new grow box out of a book shelf

  1. i found an old book shelf at a local thrift store and decided it would be perfect for a grow cabinet!

    the 3 shelves that came with it are the perfect size to fit as the front as a door.
    so i am gonna screw them together then get some hinges and a latch with a lock.
    also i plan to install a few fans for intake and exhaust.
    i have one of the big ones and 3 small ones

    do you think this will make a good size cabinet?

  2. Yeah, you are just going to need to paint it completely white. Or line every single inch of it with mylar. Black doesn't reflect ANY light, and that is not a good thing when growin. Try to seal that up as best as possible.
     
  3. yeah i am going to paint the inside completely white tomorrow. today i took the 3 shelves screwed them together and hinged them on like a door. then added a lock and door handle. i think it looks pretty good.
