homemade Grow Box Needs Cretique

Ok so i started growing about 2 weeks ago and decided to build a box, I have 6 23w daylight spectrum cfls, 2 exhaust fans positioned between the fans, an in takefan at the base of the box, the box consists of two storage tubs, inside lined with automotive sun reflectors( 2 jumbo), fermentation chamber outside of box(2 liter bottles), and a replaceable reflective door, this is the rough model I will make it look better cosmetically, and maybe install another intake fan at the base, any questions/comments plz ask,
any "fixes" I need plz plz lemme know thanks

one thing I really need advice on is light proofing it, I spray painted the whole inside b4 putting the mylar in. I havnt proofed the seam where the tubs meet (need supplies), and I havnt spray painted the inside of the access panel, see the light outline on it? so Basically I want to light proof the top with the two exhaust fans, and the bottom left where the in take fan is, I will prolly put in another intake fan when I put more bulbs in. its staying 79-80 in there right now. I want to be able to put it amongst boxes being stored in the garage and it not look like theres a plant growing in there. any help will be greatly appreciated

I'd worry less about cosmetics, and make sure all of your splices are capped with wire nuts or crimp connectors. Especially if it's to be stashed away with other stuff in the garage. Safety trumps practicality every time. Don't have much advice to offer besides that, I've never used on of those setups.

What's in the 'fermentation chambers'? Yeast/sugar for C02? I'm just curious, you never stated what you're fermenting.

yep yeast and sugar, 2 2 liter coke bottles, and Ive still got to get those caps, they're not bare tho, they're covered in a thick layer of hot glue, I couldn't ground them if I tried, and its are only a 12 volt dc current going to pc fans , I could lick the bare wires, the ac-dc inverter would fail and I MIGHT feel a tiny shock, like a static discharge.

So what wil the c02 do for the plant? ie make bigger, tighter, or just better? On my set up I have good air flow or dose that mean i dont need a set up like this?

Plants breath in CO2 and expell O2. But anyway, I used this method before in the beginning of my grow, seemed to work. got great results as you can see from my threads
