Default small grow box step by step w/ pics
so i want to make a small low profile box to grow with in my closet, here are some pictures of the box so far, caulked corners, primed, painted inside. anyone have suggestions for ventilation? theres an attic right above my closet...

im thinking about going with some cfl's as i want to keep this grow as cheap as possible.

the dimensions of the box is approx. 18x18x18, once plants get bigger i could add on the top and make it a little taller.

Assemble yourself, cuts the cost, they generate no heat, perfect for box growing. The cieling can have led's, the walls can have led's, you can put some serious led power in there, and keep on adding later, and not worry about heat.

LEDs might work okay if you're growing oregano, but I have yet to see any crop worth anything that came from LEDs. If you're rich and can buy $10,000 worth of LEDs, okay, that might work alright, but value-for-dollar, nothing beats HPS for flowering. Not yet, anyway. I do have hopes for the future of LEDs, but they aren't ready for primetime yet, at least not for growing cannabis.
