would it be better to get a power strip with a timer? or does it not matter.

Thank You!!! also since if i use a pc it may look weird since people are curious and may touch. what if i use my xbox 360 box to grow? would it make a difference?

haha an xbox?! even standing vertically i don't you have NEARLY enough space for it to be worth your time or effort. there was a shotglass competition recently (still a current thread) the best yield i saw out of it was about 4 grams, the effort you'll put into mod'ing an XBOX to grow will not be worth it. Stick to your PC.

Some links for you..

Spoon420's PC Grow
He just harvested a little over an ounce, he has DEFINITELY set the bar for PC grows

Shot Glass Grow Off
Check it out, it's just kinda fun, but if you're planning to do a grow, this is a bad place to start LOL takes a bit of skill to actually manage to keep a plant healthy in such confined conditions, and this is more or less what you would have to do in an XBOX

good luck! happy growing!

Anyone in the UK managed to make 1 of these?

Having trouble tracking down the power socket light bulb adapters here

Cant seem to find them anywhere... can anyone help?

pff you're not the only one ... in other parts of the world (read europe) is as hard to find that kind of adapters ... and ordering them online via web ain't quite the brightest ideea. I have a grow box in mind made out of pfl ply wood, with the following sizes, 1 metre long, 60 centimetres wide and 1.2 metres tall in us sizes I think it would translate something like 3.2 feel L, 2 feet w and about 4 feet h, I'm planing to grow just for personal use about 2 or 3 plants, I would like more but I also wouldn't want to over crowd them and would like a clean well ventilated and organised growing enviroment. I'll fit the whole box with some reflexive tape and I would like some help in the lighting area, I'm going for the CFL as I think it's the best on the budget what do you think it's the best setup I should go for ? I do need to mention that in this part of europe there aren't all of the above solutions available, but I'll try to make the best of what there is. At least there's no worry of people finding out or stuff like that ) So how much light ? How many CFL bulbs and what kind ? thanks in advance !

i made one of these but i used y spliters. so i got 8 bulbs on one strip. i used tape to hold the socket adapters in place. works pretty good.
