That's a ton of air movement for so few cfls! Should make the plants nice and strong :)

What wattage cfls are you using? Also they look to be 50k bulbs. Could be my eyes misleading me of course.

Got any seedlings yet?
if u know a reputable site thats decent price and quality seeds please pm me or w.e. thank you so much. im hooked on this grow box i have'nt even started growing and finishing up on my second box.

yelling across the room.. " Honey!!!!!!! I leave me alone i'm converting the pc power box to power al the accessories."

That's the only one I've ordered from so my experience is limited. I've heard at least a half a dozen names mentioned on this site. I would recommend finding a bunch of names on this site and then googling them to ensure quality.

Also the creator or the seeds is important. Some seed makers are awful and some are fucking amazing.

As always though buyer beware.

Yea it's raining like crazy out here in E.B.A. .. with a motorcycle it seems impossible to pick up on all the few items to complete the grow box. So after lunch at my favorite pub and a few trumer pills, the liquid courage has got me going.

PEEP my second pc grow box.

im thinking of blocking out the side panel maybe or just use a black limo tint.

all electrical have been hooked up to an atx pc power supply neatly.
one fan p[lanning to add two more both sucking one in front and one in back since the one in the middle blows crazy..

and one cfl is in the hooked to a strong magnet with teh smae adapter as the first one. magnet means the light got some wheels.. MORE DETAILED PICS LATER


p.s. feel free to hit me up

Ask AMV why my rep bar is red! He's a dickface! :) 'tis all good now.

I will be posting pics of my second grow once I get my pc case and seeds. My first grow is rather pathetic, relative to what I want.

My first batch of seedlings were all males. Out of eight. That's horrid luck. Only at day four but I can post a pic of them if you are really interested.
Yea lets see it, and your setup. My first lemon showed it's sex a few days ago. At 21 daYS OF 12/12 FROM SEED.

Will edit with pics once wifey's camera has enough juice in it then. Apparently she took mine instead of charging her own. I wonder if she'll charge mine when she's done with it? I doubt it!

It will (with enough +reps) go away eventually. I appreciate it though :) Not too worried about it.


Here are the pics. So I thought the battery was dead and that was why she took mine. Not the case. She broke hers. Huzzah for more spending! Anyway I had to use an old nikon coolpix 3200 I had stored away almost seven years ago now. Sorry for the shitty quality but it's better than nothing!










Like I said day four. Staying in this piece of shit until my case arrives and I modify it.

Now you tell me! I paid less than fifty bucks with shipping for one with two 80mm fans, one 120mm fan, a psu ( i only need the backplate so paying for one seemed silly) and a temp monitor. Not a bad deal at all!

I plan on making this growcase very specialized. I like building shit so should be a fun endeavor.

You wired the front mounted buttons? Did you use an actual psu? Four fans?! You have some good fucking airflow! I was going to use three. Two output and one intake.

Those fans are loud.... If you mount another one on the other side panel im sure you'd have mad suction power.. i found some nice ones that i can later put into my next box.. the laptop fans for 3 dollars..
They throw those psu's away at electronic recycling centers.. find one in ur local area.. yes i did use atx one to power the accessories, with a quick google diagram & color code help i was able to link a few wires and power on power of. the lighting was powered to the psu after i spliced a few wires inside the box enabling the main power cable to give off volts required to maximize lighting without the getto do it urself look that we've all seen. neatness is the "key"

Hey, do u live by a home depot? they sell a power supply thats small and compact called " transformer" check it out its nice and small should be enough for ur fan and lights since cfl's font require much.

B F'n careful .. lil zap should put hair on ur chest..

i also got a few of the homies to hook it up with items from work (manufacture new technology fridges that no longer require something i forget. ). so i requested a tiny bit of stuff like white fridge insulator that could help with the temp and reflect lighting, since we are entering winter. few electrical wire protective sleeves to help with tidying things up for secure connection and shortage's. Switches that will be spliced and mounted to extra buttons on pc face that will control fan speed, enabling more or less vacuum, better humidity control. wire splicers, for options like , l.e.d's mini hydro or micro hydro pumps. slim tubings that will fit into the face so i could build a real micro hydroponic system with it flowing to two plants. also fridge grill like trays with magnetic mounts to move up and down in the box, catering to my plants needs as it grows and cures in her new home...

I'm gonna take apart the backing with the optional drivers ( the stenciled aluminum that light can show through) so they could water jet an exact piece so i could block lighting, and a cut out of the bottom pc so i can mount the tubings under for hydro without sacraficing the looks and stealth..

so far 2nd box cost total 30 bucks....

" If anybody finds temp gauge lcd for gaming towers let me know please that would be SICK" think its called thermoltake


I'll post detailed pix. model numbers, cheap supply link later...

Bagseed germinated for almost 3 weeks in a paper towel in a ziplock that I found after discovering EVERY plant from my first germination was male :( Why waste em?

Same container is really just laziness coupled with a lack of motivation to give a shit about them. Waiting for my real seeds to show up :)
