Yup, my cabinet grow uses a suspended steel grate hanging from tie down straps lol. Found these little plant caddies at walmart for $3.46 in the garden center, they're 10", same as the 3gallons so figured they'd be perfect for it :)

Yes I've seen them I don't grow in big pots just 140 mm which I get free from work perks of working in a nursery I look after one for my job .

Finally! Today is my birthday, and amazon and usps must have known because i got 3 packages in today. Got both packages of seeds and my new fan/filter setup and got it hooked up and the plants moved over into the tent under the new light.

Thanks guys! I'm so glad to have it all in finally and set up and no more waiting on customs or reordering stuff that didnt come or out of stock... Ugh. The headache is over with.. Now can relax and just grow :)
The secret prize seeds I got, they wouldn't reveal at all so getting them was a surprise for me as to what it would be. It is 2 Feminized Bubba Slush (Bubba Kush x Gelato) (in pic on left)

I am super puzzled as to why they gave me a speed controller for this fan when it sounds like a dying cat at anything less than max... Hmm.

What brand? If you can open it up and give the bearing area a little silicone spray it should quiet any squeaking

iPower 4" 190cfm with speed controller, filter, 8' flex vent, 2 rope hangers kit from amazon.
It sounds more like low voltage stress like motor trying too hard to turn, not healthy, and not bearing squeel.

Runs fine in high but as soon as i lower speedcontroller to medium or less the fan has progressively higher pitch electrical hum.

Hmm some ax motors don't do well with power cut back. I have heard what not a squeal like a bearing but like a plastic on plastic squeak kinda vibration usually right around the bearing housings. Usually from poorly trimmed or cast pieces.

Yeah I'm just going to run it on high and use the controller as a simple on/off instead.
