Hi,
Been looking on the forum a while and may actually have a flat (not a house share) in the next few months with the GF.
Would love to do a hydro set up in a grow tent but due to the likely size of the flat and the fact its rented I think starting off with a stealth cupboard with auto flowering strains would be more sensible (some great grows to get inspiration from on here!)
My idea is this cupboard (110cm x 60cm x 42.4cm) (http://www.homebase.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=20001&partNumber=6091501&Trail=searchtext%3ECUPBOARD) with 4-6 auto flowering fem seeds planted in 5-8L pots (depending what fit).
For Ventilation 3 PC fans (1 in, 2 out) in the back so when the cupboard is in a corner they cannot be seen. The fans will be covered with a cooker carbon hood sheeting (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160305553568&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT) for the smell.
Just wanted to know if this would be a good starter set up? Since they are small strains should I try and get a RUCK fan with carbon filter (http://www.greenshorticulture.co.uk/Growroom-Products-20/-In-Line-Fans-Fan-Filter-Deals-108/RUCK-Fan-Rhino-Pro-Filter-Packages-1241.asp) in the top of the cupboard (the fan would be inside, do they generate much heat?) or would the PC fans with sheeting above do enough? Really dont want a flat always smelling of weed so happy to pay the extra.
Thanks and great site by the way! :greet:
