i know that there are grow tent products like the bud box on the market at the moment. but what do you guys think about a DIY version of it?

Compact Walk In Greenhouse Shelving Included - DIY and Tools from DIYTools.co.uk - Your First Stop For All Things DIY ! (http://www.diytools.co.uk/diy/Main/Product.asp?iProductID=37656)

this could very easily be converted to a discrete growing cabinet. coat it with mylar or similar on the inside, and coat it with something dark on the outside...

it is simply a framework which you put together yourself and then put the plastic cover over it. since it is a very flexible material it is easy to cut a hole and attach a carbon filter. the metal mesh shelves can easily be removed if necessary, but they could be used as a SCROG grow.

appologies, i'm slightly drunk at the moment, but regardless i think that this product (or similar) could be converted into a very cheap grow box. the mylar may not be cheap, but it could be added at a later date. this kind of greenhouse could be constantly upgraded (add mylar, add a carbon filter, add a fan). you could start out with it on its own

YUP! Same idea as the homebox or hydrohut.
Seriously check ou tthose products! Purpose-built to accept BIG watts and ventilation. 2 thumbs up.

those purpose built models that you mentioned will obviously be better, but considering the price would you say that the indoor greenhouse would be a good investment?

i mean, the greenhouse is cheap and you can easily add to it :)

thanks for the reply stinkyattick :)
