three days and i think that they are doing relly good!











I hope you all like the simple grow and will stick around for the rest of it...


:joint: :joint: :joint: :biglaugh:

ROOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ROOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ok, its my first hydro and i am looking at these plants and im like "are they doing anything" and "is that supposed to look like that"
:violin:

Ok ok ok ... I should just shut up and post some pics of some really narly bud that grew like it was next to a radioactive dump site! Well, since i am a noob, the roots look straight up just like it came from a sci fi film, think i even seen one wave at me when i watered em! :jump:
:laughing:



Ok you might see that there is a loner in this pic in some dirt. Well a buddy of mine, YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE, gave me this little baby and i left here in a box with a cfl and not much loving. thought that it might be alright to stick her in here for a few days and see what hapens, this one is about a month older then the others but was on 24/0 the whole time on 100W cfl.... i know it is abuse but i think i will make her happy again and let her stretch her arms a wave to the heavens... ok enough long winded... look at the pics and let me know what you think!
