Hey guys. I am just about finished with my grow box and I have begun germinating my seed (Norcal Napa Valley Kush). Just wanted to see if anybody had some suggestions on what more I can do for my first grow box.

Those are not the actual lights I will be using for my grow, I just wanted to see if the electrical was correct.

Looks pretty good so far couple of questions
What are your box dimensions?
Can you put more than two lights? (you will need more than two CFLs to get decent buds, highly would recommend 4+)
I see a fan on the bottom left, is this fan an intake fan or does it blow air out of the box?

Do you need to worry about odor control and if so do you have anything in the department? (this is lower priority because you will have a couple weeks before they reek)

Im guessing soil?

Keep us posted :P

You're going to want to be able to move the plants up and down to get the most out of the lights too. and maybe another fan to blow over the tops

The box is 16"x24"x48".
I plan on putting in two 100 actual watts 6500K CFLs at first and I will be adding an adjustable shelf to control how far the plants are away from the light.
The fan in the bottom left is an intake. There is a whole on top where I am adding an two exhaust fans.
No worry about odor control; and yes, i am using soil
