Top 5 Best Marijuana Grow Boxes

Simply put, a grow box for weed is a contained ecosystem that is designed for growing cannabis plants. They usually come as a kit  — i.e. the cabinet itself and every material that you will need to nurture a cannabis seed to maturity. They can generally be divided into two categories: hydroponic (where plants are fed nutrients and water) and soil (where plants get nutrients from soil or moss). Most boxes require very little work and may even be automated.

While some individuals get into growing cannabis as a hobby, many also do it as a way of saving money. Depending on your habits, you may find that you can recoup the costs of a grow box and then some. Most grow boxes are designed to fit inside your home (for indoor grows), and will come with considerations that go along with this, such as odor control, lighting systems, energy efficiency, and an inconspicuous design.

The Cash Crop 6.0 from Dealzer is known for being a budget-friendly but mighty option. Advertising itself as “dummy-proof,” this particular grow box comes with an easy-to-follow instruction manual and customer support. It comes in the choice of regular or hydroponic, with the hydroponic option exenterating growth cycles by around two weeks.

If you’re new to growing weed, you’ll be delighted to receive a fully assembled grow box with all the materials needed for a successful crop. This includes everything from a proper ventilation system to stones to an air pump to plant nutrients. The only thing you’ll have to contribute are the seeds. You may also want to invest in an LED for a full-spectrum light cycle.

From a design perspective, the Cash Crop 6.0 offers a stealthy advantage, designed to resemble an ordinary cabinet. This cabinet has a stylish, handcrafted look, and is handmade in the United States from high-quality Russian wood. The Cash Crop 6.0 comes with a lifetime warranty (note that this excludes lights, which only come with a one-year warranty).
