Growing/curing under a kitchen sink?

I've considered putting a kitchen sink in my basement which is where I grow. That got me to wondering about the space underneath. The sink and cabinet base I'm looking at is 36 x 24 x 36. After we lose about 10 inches from the top for the sink that gives about 26 inches to work with. Would that be a fair size for a mother plant and small clone chamber? Or would it be better to turn that space into a curing and drying box. Thank you for your input

Have you thought about using it for storing cleaning materials? :?

But seriously, I don't think it would be very good for curing. What's your general humidity on average? If you actually use that sink for something other than an ornament, then I suspect condensation could become an issue.
As for growing? Maybe a cloning area, sure. I don't think putting mothers in there would be wise, though, for reasons similar to prior.

OK, i'll do some more reading before I entertain the curing box idea any further. The basement is generally 50% or lower humidity. I thought the size might be perfect for a starting/cloning chamber and figured squeezing a mother in is wishful thinking.

I had an old friend who used his kitchen as a nursery. He was an odd one, to say the least, but nearly every cupboard was being used to clone and germinate. :lol: So I know it will be okay for something like that.
 
Thats a nice idea. Makes it easy to adjust. I see you have mixed spectrum as well. Looks good. My last grow i used blue for veg and red for flower. Im using mixed this time around. Overall looks good. Keep some updated pics here and there thanks rock on...

Cannabis growers are a sneaky bunch. I can see it now, cops search the entire hose looking for a grow room and turn up nothing! :mrgreen:

Some how I had a feeling this was doable even if you have to train, tie, and bend the plant down some. Good Job!
