so this is my first time ever doing anything like this and want to show everyone what I am doing. I have started to build my own grow box for the first time. I am using only thinns I have around my house. So I have spent pretty much no money on this so far. I took a little cabinet I had in my kitchen and pulled off the back. There was a shelf in it so I took that out to give myself more room. After I did that I took some white paint I had around and painted the inside all white. I am going to be using CFL's for right now. I had have cool white tubes that are at 6100k the are 17 watt= 75 equivelent. They are gro lux grow bulbs. I have three 2 ft ballast and bulbs. I will also be using some 13 watt 2700k lights that I have I regular sockets. I will only be using two of these along with the tubes for the flowering period. When it come time to flower I plan on bying some 2700k spectrum tubes to use. I figure a mix of these lights should be good for now. I do not have fans right now, but plan on getting some when I get a liitle bit more money. I figure two little six inch fans so be ok for the size of the box. When I have time I will post pictures of the box. I have been taking picture through the whole process. Would love some advice when I get pics up. Good or bad criticism is welcome. Need all the help I can get.
