Default First Time PC Case Grow Random Bagseed
Hey people welcome to my first grow. As you can tell its a PC case which i know is not the greatest, but you got to start some where right? anyways heres some info on my set up.

Enclosure: Antec PC Case
Dimensions: 19x8x22 (LxWxH)
Ventilation: Two 12v Antec fans(3 speeds)
Medium: C.I.L. All purpose Potting Soil
Strain: bagseed (failed) so im on to a strain called "asshole" from wild rose seeds company
Growing Pots: Jiffy pots made of degradable peat(easy for transplanting)
Lights: 4 x 23w 6500k CFL

Pic 1: heres my setup, i tried to make it as clean as possible to optimize space. you may be wondering what the bars in the back are for? they are a part of closet shelving that with a set of hooks(secured to the back of my power bar) it allows my to adjust my lights with ease.

Pic 2: is a picture of my setup with the lights on and boy does the combination of the light and reflictive material hurt your eyes!

nice setup, where did you put the wiring for the fans and lights?
and what are you doing in order to raise the lights up and down?

i left the wires for the fan running long and took them onlong the top of the case to one side and just taped them up with electrical tape. as for adjusting the lights my friend this where i think my inner genious kicked in and it was tricky to do but i bought 2 pieces of 12" shelving rack from home depot and 2 shelves that lock into the rack and well i cut the majority of the shelf off and just kept the end that locked into the rack and super glued them to the back of my power bar it was a bit of a pain but it works great for those minor light adjustments.

Default more pic by request
Pic 1: So here in pic on if my setup from the outside its your usual pc case with only one cord going in and it plugs into a surge protecter. dont need any fires.

Pic 2: Heres the front of my PC case it has a opening and closing face plate which allows me to check my temperature with ease and hides the light from the intake fan.

Pic 3: Again the front of my setup but alittle closer look at how perfectly my digi thermo sat right in the floppy disk drive slot

That's a very nice build on the case. With spring break starting now for me, I get to work on my own case. What are the internal dimensions of that case? Are you planning just to veg, then move outside for flowering, or are you planning to do the entire grow in there? If so, are you lst'ing?

Looking good so far, great job on the case. Word of advice, plan and implement your LST or SCROG sooner rather than later as it is a lot more hassle trying to wrestle with fully developed foliage and thick stems. Good luck.
