I plan on making a Cfl Scrog Grow Box up and running within the next month. But I don't have all that much space to grow because it's got to be stealth.

My question is how big should the box be if I plan to harvest at least 2-3 ounces per grow (1 plant)? Im aware that the strain, lighting and all that plays a part in yield but how big of a box should i be looking at?
I was thinking of your average tupperware but i dont know if that'd be big enough

srh88 is right, you seem to be on top of it really. One plant scrog in that space is just right imo.
Sorry, I'll try to be quicker next time...;)

I plan to Lst to the dirt for the first one or two nodes, so it starts off growing horizontal. Then Top the third node & let it grow vertically through the screen and switch the lights to 12/12 for flower. Ive never grown before so this is all new-ish to me..

keep your screen at 6". just enough to get your hands in there. when a branch grows 2" thru the screen, attached it to screen, and pull it back under screen. pop it thru the next hole over. fill screen about 75% and flip to 12/12. fill the rest of the screen and then let her go. you're now scroggin'

Seems to me like you cutting it close even with it being a "SCROG" grow. Have you figured in the height of your pot? And the available space your buds will have to grow?

Let's say the box is 3 foot tall & the lights take up 6" & the pot takes 8". After I Lst to the dirt horizontally for a little ways I'll Top her & let it go through the screen (another 6" upwards) and that'll leave me a good 12" for bud growth without getting burnt from the cfls ^_^
Nic Pic Btw lol
