First Grow - Beg, Borrow & Steal - Advice Wanted

So my new grow box is built. Still needs a few final touches.

It was a bitch getting it in the closet, had to take it apart and build it again inside. It's aproximately 22" across 32" long and 4 ft tall. To think I built that for three plants. I might have overdone it.

Have six 42w 5500k CFLs hanging now, will switch to 2700k during flower.

Because I'm on a budget I used white paint for now.

Covered the floor with two layers of painters plastic and used water-proof duct tape to secure it.

Also, all nine seeds that I planted came up. 100% Germ. rate.

i am fairly impressed, i built a box(for stealth, grow chamber inside) very much like this
looks pretty fine, not clear if it will be completely enclosed, in which case some ventilation may be needed
but this is a very good start

That's a perfect growbox, fine for 3 plants. Good amount of light too. Looks like you're getting hooked, I'm addicted to modifying my setup and trying new things. Have fun and good luck!!!
