A quick question reguarding cardboard in a grow

There's a stealth grow sub-forum.

Those fags can probably help you out. Or you could check out what they're doing. For some reason cardboard sounds like a bad idea to me, but I've seen people build reflectors with them, so, idk, I don't have any experience with it either.

my question is has any1 run into trouble with the cardboard igniting with cfl bulbs? i do plan on having 2 65w 6500k, and a 23w 2700k bulb on during veg. to give it a a bit of dual spectrum. i do have 2 intake fans, and 1 exhaust fan wired up for inside, and could always do the cup of ice trick in front of the fans.

any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I believe he has been using the same box for around 2 years now

Its fine, keep the lights from touching the cardboard and make sure your ventilation is good and you shouldn't run into any problems but a wooden box would be farr better
