This is absolutely perfect for my apartment needs. Is the plastic thick enough not to glow with the doors closed?


Great job

you can see the light throught the plastic. i have a bigger box like that. not very stealty.

lol I forgot to rep you after I posted. I got it to you now though. Would you like to see my quick inexpensive cab?

Yeah, not stealthy. Like someone said earlier. Black it out with liner. I dont need stealth, so the $39 was a better option.

That's gotta be the best cheapest grow cab I've seen yet, nice work man.

Thx Roc! Im on my way to ur journal...

ditty ur a crazy fool i wanna do four of these mom/veg/flower/flower ohhhhh i love perpetual harvest it might just happen some time in the near future are u gonna use fans and i would love to see this scroged out

I have a nice flower room. I just wanted a little shack for my tiny girls. Ill prolly vegg these til their about a foot. Then off to the MH room. Still undecided. Might do all-vegg and save energy. 1 clip on fan. 4"dryer vent for fresh air, tho I just keep it open for fresh air..

+rep ditty! good job dude this is going to do great in my new place. some insulation or a thick coat of white paint would block light, yeah?

Prolly, i think panda plastic should work just fine. Not sure as ive only used Mylar b4. Thx bro!

These are the babies, I put them in the 'Big Girls' room, when I remember to.


These are some of the Big Girls.. Id make this a grow journal, but im wayyyy to forgetful..

These are 4 1.5 gallon pots. If they were square, or grow bags, you could put a few more in this thing..

Thanks for pointing me here man. I am definitely going to walmart this weekend to look into this. I am growing in my bathroom above the toilet on a wall mounted rack, in a space almost exactly this size and just looking for something to make it a little cleaner looking. I am going to look at doing your setup combined with a small DWC to get a few more inches off the bottom. I am only looking to grow two plants at a time, from bagseed so I will probably only veg for a couple weeks and then flower in the same box. Plus rep sir, if you have a journal ill also subscribe to it.

Nice veg box sir. I have one with similar dimensions made out of wood(for those viewing this that are concerned about light leaks) that i purchased at target with a 125w cfl

Thx for stopping by!

sweet fditty! i ended up building mine out of the unit you posted on Siccs thread, not quite that cheap. but mine is due for veg and flower unfortunately. better to grow small than not at all!! there are pics in my sig link if you wanna check it out.

Nice setup Ditty! I was look for an idea since I am currently in a n apartment and was originally just using half of my closet which really didn't have crap for light "insulation". Basically the light is just going everywhere and not just 100% straight on the plants. Your cabinet thing is just the thing I need to do

I got a quick question though. My current "crop" is about 2 weeks old and most of them have not been in direct light and have stretched towards the light.
My question is is a simple fix for this to just cover up a lot of the stem so the plant can stand upright again and continue growing or is it just better to start over?

I have 2 $10 grow lights I got from Walmart on them and have a small fan blowing on them even though it seems counter productive considering they cant stand up much without the air blowing on them even.

Here's a short video of my "setup" haha : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZkZXQtq5kE
