Hello everybody
here is my little clone box
footprint is 1sq foot, there is 1 20w fluro and 3 pc fans.
air is sucked in through a passive vent on the bottom right hand side and sucked out the top, through a length of ducting and into a box with 3 pc fans attached to it.
This is only a temporary thing as i was 2 weeks into flower and didn't want to leave it too late before taking any cuttings.
it took me all of 10 minutes to make, it is far from lightproof or stealthy but it does the job.
3 of the clones that are inside will be going to good homes. (the 3 girls in soil)
here is a pic of the outside, although the big S bend is gone now

I sure if I walked in the room I wouldn't notice a big cardboard box with light flooding out!
I've just taken five clones from one of mine for the first attempt, but looking at yours with all that bush, I'm wondering if I scalped mine too much
Hope it all goes to plan for yer

Hi Dohped,
I wouldn't use those clear white cups m8, when the light hits the roots they wont like it, and i THINK, not to sure, but clear cups with water in can cause alegy thats why in bubblers the bubbler bucket is a dark colours to stop light getting in. it's just what i've picked up from around the boards

Well enjoyed that

, say hello to Mrs P for me, MUST do that again D

Clone box looks as though it works, I am sure that IF necessary, over time you'll be improving here and there

Yea, I thought I was being smart/cheap by using cut down pop bottles and this appeared...made little 'skirts' for my girls to keep em from showing they bits in public.

Wonder if that's the reason?

yeah nice one HG & seedo
could be right there, the first clones that were taken into water were covered by tinfoil and they were well rooted after 10 days.
with regards to the white cups, surely they reflect the light more than allow it to get to the roots? correx nft covers and all that

sorry G m8, i don't understand what you meen when you say "if it needs improving" ????
my cardboard growboxes are as close to perfection as is humanly possible.
well, as close to perfection as you can get using cardboard & pc fans
