Hey guys, hope you all are feeling good like me. Nothing like enjoying your own smoke, especially while Aqualung is on in the background :P After my first harvest ever, I'm eager to try new things, and hopefully get a harvest cycle going. The only problem is that I've only got 1 closet to work with. After much surfing for cfl and Rubbermaid setups, I decided I was going to built a CFL Rubbermaid box. It was much easier than I thought it would be, even with the electrical work, which is why I was hesitant to make a box (don't want to burn the place down while I'm at work.) I have 12 clones that I plan on Vegging until my current plants in the flowering closet are done. Here's a list of materials:

2 x 100L Rubbermaid bins w/ hinges
1 x bathroom vanity light (3 sockets)
1 x 3 Meter length of wire
1 x Heavy duty plug w/ ground
3 x T light socket splitters
6 x 13W Daylight spectrum CFL bulbs
2 x 120mm computer fans
1 x AC/DC converter w/ voltage adjuster
3 feet Visqueen plastic

With the limited space that I'm dealing with I've been looking into the Topping technique, it seems to give the best yield while taking up less space than just letting them grow like last time around.

As for the strains, all clones are White Widow and Master Kush. Since I was lazy and indiscriminently chopped from both plants without labelling the cutlings, its gonna be a few weeks before I'll be able to tell whats what.

Tips/hints are most welcome!

Don't forget kids : Ash says, Smoke That Shit!

i have similar setup except im only using 1 bin and I have a mixture of 23w and 14w a total of 125W of daylights. About 8 inches away from light. and i have 8 LA Cons and 1 Diablo OG in 6 inch pots. Growing really nicely... nodes nice and tight... I would def. increase lighting maybe getting 6 23w. and move closer to plants... GL!

Hey thanks for the advice. I'm definitely going to get them closer to the lights, gotta love the easy fixes ;P I agree with you on upping the wattage too, though since I'm using is for vegging only, I was gonna see how they grew for a while first... monitor node length and then see about getting bigger bulbs.

np, i mean they will still grow just not as fast... GL

dude, throw another rubber made at the bottom of that and create a kick ass hydro system... my 2 cents

thats pretty tight yo

Lookin great!!!

I was planning on doing a rubbermaid for my very first
indoor grow.

Where did you buy your socket splitters?
I didn't know the exact name of them when I went to
try and find some so I didn't have much luck...

The Home Depot people had no idea what I was talking about.

and how much were they each?
and also, where did you get your AC/DC charger thing?
