I like it. The rubbermaid thing has been done before, but yours looks really good, it looks just like 2 storage bins stalked on top of eachother, the other one I saw looked way obvious.

would be nice if we had an UPDATE

hope your plant(s?) are doing well bro!

[giroldo]

what are the exact specs on the lights?

what stage would you use this big rig for?

[chwplayer09]

what would you do for odour control?

[OldSkool1010]

The false bottom/top of those two containers is a really good idea. I built a rubbermaid growbox, but like most folks have said..."Way Obvious" that it is something more than storage...but it works GREAT!

how much heat do those lamps provide?

i first traced a pattern onto the lid on the bottom box that was slightly smaller than the diameter of the bottom of the top box and cut it out with a razor. then cut out the bottom of the top box to match the size cut into the lid of the bottom box. then i drilled two holes with a hole saw and used a razor blade and hot glue to both cut a hole for the fan and secure it. as for the brackets, i went to a hardware store and bought a bunch of pieces and then designed what you see. the fan adapter is a 12v adapter that can be found at any department store or radio shack.

as for updates, the previous grow had to be eliminated for security reasons. however, it's been a while and now i've got a clone and 5 seeds, so we'll see what's gonna happen.

i love the idea!! that bar is going to make it easy to move the lights!!

what is that thing your using (the bar the lights are attached to) and how did u mount the socket splitter to it?

So I am considering using your rubbermaid setup for my grow. I was planning on 4 plants tho. Do you think that would be too big for the rubbermaid? What yield did you get out of your setup?

When u say the output is 150 watts, is that the actual amount the CFLs are using? cause i know on the boxes they say 60 watt light output but it only actually uses 14 watts.

[Merfolk]

Some CFLS, actully are 150 watts or so..
