Thanks for the much needed advice. I plan on probably getting some mylar or painting the box white on my day off. I just hate going to all the hydro shops around here because the cops just stake them out. I plan on continuing to use the box for now because for right now it seems to be do the job. I read on this forum and other forums of people using cardboard boxes (the bulbs are rated at 110 F and the box should definetly beabout withstand 125 F temps. I also plan on reducing the number of babies until i have 6-8 healthy ones (i rather start with a high number and seed out the weak). As for the lightproof issue i can barely see anylight in the position it is in the closet, and i dont plan of flowering in the box and i probably wont flower in the rubbermaid either. I considering going with a 600w cool tube for flowering when my lease is up next month and i move by myself. Thanks once again for answering my questions. See u all soon
