A friend would like to do a closet stealth grow with just a plant or two for personal consumption. He is thinking of three options and would like your feedback on the following:


1. Single (not clamshell) 32 gallon rubber tote bin

Pros:

Looks at home in the closet.

Multiple (2 or 3) short plants

Easy to cut

Cheapest


Cons:

Requires paint or mylar

Shallow



2. 32 gallon rubber trash can

Pros:

Able to grow much bigger/taller (single?) plant

Easy to cut


Cons:

Not as sturdy

Requires paint or mylar



3. 32 gallon galvanized steel trash can

Pros:

Should be reflective enough without anything added

Very sturdy for mounting lights and fans and such


Cons:

Looks out of place

Might be warmer?

Harder to cut/saw

50-100 % more expensive


He is not going to build/buy a cabinet so please limit your thoughts on these three. He is leaning heavily towards the steel can despite the drawbacks because of its reflective nature and strength for mounting lights, lowering chains and fans and would generally prefer a (taller?) sativa over an indica.

Any thoughts for this old timer, but new farmer?
