Is this really big enough?

Hey guys,

I need your opinion here please. I just ordered a 50 dollar grow box from ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/150890770383?_trksid=p5197.c0.m619 The thing that sold me was that it said, (this unit will take you from seed to harvest). I don't see how this tiny thing could actually take 6 plants to harvest. What do you guys think? Should I return it? Here's a picture of it in front of my 4 site box. I'm sure it only holds a gallon of water.

Thanks
Beau

No chance for 6 plants seed-to-weed in it. Use it for cloning?

I strongly urge those who haven't started any hydro to stick to single plants in 5 gallon DWC. No multiple units suggested. Instead use multiple 5 gallon units. Buy a big pump at the outset and use a manifold to aerate units as you get them on line. Just from experience.

Thank you hotrod. I figured as much. I think I'll just keep the thing for a cloner as you suggested. Live and learn. As far as the multiple 5 gallon units goes, I just don't have enough space for all that. I just have a closet that I made into 2, 2 1/2' X 2 1/2' sections. One for veg and one for flower. I could only fit a couple 5 gallon buckets in each. Where as I can fit a 6 site bucket, maybe 2 easily.

You can make a kit like that for about 20$
