Help me choose a grow box.
Hi, im pretty new to growing so im not sure which grow box to go with and need expert opinions. Im not really handy or have tools to build my own. I will be growing autoflowering strains with soil. These are some that im interested in, found them on ebay. my budget is between $200-$500. Im mainly interested in grow boxes since they are stealthy and more convenient. I know i could probably set u a grow room with $500 but i dont have the space or privacy to do so.
The first grow box

Its pretty cheap only 230 shipped. Comes with a hydroponic system. Cons might be the size of the grow box might be to small and the lighting might not be sufficient. Only 3 cfl bulbs? maybe i can upgrade to higher bulbs? they are not adjustable either. Also the box offers no odor control
Number 2

This one has more info on the auction - its 36x20x15, has three 55 watt fluoros, so 165watts and a 130Cfm fan and timer. Im not sure if the lowryder has a timer it doesnt say on the auction. This one has what looks like a decent manual too, but it is made of cardboard so idunno.its alot bigger though . Price is 239.00
And number 3

This one looks the nicest but close to 2x expensive. box is 36" x 20" x 28" so its much bigger than the other grow boxes. It has a 150w hps which has more lumens than the nug box - it doesnt say how many. says the fan blows 160 cfm.. so the grow box should stay cool? Also unlike the other 2 this has odor control with snap on carbon filters. Its $499 with shipping... I think it might be over my budget - It says you can grow up to over half a pound in it - but i don't believa that...
Right now im kinda leaning towards the nug box .. looks like it has the most growing potential to price ratio... What one would you guys recommend?

The first two are cheap knockoffs of the third. Cardboard, you can do that yourself.... Can't tell what the first one is made from but you definitely want to be able to lower and raise your lights. The one with the HPS is going to give you the best yield, plain and simple.... Plus it looks to be made of steel or aluminum, durable, plus you can snap on a carbon filter....
A famous and well respected grower here on cancom says, "if you go cheap, you grow cheap!". Indoor growing is not something that is inexpensive to do especially if you want better than ok results.... $500 is just the beginning....
Good luck to you and your decision....
