Yo guys, I came across an old Antec case. It's 17" Tall and 6"wide. I ripped it apart and cleaned it then I covered it in Tin foil. And some white paper too. I went out and got a home depot and got an 150W Med Socket, 4 100W CFLs and a socket Y splitter. I have Cotton Candy Kush and Critical Jack herer auto fems so I want to practice with some bag seeds I had saved before I try and grow my nice auto fems. I started germinating 5 in a paper towel then put then in a Styrofoam cup, cut 6 holes on the top and tossed it in the pc box for 2 days. This morning I checked on them and nothing, flushed them with water then put em back in the grow box for 12 hour with 2 of the CFLs running. And these were my results.
3 seeds cracked and 2 remain to bust. The water in the paper towel was a little warm but not too warm, I flushed them again with cooler water and then put them back into the box. Here's a few more pictures of the set up. I also need to get some fans as soon as I transplant the survivors!
I also found a seed in some dank skunk that I just put into germinate in a different kind of method than the 5 in the cup. For this one I put it in a moist paper towel then in ziplock back that I sliced about 15 holes into.
My box kinda glows which defeats the purpose of stealth grow, so I have it inside this BENQ monitor box that's give or take 24 inches tall and just about long enough to fix the case. (16")
Welp this is my cheap grow that I put together, hope it pulls through. thanks for reading peace
Update 1: Transplanted 3 of the cracked seeds like @past times suggested I should.
The one in the middle is the closest to the middle light but there's also one to the far right that gets plenty of light from the horizontal CFl.
There's the top view. The pot on the top is probably getting least amount of light but I'll do something about that eventually.
And cheers to a bowl of really good skunk!

Getting the light to hold
was tricky, but I figured
it out. Dental Floss<3
Word, well I just ordered the nicer timer. Only the best for my babies<3
Also, a little update. One of my seeds popped it's head out of the dirt and is starting to show some green. ^^ And the skunk seed I was germinating in the new method sprouted better than any of my other sprouts. I just planted him in the place of some other cracked seeds that just werent growing, going to try and germinate them a little more and then plant them. If nothing happens then I guess they are bad seeds or I did something wrong. But 2 so far are doing really well which is good for me.
