Great start, I recommend you also look into gnat-nix or like products, or perhaps some sand. Also, what is your intake-air situation? I assume you are going to close that box up while it is running, make sure you have some intake air thats not going to bring light in.

also, I recommend finding some drainage tray.. I personally use a water heater pan and have it draining down into a condensate pump and out of my tent during watering. If you just have the pots sitting on the floor in there, you are going to have water everywhere.
 
Yes I plan on makeing something that tilts so I can check the ph of the run off or be just but a tray :) and for I make was I going to make a vent or make holes with screens in not sure but something that looks nice I was even thinking making a hole of the floor of the room cause the room is on wheels So cool air could come in from the bottom and thank you much for your reply :) and the sand thing yes I've seen that but I'm not sure what type of sand... Heard a guy say it helped mkeep bugs & gnatnix? I'll google it right now.. And ive been reading and looking for similar grows but no luck yet.. Thanks again
 
dryer vents work great ;) they only open when air is being drawn in and you can make it looks super classy
 
Still need to get the sand but I got my ph meter in yesterday :) this week. Maybe Friday I will germinate a bean and just start with one I dont remember the strain. Im at work right now but When I get home I'll take a pic.. It was givin to me he got it for free but he dosnt want to bother with autos but I do :) oh still need to get some air intake I'm there and a fan..... Theres always more lol
