The PC Grow Box Challenge!

haha this looks fun, i have some small plants in a speaker cab. a tad bigger than a pc tho. i'll be watching this for sure, im interested to see the buds

i started a cfl grow in a SUPER stealth place. the dimensions are about 3x1x2 ft. I have 7 plants sprouted and veg'ed for almost a week now and theyre all looking great so far. Ill probably be using LST on half and FIM'ing the other half. And im only going to veg for 2-3 weeks, depending on how fast they grow. In the end the plants will probably only be 1-1.5 ft. I'll start up a grow journal whenever i invest in a new digital camera. And Im sure growing in a pc tower can be done, you just have to know what youre doing

I'm new to growing and i don't know much. Can anybody tell me if they think it would be possible to grow bud well in a 3.5x1x1 ft. speaker. Also me and my friend had an idea of building a "tv stand" that we could grow in.

It is definately possible you will just get a much smaller yield growing in a speaker. Check out my Homemade Cost Efficient growbox in my previous threads and you'll see that it is quite simple to grow bud in a tv stand.

i am going to grow for teh first time so i have been reading how to for the past year or so and i came across teh Pc grow box and i was wondering.. isnt it to small to grow in there?? does anyone know the yield posibilities in them? and what kind of seeds would be teh best for this

i have never actually done it myself. the size restrictions make it tough but i think it can be done. i have checked a couple different forums for p.c. grows and only seen a couple of complete grows. they never had more than like a quarter oz for a harvest though.

Using some advanced techinques I'm quite positive you could get at least an ounce. If you started one plant from 12/12 and did a SCRoG, you could easily get an ounce with a 125w or 2 42w bulbs.

Yes you can grow, but the yield is so low its not really worth it. I think at most 10gs is more realistic than 1 ounce...

I would put money on being able to scrog one plant in a pc grow box with a yield of over 1/2 ounce. If it had an extra pc tower I would start the challenge today.

half an O is different from a full O, either way im still saying no more than 10, at least first try or two you wouldnt get more.
Id take the bet..

i am taking it right now, but i am not using a pc case, i am using a VERY small mini fridge, like one of those cheap ones on ebay. its 13 inches total height, i am lsting from birth in 12/12. i am using 2 40w cfl. 2 fans and a whole lot of luck.

i was gonna say the same thing, a half o is a lot different than a whole oz. i think it would be great if someone could grow a oz in a regular pc case but i think it will be difficult to yeild more than a quarter oz. i have been proven wrong before so who knows.

Until I can find an extra pc tower, I've decided to build a box replicating the dimensions of my working tower to prove that you can grow at least a half oz to a full oz inside a pc tower. As soon as I finish constructing the setup, I will start a grow journal for it.

420greenthumb420 how much do u get from a harvest with your pc grow box? I just bought the hgh stealth pc box that holds 1to3 plants cant wait to use it. is it worth the money? r u getting a couple pounds each time u grow? write me back pz

wow...yall be spending hella money for some shit yall could do yourselves....

yeah i spent very little for my grow, free pc case, 3 2$ light sockets, free extension cord, 3 40w cfl 25$.. plastic cups, free soil, and some electrical know-how

no, i mean the premade setups/systems!

Yeah there really isn't much sense in buying a brand new premade pc stealth grow when you can make your own for about 1/10 of the cost, but to each their own I guess.

i mean im not knocking or anything.... but i went to a link for a pc stealth box...

man they wanted like $900-1600 bucks

like WTF!!!

for that money....you could find your OWN tower and trick it out with ALL THE high tech gadgets and still come out cheaper!

I shit you not, mine cost maybe $50. Most of that was for bulbs... https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/49052-5-weeks-counting.html
$900-1600, I'd just take the money and buy a pound...
