hahaha....looks good man. Is your old set-up the first two pics? What type of lights do you have atatched to the walls? They seem to be a pretty good idea for side lighting.

The only thing I noticed was in pic 4, it looks like a bit of light leak on the door's hinge that you could seal up....unless it just looks that way in the pic (maybe shiny tape???)

Later days

no ones said anything about the tin foil??:S
it has very bad reflection proprties and reflects light at odd angles and creates hotspots,
the best thing you can use is mylar, somthing better for you i would suggest some white bristal board its a bit easyer than painting that way

yes, i do know that tin foil is bad but its what i got for now. i plan on getting some mylar asap.for now the tin will have to work. i do know to use less shinier side of the tin to help not have hot spots. thank you for looking out for me potsmoker420. ;-)

think about using a large tub instead of the bucket maybe 16 gal to give the roots more space to grow resulting in bigger plants bigger buds

the room doesnt look that bad you could grow some nice sized plants in there but it might take up the whole space
