Hey,
So Im nearing the flowering stage for my indoor grow. Today is day 40 and still just waiting on the preflowers before I start 12/12. And I need to be ready.
Im growing steathaly in a custom-built aquarium cabinet with less than 5 cubic feet and have 3 plants going strong. They are currently all in individual terracotta pots and once I have the sexes 100% determined I am planning on doing a final re-pot into a single, custom-built, water-tight container that fits the base-interior of this aquarium stand so they can get the maximum soil-space.
Of course Im praying they will all be girls but even if I just get one female Ill still be able to fill the entire space with buds (SCROG), it will just take more veging time.
So my question for you all is...do any of you have any idea of a material I can use to construct this container? Construction itself is not a problem, Ive got that all figured out, right now it's just WTF do I make this damn thing out of?
I of course want something opaque so the roots stay in the dark.
I would prefer something fairly thin (no thicker than 1/8") so it's easy to work with.
Some ideas Ive had were to cut-up an old trash can or large plastic storage box.
But before I go lurking around the neighborhood at midnight stealing trashcans I thought Id check with you all first and see if you had any better ideas
Here's a rough sketch with dimentions so you all can get an idea of what Im thinking about here. Thanks.
Peace.
