DIY drying box

Post by Point 5 »

Hello growroom.

So one evening I'm looking through forum and I find this https://growroom420.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=4985

It got me thinking with all the replys so this weekend hmr81 and I decided we had a project to do and heres what we have come up with.

First off we got a box
Image
Added a pc fan and carbon filter to the side of the box after a hole was cut
Image
Image
Cut some netting to size and made bud hammocks with plant canes.
Image
Drilled some holes in the sides of the box to place the shelves
Image
As you can see starting to take shape
Image
Next the box was blacked out and the lid attached as a door. Some holes drilled into the bottom sides to allow air flow and here we are. DIY dryer box. This could easy be scaled up
Image
Image
Image

To make the fan work we used a 12v cig lighter socket and plug that into a battery pack (plugs into mains)

Going see how this little bit gets on in there and report back

Thanks for reading :Stoned:

I'm going to do a small review on some fans that I run I in my mini cab that would be great for this. And they plug right into regular usb port. Run off cell phone charger right from the wall if you want.

This in prototype phase. I got idea from a google search. Guy used a house moving box that can hang clothes in.

I keep thinking small as I have no idea what we will get off this first plant πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…

I absolutely love this with all my heart guys, just make sure it doesn't dry the flower out to quick maybe you could look at a dimmer for the fan if that were the case but my word great job guys, I'll see you in the den shortly i imagine lol

Great project,
