I will be building a grow box..possibly 2 (flower and veg). I need 2 oz a month and dont know how many plants I need for that so I am not sure how big I want it to be. I would like to use CFLs just because I have heard many advantages. I do have a T5 light but I think I will be abandoning it because I dont want to accommodate a 4 foot light.

Is it worth it if I do make my box around it??

I am not sure what type of venting I need. If someone could let me know Id love them!

My closet is 5,11ft tall 3,4ft wide and 23 inches deep

I also have a closet that I would like to grow in. Downside is it isnt in my room...but I could always lock the door. The room is 3,5 ft high 2,11 wide 4,8 deep. Now the ceiling is slanted so if I changes the depth to 3,10 feet I could change the height to 4 feet. Im not sure about height...Im worried but should I not be??

I do like the idea of grow boxes. I want to have a perpetual grow or a SOG because I want to be harvesting roughly every 3 weeks?? Im not 10% sure. I just through seeds in the ground to start because I got fed up with trying to flood my brain with all this info. Now im trying to get the kinks worked out. So please halp!

Oooo I also forgot that I have a balcony attached to my room but I live in Idaho so winters would be a problem...unless someone knows how to make a grow box insulate to work with 5 degree temps.DSCN0028.jpgDSCN0029.jpg


Again just looking for what YOU! would choose in my situation. Thanks fellow blazers and happy stonings

Thats alot of questions lol. First and for most; you do have to read around the forums for these questions, theres tons of info. As for your lights the t-5 bulbs will be better then cfls for sure. (if possibly?) a perpetual harvest is alot of work, every three weeks is very possible. 3 clones go in for three weeks then a next set follows, making different weeks between flowering plants(like a conveyor belt) leaving you with 1-3wks 4-6wks 7-9wks and harvesting 2-3 little plants (1oz?)theres still tons of info you should read around here ive learned all of this stuff from riu alone!!!
