never seen one of these built before

what type of strain and how many will you grow ??

as far as the setup, keep it basic

intake on the bottom, out take on the top.

i would try to get as many Cfl's in their as possible.

go to your sporting goods store, buy a Foil camping blanket line the inside with it.
( these also block heat from unwanted eye's in the sky, its a good tip to know if you ever plan on switching to Hps in the future* )

looking good, for lighting ur guna have to go with cfl either a main one at the top 150 -250w or a load of small ones, personally id prefer one large 150w.and ya have to pick your strain which obviously has to be an auto or a normal one on 12/12. id say go for an auto which one is up to you. i have a few snowryders in 5l pots and there doing great. but it depends on what you like, go through a seedbank and see what they have.
good luck

well thats not true i dont nned a auto flowering i will use bagseed and flower at 6 to 8 In the PC tower is almost 2 foot tall
i uae card board to line with alot of coats of white paint i will be useing 3 32watt=100W CFLs and i am lining the top of it with a refector for a car windsheild i am going to post more pics

i would definitely use auto flower. you will know the sex within 2 weeks, and harvest in about 7-10 from seed.

see i am a lil tight on money so i dont have 40 bucks for seeds i use bagseed and the last time i grew i had 2 plants one male one female from bagseed and it flowered out at 6 in when it got done it was only 13in tall... and if not ill beened the steams and tie it down.. i am not in a hurry to get bud.. good things come with waiting

well its almost done i need A. a 24v power supply for both or B. 2 12V power supply these are 23=100watts apeace and they are veg CFLs... after i get the power supply i will start posting my grow

very nice man.. sounds like you know what your doing to not need the auto flowers.. cant wait to see how it turns out

one nifty idea to do to keep temps down inside is put the ballast of the bulb outside the actual PC case. ( Ruins the stealth ) but makes it still a small and effective grow chamber. KNow someone personally who harvested an ounce and a bit off this with 1 plant inside.

well i am growing to plants i hope both female i am goibng to the LST low stress training i will be flowering at 5 to 6 in
i use Mg soil for flowering plants i have great turn outs with that soil and i have never had a bug problam with that soil

Hey man, if you are using these power supplies for the fans you only need a 12v and probably about 200-300ma for a 80mm fan.

your case looks pretty good though, looking forward to the grow.

rite on BB ill be watchin

you motivated me to make a box

its not 100% finished yet, it will be 2marrow.

here's what i got so far.
( i needed some where to put my clones im hoping its not to hot in their )

well you should not use foil.... try white paint or a refecltor for car winsheild works great looking good what strain is your plants

yep tottally agree on no foil it causes hot spots even with cfls , i also use car windshield reflectors or you can go with mylar( cheap substitute is the shiny wrapping paper at dollar store) lol well glad to see someone else also givin the pcs a go

i even hurd that mylar can casue hot spots. i like to use white paint seems to work very well ... remember that foil and mylar causes hot spots...

hay man never use the MG from walmart or whare ever the fuck u bought it, get fox farms and they have nutes that goes with the soil so u know u ok. I mean it will cost probly around 20-30$ but you will get at least 2 to 3 times as much as u did b4.

PS:that is why ur plants are only 13 inches-SOIL-NUTES

Hey man, you're well on your way. Good work. Just a few ideas for you though: you're gonna wanna make sure the fans and the pc are sterilized before you grow--to prevent disease and whatnot. Also, when you say you're doing LST does that mean you're gonna do a ScrOG grow? I've heard of significant increases in yield in pc grows--plus it helps w/ height control with the limited space. Also, one question: how tall is your box? I'm just starting a pc grow and i'm using a full tower (24"). Those extra few inches can be imperative. Good luck with your grow and i'm excited to see yields/pics along the way.

MG does perfectly fine if you traet it rite its real finicky with nutes and watering schedules ..... but yes fox farms is better due to the higher quality stuff hence the 20 to 30 instead of 4 to 10 MG yo cant expect a miata to beat a ferrari

yout right on that..but i have had great outsomes with MG but i dont use MG during flowering but i was wondering if the plant needs N during flowering because i use monster bloom and its a 0-50-40
