Nice Redneck engineering there (and I mean that in the sincerest way possible)!
If you’re just starting out, it’s likely you’re going to be screwing up your first few tries in some way, and I think this homemade setup will be a great way to learn the basics while going through those first few runs without having to drop a few hundred bucks on a full kit.
And tbh you can probably get some serious weight on a plant in there if you get good at bonsai-ing your baby (and probably replace that light at some point).

I would put aluminum foil or mylar (even cheaper and better reflective properties) on all sides including the bottom. You can download a lux meter on your phone e to estimate how much light the plants are getting. The bottom lining will also help prevent mildew from the humidity and potential wet cardboard. The fan is a great/necessary touch that can easily be forgotten

Do you have a more powerful light? Sadly that 6w LED won’t do shit for a plant.

Post to r/trailerparkboys !
That’s Ricky af
Freedom 35 my guy
We all start with a cardboard box and some foil. The computer fan is a nice touch 👌🏼
Make a drip pan or secondary containment in there, so one spill content make a soggy box
A cardboard box …. 🤣🤣🤣🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👨🚒👨🚒
This is so cool. I’m gonna google how this works and make myself one!
Keep an eye out for raykens and dope eating insects.
This is a fire hazard 😬 and no not because Ricky is in charge of it haha

Getting your life together I see!
I skipped the DIY grow tent when I started and got a “cheap” grow tent bundle and just upgraded the stuff that either broke or sucked
Did you know brothers Grimm has trailer park boy seeds
The pic of Ricky really brings it all together and makes it legit
The houndstooth on top completes it

You need a bubbles picture too
Looks really sick. I keep making excuses but yo just inspired me in showing that starting matters way more than anything
