Default DIY 4oz. minimum yield grow box

me and my buddy built this box starting off with 2 rubbermaid tubs

1. fasten the light fixture on the top tub, either by screwing fixture to top or by cutting out 4 holes in the tub so your lights can poke through and leaving the entire fixture outside on top of the box.
2.cut an intake hole and install a duct facing downward. then cut an exhaust hole, install a computer type fan in duct then we stuffed the rest of the duct with carbon air filter so it filtered the exiting air.
3. line entire inside of the top and bottom with mylar, we used a combo of mylar we had and emrgency blankets bought at wally world for 1.99. there also mylar.
4.then we bought 6 pots, well actually small trash cans and cut holes in the bottom for airation and water exit.
5. we put telephone books and boxes underneath the pots to raise them up to lights. when you have no more option for growth you have to build a spacer, i did this by buying another rubbermaid tub and cutting the bottom off it making it a nice spacer. then we tapped that to thetop of the bottom tub raising the height about bouble. worked great

any questions get back...
we pulled about 5 ounces of c-99 out of this little box

light fixture used in box( i also used it in a closet grow i did as seen in this picture)

If those cfls were all you used this would be my first sighting of something actually looking good from the little cfls nice job.The emergency blankets arent mylar they actually are designed to allow heat to pass through 1 way then hold it so they are reflective heat holding items so they keep heat in not sure if heat was an issue but they would contribute.Quick question all the pictures are taged Daves aerogarden which grow medium did you use soil or aero?? Also the 5 oz was that the dried and cured weight or the fresh harvest weight.Looks good

yea man just cfl... six 150 watt equiv. 2700 lumen cfl's.
wow thats crazy the blankets look and feel like mylar. but they worked great, and for a cheapo set-up like this there perfect.
we actually harvested these main colas first.

then we harvested the rest this 2 friday's ago.

it was dried weight. not wet. and i did an aerogarden grow, but this is soil. we started both grows in october. i just happened to have my camera with me a couple times i went over there and shit the pics and just put them in my grow journal instead of startin a new thread.
peace FF

well we weighed it and it was at right around 4 ounces but we smoked prob. a quarter while it was drying. we smoked the little light buds that dried out quik. so it wasnt 5 ounces but that was the first grow with the box so i know we could do better next grow. theres actually one size bigger tubs i found that you could probably get 8 plants in.
