I don't know the exact size. I used a regular size power outlet to give u a idea of the L and W. the height I'm guessing is around 4ft.
will this work for a growbox? pics incl

I'm going to cut a hole in it tomorrow and make a door. I want to make like a carbon filter at the top. The lights will be fixed at the top but i'll make a shelf to put the plants up close to it.

IMO that would be good for seedlings, clones, and veg stage. I would go bigger but depends on how much you wanna grow. 4ft tall will prob end up having height limitations or ur weed tho. I would agree with two plants also.

Well I kinda want it to be stealth. I live in my own apartment but I usually have people over. What size do you think would be good for just a personal grow?

You prob would be ok with this. Might have to supercrop. I would order a strain thats small height wise.

Hell that should work! I have seen some people on here grow in Uhaul cardboard boxes. 
Should be fine for 2 plants like the others are saying.

soil. I got 3 seeds going right now. white widow, white rhino, and four way. put them in those jiffy seed starter things. I need to either use this speaker box or go buy a cabinet from craigslist or something. you guys think this will work fine? Its pretty tall but not not alot of width space

I think im going to get this dresser from walmart and modify it for a box instead. Do you think this will work better than the speaker?

Its tall enough--but how would you circulate the air? and it would be in your best interest to grow an indica- about 3-6 ft high- but the only prob youll have is the width---Good Luck

I know there is more than just putting up some lights in there lol. I plan on building a carbon filter with 2 exhaust fans and 2 intake. I'm going up to the store to get the dresser from walmart today. Might make a guide on everything that I did. I made a PC grow box guide awhile back so I guess I'll do this.

You should check your local metal scrap and recycling place as they usually have metal cabinets off all sorts of flavors for very good prices, I picked one up for 30$. You can also stop by local thrift stores like the salvation army, goodwill, ect.
Spend alittle time looking and you'll be amazed at what you find....

I ended up buying that cabinet from walmart. I think it will work good. Getting it all setup now.

What do you guys think? I still need to add the intake, exhaust, and lights. Also not sure what to use for the door on the backside. The box came with like a cardboard back.
