Design for one plant grow box

Yeah, Just trying to get design considerations for a small grow box
(even better if it could be used as an egg incubator also)

So I have a project to make a box display with a clear (glass or plexi) style front and thought I would make some sort of growing box

The Max dimensions are than 12"x 18"x4" just curious what type of one plant grow box / mini greenhouse you would do 7 sides are wood while the final is the clear side.

Is it better to hinge the glass side another side?

Is something like tinfoiling the interior ideal?

I know the sizing is spotty but figure I can get one smaller planter.

Thinking top as the glass section

frame/box of not larger than 12 x 18” and no deeper than 4 inches. It must incorporate at least one graphic element and a sign vinyl component of at least 24 words to get full marks. (Thinking instructions or growing information if you had 24 words to put on a grow box what would they be?)

Possible framing materials include ash, poplar, and maple, though there may be a limited selection of other woods/composite materials as well.

Substrates include plywood, foam boards, Coroplast, integral foam, HIPS, MDF and Masonite.

acrylic or glass sheet.

one piece of additional internal glazing material.??? some type of mirror panel??? is it better to have an air pocket at the top by putting in a second clear sheet? perhaps able to grow sprouts on it?

does the second sheet offer any advantage??? how much space should be between the first sheet and second sheet if it adds insulation value etc..?

Is it better to have a light in the box or on the other side of the glass??

Line the interior with aluminum foil???

5 sides foil lined? https://imgur.com/a/m1NSEE9

Will hot glue be ideal for foil lining the wood or is something else best.. like stick glue??? affixing it to matboard first??
