Now I built this box with what I had in lumber, when I get some cash I put a little bit more work into it.
I sealed it with caulk, and painted it with Bathroom paint to survive the humidity, bright reflective paint. I will say Home Depot has been my best friend for this project.
I bought an 18" florescent light fixture for my 18" Ultra violet Germicidal light bulbs.(as seen in picture blue light) I've mounted brackets for a pot rack. I have a two 24" Florescent Grow light bulbs that are :wall:T12 I have to return the fixture because my high ass got a T8 fixture!
I have an intake fan box ready to mount, and an Outtake fan that is mounted at the top with speed controls. :?:I Need a timer that can run 5seconds on to 5minutes off :?:. tomorrow I am going to start the wiring, get a new light fixture and install two more brackets for racks.

:fire:Germicidal bulbs are extremely hefty as they provide ultraviolet radiation, purify air, Warning with this light, Direct or reflected exposure of the ultraviolet energy emitted by this lamp to eyes, or skin should be avoided to prevent possible serious burns, adaquate protection should be provided by clothing, gloves, opaque, materials, and ordinary window glass. although this lamp will operate in standard fluorescent fixtures it should not be used for general lighting applications.
