Due to my personal experiences, i cant hold my tongue on this. MDF will be a bad choice. MDF absolutely hates moisture and Its about $23 more per sheet than some cheap OSB. Wood is wood, MDF may look a lil nicer but its heavy and will mold/deteriorate quicker than OSB.

I've had an aquaponics (and now hydroponic) set up in the same MDF cabinet for the past six years without any issues to the MDF from moisture. Nothing but flat white latex paint was used on the walls.

This is my first "real grow with a good light" but I made a little grow box with one of those metal garage racks you can buy at lowes or any store like that. And put the mylar bubble wrap stuff onto cardboard to make the walls with. Also cut a hole in the bottom and out in small fan in the side up high I'm a noob for sure but my plants seem to be doing ok. I'm not sure of they are as big as they should be on day 7 though. Any input from experienced growers ?IMG_20200413_200720920_HDR.jpgIMG_20200413_200700787_HDR.jpgIMG_20200416_151029770_HDR.jpgIMG_20200416_151023745_HDR.jpgIMG_20200416_151015201_HDR.jpg

I’m using the bottom for clones and seedlings humidity high on bottom same air goes up to the top and drops about 10 % by the time it gets to the top and I have another Exhaust fan on top to a carbon sheet that I cut to size works like a charm no light leaks Hope this helps
