PC Plant - Experiment.

stonegrove · #1 01-16-2008, 11:11 AM

rightey oh.

Here it is the PC Plant experiment lol.
basically the PC case got gutted out and a 20Watt CFL stuck in and the extractor fan got hooked up to the mains output.

cuz of space it had to be laid flat, which is why this is an experiment fo me. i am going to try and make it grow sideways lol.

there are two bag seeds in there and they should be sprouting any day now.

Gonna add another 20Watt CFL when the plant is growing.

It is also being started in the 12/12 cycle. Thought about doing a 10/10 cycle but realised there would be alot of manual light changing etc so just stuck with 12/12.

the Light has an output of 1200 lumens. two would be 2400 that should be enough for inside a PC case right?

the bulb packaging says 'soft mood' is that O.K?

here are some pics of the setup.....lol its ghetto.

Any feedback would begreatly appreciated. ill keep you guys updated and will post pics as soon as she pops up.

p.c. grows seem like they would be tough, just due to the room and height restrictions. i have never done it so i dont really know for myself. like dude said maybe a few more lights and some training of the plant and it could work.

lol, its an experiment to see if it will work lol, ima try and grow it horizontally after it matures a lil.

I would be careful about that bro, the horizontal could be bad for your yeilds due to a lack of space and also could easily fck your plants up due to it growing up, considering there is such little room there, it could easily get hot spots. I would stick with the vertical until you find either a. a larger tower or b. use the SOG method with only one to two plants.
