I know space is valuable to some. Me for one.

My grow area is in 3 boxes within 1/2 a bedroom and its' closet. There isn't enough room for a fulltime drying area, so I took a wardrobe moving box and converted it into my part time drying area. Racks are made of 3/4 x 3/4 wood stock (Lowes) and strung with weed wacker line.. I use the same method for my SCROG screen.

It takes about 7-10 days to dry the bud in this box. It is set up 2 inches off the floor, it amounts to a small scale silo. It it can be taken down, folded flat with the racks stored within the top. Racks are mounted on top small screws which protrude into the box.

Neat idea using the cardboard boxes. All the tape kind of gives it away though, in the future if you could make one but use the tape on the inside instead then it will look a lot less suspicious. Especially around the door :P

U right blackpp.. It would be torchure taping inside that box but it would be better. First go at it was under duress (harvest time was here), it was just an emergency fix that worked for me.

Thanks for the ideas...Those boxes will work wonderfully..... BUT!

You will have to buy a refrigerator or washing machine to get one! LOL!! I couldn't wait, I had to buy a big box right then.. that's what I came up with.

What gave me the idea was using the box from my 42" flatscreen tv... It was smaller but it worked perfectly but too small.

Any box will do.

nah.. just go to lowes, home depot, any appliance store and ask them if they have any boxes that size.. Tell them you need them for moving or something believable like that

This makes me think about the guy that made all of his furniture by using Fed-Ex boxes. lol
