So I'm currently getting out of another hobby which occupies my 6' L x 6' H x 2' W closet. I'm selling all of the stuff off and it should be gone by mid summer. There is also a massive window about two feet from the closet that gets very, very bright afternoon sun. It also happens that I have a 150w metal halide from that hobby to, hehehehee.
So here is my plan... I'm going to make a walk-in "grow rack" instead of just putting a terrarium in the closet! It will be pretty simple. I will fassen ome wire shelving racks from Home Depot, the same stuff I used to make the racks in my greenhouse, to the wall. Maybe two or three of them. I have a wooden shelf at the very to of the closet that I can attach lights to, which would light the highest shelf. I could attach lights to the highest shelf, which would light the next shelf down, and so on. I would cover the opening of the closet with greenhouse material and attach it all the way around the frame of the closet. Not sure how I would make a door. I would cover the inside of the closet with reflective bubble wrap.
Just a rough idea, but I think this would be pretty cool and a good way to maximize my space for growing lowlanders. It will be a lowland grow "rack".
Just curious how you guys that are more experienced with this kind of stuff would go about doing this. If you have any ideas, let me know. This would probably be set up in July or August of 2012.
