Hey guys,
Thought I would pop in and give you all a little update as to the progress of my first attempt at a grow setup. I've decided to use a 23"x17"x36" space in my closet for the single plant setup. I have opted to go with LED lighting due to the size constraints I am working with, as well as to keep temperatures down inside the box. Some info on the setup:
-65w Hans panel (waiting for it to arrive, it's sitting in Canadian customs - should be here next week)
-23x17x36 carboard box reinforced/assembled with gorilla/duct tape
-Wooden dowel frame for added structure and light-hanging support
-White polymar reflective material taped to the inside with reflective tin tape
-Eye bolt with metal flange/washers used as the mounting point for the Hans panel (which will be attached with potters chain)
-DIY carbon filter (https://www.rollitup.org/do-yourself/101248-best-diy-ez-walmart-carbon.html) Ty Wolfman Zen
-4" muffin fan for exhausting
I will probably finish the build up tonight - still need to cut a hole for the air intake/cover it with mesh, and cut a hole to feed power cords out of the box. The front of the box is a cardboard panel that will be taped to form a seal, which I've cut out a fairly decently sized door that is held in place with magnetic strips and has a makeshift handle.
So after the box is completed tonight, I just have to wait for the Hans panel to get here and then I will get this box going with a little clone inside of it.![Big Joint :bigjoint: :bigjoint:](/styles/smilies/smoking.gif)

I will update this post later tonight/tomorrow with pics of the finished box.
