I had to abort my 18 plants. I will be moving soon, and using this box instead of my old set up. This is the first one that I have made. I used particle board, the dimensions are 4'x2'x4'. Lamp circuit was wired using plastic bulb sockets, 14g wire, and blue terminals. I have covered every terminal with liquid electrical tape. Inline fan was wired using 3 prong extension cord, covered with wire nuts, secured to fan with a complete covering of electrical tape. Then covered again with aluminum colored duct tape. All cords have also been covered with aluminum colored duck tape for blending purposes. I have also made vent covers out of the left over reflective lining.
Features
-6" inline fan
-two vents
-insulated reflective walls
-10 bulb cfl lamp and hood
-All 100 watt equivalent
-8 (6500k) (1610 lumens) Cfls
-2 (2700k) (1640 lumens) Cfls
-Total 1000 watts
-Total 16160 lumens

My next project will be implementing a hydroponic system that holds 8 plants, and of course fits inside my box.
