I've making a 'rubbermaid' grow box with two 35 gallon totes. The plan is to keep them stacked, cut the lid out of the bottom tote, and cut the bottom out of the top tote then cable tie together.
Right now I am working on the painting after that will be cutting the holes for intake and exhaust, attaching the lights, adding fan and filter combo.
I need some advice. These totes are covered in 6 coats of white paint and with one 42 watt cfl inside it is showing tremendous amounts of lighting shining through. I only have so much white paint left, not enough I believe to light proof these totes by itself.
Buy more white and keep painting? Black paint, then more white paint?
