Hello all.
After looking at my options as far as what to start my first grow in, I've decided on building a custom box. It will be 2.5 x4x5, it will be in the basement and will vent through the dryer vent directly outside. Made out of 2x4's and mdf. It will also be on casters for easy movement and to keep it off the basement floor.
After seeing all of the tents I know I can build something similar, cheaper and custom to what I want. Basically I want it to look like furniture.
I have a few questions before I start building it.
1. The size? I decided on this size because I'd like to be able to move it through doorways in case of the furnace guy or whatever. Should I just go a foot higher? Will I regret this size in any way in a couple months from now? Space is not an issue but since I'm new to this I'd like to keep this manageable but not regret it later.
2. Lower and upper vent.. How many? Sizes? Best type? Floor?
3. Wiring will all be top mounted, good idea? Better idea?
4. Am I forgetting anything? What would you want if you were doing this?
I'm sure I will have a bunch more questions, I will take pictures and post them when I get started on this.
