As a first time grower i have few question to ask..
So here we go:

1) Im trying to grow in a PC case, which is 20cm wide, 37cm horizontally and height is 38cm. Is this possible to get anything from small growbox like this?
2) Can i use aluminium foil inside growbox?
3) Should i start with 12/12 or 18/6 cycle?

I also have 2 fans installed, bottom one is outtake and upper intake. I havent bought a light yet, should it be CFL light and how many watts? Im only planning to grow 1 plant.

Don't use aluminum foil. It causes hot spots.It would be better to paint the inside of the case flat white.

Exhaust should be at the top. Heat rises. I prefer a passive intake. You will need to think about odor control.

You will need a minimum of 40 watts for that area, more would be better [ If you can control the heat].

That is a tiny little space your dealing with there... are you dead set on this computer box or can you possible use something else? You'll want to train the plant to stay low and fill out what space you have, you could build a small screen about 10cm above the dirt level and weave your stems through it until the box is full (search "scrog" for a full explanation). As far as lighting the more the better as long as you can keep the temp below 80 degrees, you can get a 125 watt CFL for $25 online. If your on a budget check out organic growing because you can get most of your supplies for free or cheap. Hope this helps
