how would this work out??

85cannabliss · Sep 3, 2007

i have an idea for a small grow under my stairs, and wanted an opinion on the idea. ill use envirolite, and 4 inch fan and filter. would the filter fit in either of these spaces??

the tallest side is 4 foot
the smalest is 18 inches &
and an area of 4 square feet.

so what do you think? i only want 4 plants so i dont think im gonna need a HPS for this small space, ill just cover everything with mylar

well idk man i know u can do vegitative under there but buding out a plant with 4 foot space take 1 foot off for the pot then take another 1 foot off for the lights so your left with 2 foot thats not alot of room man to bud a mature plant

yeah im gonna do a ScrOG, and top them after 2 or 3 nodes to, and if it gets too much lst coudnt do any harm also. my main concern for this is where to put my fan and filter.
id like to ask if some 1 could measure the length and (max) width of a 4" RVK fan and filter, then i could measuere what would be best for me.
ive seen micro grows done with envirolites using less than 2' height and they still got over an oz dry weight per plant, thats all im looking for. so any advice would be great.

well ive put a little more thought into this and andf came up with using a freezer similar to this one. how many PC fans would i need to have addaquite ventilation in there?

Here's this one too

They're both fairly cheap, but I think the last one is more suitable for you... Doesn't look sweet like that other black one, but w/e it's good.

cheers tonic ill be able to get 1 from a local electrical repairs store tho wont i??

toniC · Sep 9, 2007

Ya know I honestly couldn't tell you... it's worth a try though.

This electrical store, does it sell all types of electrical equipment?

85cannabliss · Sep 10, 2007

got it. i have the whole power box off a computer and ive stripped out everything but the fan. ive wired the fan to an old drill charger. and the box should fit some sort of filter inside. im going tomorrow for a carbon scrubber (for a cooker hood), and the light fittings and bulbs

ill keep you all updated.

Hey 85C,
LOL, this is great.

I have wanted to try this for years! I can't wait to see how it goes. I always figured all the aspects of the box were covered. Its stealth, insulated, light tight and its designed to have power running to it. Good luck, Ill be watchin this one.

85cannabliss · Sep 11, 2007
