pre fab grow boxes

[deadhead65]

Just curious if anyone has bought and used a prefabricated grow box. If so which one and from where did you buy it?

I use marijuana for medicinal purposes but really hate buying it from dealers so I want to start to grow some myself, but I want to keep it low-key so I don't have to explain myself to my kids. :hippy:

Cash tells no tales and leaves no trails, my friend. I have the homebox XL and love it althogh it sticks out like a sore thumb in my small house if anyone comes over and asked what it is I might just say a darkroom for developing pictures.:jointsmile:

never bought one. But you could build your own cab from one of those flat white cabinets you get at target or where ever. Not all that hard and you would come out cheaper in the end. Some of the prefab cabs like the BC nothernlights one is a couple grand if iremeber right.

Deadhead, do you have access to clones?
The BloomBox is a really well made product, ideal if you have a source of clones. I haven't used one, but had a chance to inspect one... not my style, but good for what it is meant to do.
For a complete start to finish grow, I'd go for a tent such as the homebox XL and ask your local hydro shop to put together a package deal for you that includes he tent, lights, fan, ducting, filter, pots, and medial. An independent shop should be able to make a good deal for you.

I don't have access to clones. I was just going to buy some seeds and start from there. I have a huge basement and a few actual rooms and closets down there that I could start the seedlings with. That's not a problem. I just don't want it to get too big out in the open in case the kiddos start asking questions.

Are there shops like that in the Boston area? I'm actually a little north of boston. I'm kind of paranoid about asking around though just in case they get suspicious about what it's for. :wtf:

Oh wow this is exactly what I'm looking for!!! Especially since it has a lock to it! The Bloom Box

The price is a wee bit prohibitive though.

Define "wee bit". LOL

A tent would be good - but you can't lock a tent. Take a look at HydroHuts - they're pretty cool.

The thing about the kids is, you need to vent your grow and that means fans and fans mean noise and once one kid hears that noise you know darn well you will get no peace until they are satisfied that they know what the noise is. So probably you should consider having a grow inside a room and just keeping the room secure.

...and maybe even a diversionary source of noise - something that you would be glad to spend hour upon boring hour explaining to the kids in excrutiatingly boring detail... you get the idea

Good luck! :thumbsup:

wee bit = i'm willing to spend like $100. roflmaoooo. I did find that exact one on ebay for $500 though so all hope is not lost yet.


yeah i didn't factor in the noise. I actually have a cedar closet downstairs that is pretty big. It's a walk in closet but there is no ventiliation outside. The kids are both girls and are afraid to go down cellar because of possible insects so I think I'll be ok, but you just never know, you know? Especially once they start doing their own laundry...which won't be for a few more years I think.

I think I'll have to set something up in one of the rooms that has a window in it since sometimes the basement floods and I don't want a moisture problem going on.

So, in reality, the $3,500 price would actually be more like a tad prohibitive - as opposed to a wee bit.

The sad fact is that lights, fans and all the other stuff you need to grow inside costs money. $500 would actually represent a pretty low start-up cost.
