For my second grow, I decided to turn a wardrobe box into a custom grow-box. The tight space of this custom box should improve light penetration and ventilation/temps, as apposed to my first grow of just using the entire closet space to grow. Closet space 5' x 3' x 8' VS Grow-box 2' x 2' x 4'...

Very creative!! Hope the white paint keeps down the possibility of mold on the cardboard. Other than that thought...very well done!

Thanks! I actually used white foam poster board. Very easy to clean and the light reflection is pretty awesome.. Appreciate the comment!

Yeah, if I had the money/space I would definitely go with custom wooden grow-box and I would use MH + HPS instead of CFLs, but this is what I got for now =D Thanks for stopping by, appreciate the input!
