Hi, fellow growers…

As the title suggests I am building a grow cabinet and I 'd love it if you could share your wisdom.

The dimensions are 2x2 feet and 6 feet height.

I will be growing two plants max at a time. So what should
I be looking for in terms of :

  1. Extraction fan
  2. Carbon filter
  3. Led lights

Thanks in advance.

LEDS are not my thing… but filter and extraction fan given the small space and only 2 plants a decent 4 inch inline fan and extraction kit should do you

200 true watts would be perfect. True watts meaning actual power draw, so for a LED you’d want something like a 400W equivalent, but all manufacturers I’ve seen will list actual power draw in their specs.

As far as exhaust is concerned you don’t need much with the cubic footage you have so I would get a 4inch inline fan and a small carbon filter
Fan should have speed controller and go with something like a 100cfm range that would exchange air 4 times a min in you set up which is why you’ll need a fan control to slow it down a bit
Happy growing :hugs::cowboy_hat_face:CB
