    Black or white grow box base

    I am in the process of setting up my grow boxes. Basically, there will be two setups (one for mothers, clones and veg and the other for flower). I am making them out of 2X4's for the structure and then I am making plywood tops and bases. I will be covering the base, top and side with a 6mil...
