    grown in two garden tool boxes hot glued together and secured with zip ties. Took some roof insulation and surrounded the exterior. Could've don't a much better job sealing the doors but I just got really lazy and said fuck it. Learned a valuable lesson from not sealing though from all the fucking pest I had...

    450 watt vipair spectra light hung above placed on wooden planks and adjusted with small pieces of PVC and held in place with screws.

    Harvested maybe 45 grams wet for one plant. Other plant still growing. Was fun microgrowing but I need to yield more. Will focus on LST & scrogging better and of course preventing these deficiencies and fucking pests next grow. I take criticism nicely and suggestions are always appreciated. Enjoy!

    Total cost was - $270

    Vipair spectra 450w Led - $116
    16ft Warm Led Strips - $20
    6" 395 CFM inline fan variable speed- $67
    6" 240 CFM inline fan - $26
    6" 8 foot ducting - $8
    2 garden tool boxes - had 2 lying around (probably 30 bucks each)
    Wood planks on top - $8
    White spray paint - $4
    Roof insulation - $20

  2. A tent was my ideal choice but since I was trying fit it in a oddly shaped closet, no tents were available in the size I needed so I had to a get a little creative. Not my finest work by far but it worked.
     
  3. That was a real bummer waiting 4 months to harvest a total of 20 grams dry hurt me.

    My friend told me to toss the box since it was a piece of crap but I promised my self I would harvest a worthy amount. I believe in my budget box. 0D517A8C-2EA2-4AEE-AFF7-5C95C0E06AA3.jpeg

  5. how is it going
     
  6. Thinking of adding more overhead?
     
  7. Get some emergency blankets and wrap the inside. I think that will help collect more of your light.
