The Mill's Pride Club

[sumo]

I've been growing Nirvana Indoor mix the last three grows. This is a mix consisting of Master Kush, Afghan,Pure power plant,skunk #1, and Nirvana special. So what is that, Two seeds of each? I used to grow all one strain all Nirvana. Started with NL, then tried ak48,ice,B52,white rhino- all the top rated ones on OG strain guide. From seed there is always alot of variation. I Just like the pot-luck (ha ha)of a mix and saves me the trouble of keeping track of each plant. I also throw in some freebies,seeds friends give me ,and my own hermie begotten seeds. Don't keep track of any of them. If I ever find the oh my god plant maybe I will reveg and make clones but that would mean building another cab for clones and moms and I don't want to expand at all. So seeds it is. And since Nirvana seeds just went up maybe I will be shopping around for something different.

man this thread is full of good info!! i just got a c24 what size light would you do for your first run?

 

[GrowerGoneWild]

I never had the chance to get an actual mills pride cabinet, but looking at the dimentions, I think this one is very similar to the C-13

Anyways here she is:

HPS/MH Cooltube, Computer Controlled Aeroponics, Verti SCROG (I'll put the screen in when I get some veggies in there.

^^^ That's badass. Not sure if I've seen a vertical scrog in a cabinet before. That sounds like fun to watch.

I think I've got my design nailed down. Before I start cutting holes I used ms paint to see how it will look.
The thing that i'm not positive about is the carbon scrubber and having the air being pushed through it, instead of sucking? It will be somewhat oversized.
I believe the pressure will be spot on.

Everything stealthy and inside the cab except for one power cord out back.
The upper and lower shelves will be sealed and air tight when doors are closed to aid vents.
The red tube in the corner is just PVC for electrical cords.

Does everything add up, look ok?

Scrog, Bubbleponic DWC, Stanley blower and a 430w light system.

36"W
20"D
80"H

nice setup GGW!

 

[Sleestak420]

Nice design man! Do you really need the holes on in the floor/bottom if you have vents in the back? You could maybe save yourself some hassle..

Thanks kuskus, I thought this thread had died..
I dont know yet. I figure they will help keep the res cool.
I will experiment with just the 2 vents mounted on the back and go from there.

what are your guys' res temps in your cabs? i have had problems in the past with high res temps and what is a good method to keep it cool. i have done the frozen water bottles b4 and that helps a lil bit. what do you guys do to keep the res temps down?

 

[icough2getoff]

Cut a couple holes in your lid and put a PC fan over one of the holes blowing in your res. It will drop the temp dramatically. The water will evaporate faster but to keep your res cool it's definitely worth it. Just use a 12V DC plug and wire connectors to wire up the fan.

a PC fan or two will do the trick.

 

[icough2getoff]

oh yeah and your other option would probably be an aquarium ice probe

 

[Mountain High]

Now why didnt i think of that... oh yeah, thats right.

Around 70F, its a bit high but its not that bad. my cool intake air exits near my res, keeps things a bit cooler I think.

Hello all!

Very nice cabs indeed! Great work from you all!

I'm an old og'er from a few years back... just been lurking here for a bit..

Started up a c13 style grow.. Purchased a cabinet for $90, its a bit smaller. I'll post more details of my grow later. peace all

 

[Pakalolovoodoo]

any one know of cabs other than mills pride wich are easily obatainable i would like to convert my gro to a cab but not sure whwere to start looking I have searched the web in vane for the last two nights

 

[icough2getoff]

I'd check your closest home depot. Mine stopped carrying mills pride a while ago and started carryng a nearly identical cab, brand name Do-able.

They have one that looks like a mix between the c13 and c22, as well as sizes close to the old mills pride cabs.

Yes, if you are in the USA visit lowes oddly I did not find it on their website..

"Simple Storage"
Part Number: 12138

There are a few things I dont like about this cabinet.

-The backing is very cheap and thin, its pretty much cardboard.
I spent alot of time gluing and putting silicone all over to keep
the airleaks out. I would have liked a solid back.

-The top cabinet shelf is thin, I put my ballasts there and its bending from the weight

- Light leaks everywhere, expect to spend some time trying to correct this.
