that box looks amazing. Does that light have the ballast with it. Looks like the ones ive seen that arent remote. Possibly 250w? What are your plans with that plant, is it a female, why dont you have more all those lumens waiting to be soaked up with some more beautiful folliage. That looks amazing id just like to see more green haha. But maybe youll enlighten us. GOod luck

I started the LST method yesterday so I'm going to try to fill the cab. I was also thinking of doing a scrog. I thought about cloning but I have no Idea how to do it. This is only my first grow so maybe I'll try cloning next.
Specs
I used .5'' MDF for the cabinet. I will post dimensions soon, along with a a Google sketch up file of the cabiinet.
Intake and Exhaust
-----------------------------
160 cfm squirl cage fan that I got of eBay. You can buy the same model off grainger.com.
For my intake I used a darkroom light trap from Adorama.com.
Lighting
-----------------------------
My light is a 250 watt HPS with the ballast is built in. Its uses a superargo bulb from BGHydro.com.
I started my plant with 4x26watt 6500 k cfls.
DWC & Misc
-----------------------------
My bucket is a one gallon plastic jar from wal-mart. I painted it black and wrapped it to keep the light out. I can't remember who makes my pumps but they are dual outlet. I also Have three gallon buckets that I will use next grow.
Nutrients
-----------------------------
I am using GH Mico and GH bloom. I also use hydroguard and a Cal mag supplement. I am following the Lucas formula + the cal mag. I keep my ph between 5.6 - 6.2
Any thing else?

Next time you should work with more plants...from what it sounds like thats your only one and you dont know if its male or female. If this is the case it could be some disappointment when you throw it into flower. You could end up with a male. More plants raise the likelyhood of getting a good female. Looks great i would hate for nothing to come out of it. What strain is that? I was unclear as too where your plants from. If its a clone than you have your female. It looks so clean and efficient i want to see you get as much as you can.

Fantastic lookin cab. man! Does that built-in ballast cause any heat issues? What are your temps at?

Steve_Green - I'm not sure what strain. Could be NL BB or NL Blue mystic. More than likely its the freebie that NL included with my order.
floppyfundanglr - I know I should work worth more plants. I had bad germination which explains the single plant. If it's a male it will suck but not all will be lost. I have learned quite a bit so far. Also my plants were started from seed.
Rolling_Stoned - No heat issue. My temps can get as high as 90 but that rarely happens. I do most of the veg with cfls.
