Hey guys, new to the forum and new to LED's but not new to growing. I had to take a little hiatus but I'm back to growing and decided to run with new lighting due to cabinet conditions. I'm from southern US where it is HOT down here and my grow is not in an air conditioned space, plus I needed it to be somewhat stealth.
I started with a couple sticks of 2x4's and sheets of OSB for the cabinet. The framing went up, then walls went in. Inside dimensions are 23x24x57", I used panda plastic for the lining. After trimming a Botanicare tray, it fit perfectly on a shelf above a 14 gallon tote that will be used for the reservoir. Next I ordered my COBs, (4) CXA 3070s with AD binning and went with cheap Chinese drivers @ 1500ma to try out. This will be a flower only cab, I have another small cab set up for mother/vegging. I also built my own 25lb activated carbon filter that is fed by a 6" inline fan for ventilation.
