New rubbermaid setup COMPLETE.

Im not sure about the autos and their light schedule but for anything else the clear box would pose a problem with light getting in during flowering during lights off time as well as losing light due to it dissipating thru the clear plastic during lights on time. Other than that it is a creative little grow box. I like the idea behind it

thanks man i appreciate the comments. a lot of time goes into this- more than one would think before going head first into it. i dont back down easy though. it will be accomplished

+rep to you, sir.

...still waiting for attitude seeds to arrive..ordered jan 24, dispatched the 27... still says originating post

like it was said before you should def go with the flat white spray and apply to your desire... flat white gets you about 85% reflection mylar gets you about 95% so if you can spare the 10% for less money go with that plus tin foil will create burn spots if the plants are within certain distance of the walls and has less than 85% reflection i think your best bet is the flat white... also if you decide to make another or for anyone wanting to make 1 of these i would recommend turning the top box upside down so you dont have to cut out a bottom and will provide less work and less sharp plastic edges thats just MO but very nice setup congrats =)

yeah i guess i will have to figure something out about the white flat spray paint. but about flipping it upside down- i tried to do that and it just didnt sit right. these are actually Sterilite brand containers also. i mean, maybe if i got some weather seal it would have but i figured screw it. it sits more rigid this way i think after i sealed the seam between the bottom lid and top's bottom. thanks for the comments appreciate it have some rep
