inconspicuous grow box ideas

Hey guys, new here...and finally have a semi-ideal opportunity to test my green thumb.


I'm a long-time lurker and have watched various youtube videos about cultivation and read the GROW FAQ/numerous threads on this site. All very helpful and informative

What I couldn't find was a thread or section pertaining to info about grow-boxes. I'd like to do something as inconspicuous ("stealthy" in your terms haha) as possible. I've heard about PC grow boxes but I was thinkin maybe a hollow file-cabinet could be a better option for me.


For my first attempt, I wanna do somethin like a micro grow w/bagseed, using warm/cool CFL's and switching to 12/12 after 1 1/2- 2 weeks (if all goes well) because I'm working with a limited time frame and I'm more concerned about my plants maturing during flower.


SO whatcha guys think, any ideas for a stealthy, inconspicuous grow box? (I want the plants to reach maybe 10-12 inches tops when they flower and will suppercropping, topping, LSTing and pruning for bushiness)

THANKS

OH one more thing....

how does everybody feel about starting the 12/12 flower cycle before any signs of pre-flowers? I'm hoping this will speed up the budding process. Anything specific I should know?

I'm also planning on growing, it will be my second try.

I have watched you tube videos, read random forums over the internet and have once grown a single sprout-ling (I had to get rid of it though). I have decided to hollow out a 3 1/2 foot wardrobe thats in my room and turn the front panel into two swinging doors using cabinet hinges. One half will be my vegging room and the other half will be my flowering room. I still need to purchase my lights and equipment.

The wardrobe is about 4 feet from its left side to its right side, 3 1/2 feet from top to bottom and about 1 1/2 feet to 2 feet deep (front to back). I'm going to remove the front of the cabinets and turn the whole front panel into a pair of doors. The doors will have some sort of single support behind them like a sheet of thin wood. The fronts of the sliding cabinets will be placed onto the door in there correct locations to make the wardrobe look normal. Fortunetly this wardrobe has two sets of of three sliding cabinets on either side of it instead of just three very long sliding cabinets, so creating the two seperate doors wont require me to break the cabinet fronts in half. In the end both halfs will be seperated and I will have my two grow rooms hidden inside of what looks like a normal wardrobe that people usually keep their clothes in.
