Indoor Grow Guide

Here are some new photo's my plants. They have 2 to 3 weeks to go yet. And all are growing under 2 CFL's. They have a very skunky smell. I hope every one else like them. They are still flowering strong, I'm very tempted to let them go for it as long as I can. They're in my PC Case so I guess when it is filled I'll have to harvest. While I showing photo's here are some new pics of my pc grow case. The last 2 photo's are of the front intake with Srubninja's light trap design on the fan and then the carbon filter on the exhaust fan. I'm also experimenting with old CD and DVD's as reflectors since they reflect a full color spectrum. The light's are 2 23w/100w CFL's. It's basic but works good, it's my first one, it has works good enough that I'll make some improvments and using it and I'm going to make a bigger better one soon.

Ghostwolf, thats nuts man! How did they turn out?
Its all about the creativity..When I first started growing, I tried making a growbox out of a tupperware storage box. Had 4x23watts. Roasted some younglings within days, lol. Too small of an area! Not worth the headache imo, but fun to design hehe! You should look into a small stealth cabinet for your next grow. Go on craigslist or kijiji and buy a used dresser. Hollow it out. Mount the fronts of each drawer onto plywood. Put some hinges on cabinet to make a door! Add intake and exhaust, lights, flat-white paint, and your set!
Much props for getting some buds out of that PC grow! wow!

Well space is an issue and the pc case fit's my needs. The last grow I had a nutrient problem and the plants dwarfed on me so from three plants I got 15 dry grams. I have a new grow going in that case and also in another bigger pc case I made. And I'm sure I'll produce a bigger harvest this around, and I mean from the small one as well as the larger one. Venting is everything, the two 80mm pc fans in the small one keeps the temp at 85F so no worries there. Did you have any fans of any type pulling the hot air out as well as a open intake for cool air? My bigger pc case is 19"x17"x8" and uses a 120mm, a 90mm, fans for exhaust and a 60mm fan at the intake. And the plants are doing good. The inside temp is at 88F right now so I still have to dial in the air flow some more, but I already have that little problem solved with a more powerful exhaust fan. My smaller pc case that you see above is 16"x14"x7". Here is the new case with three 26w/100w CFL's I up graded this case as you can see it uses three power strips instead of an extension cord with two lights in it as well as a few other improvements. The first pc case was pretty basic and I made it for under $15.00, I already had a lot of the parts. Now here are some of the plants from the current grow in the new case. The small one down is a F1 hybrid from the last grow. This one on the left is another F1 from the last grow. This one is a nice bag seed that I just put into LST. So there you have it all here before you. You've asked me so I've shown you my results and you can decide for your self if it was worth it, but for me it is as I have no other way to get my meds. Good luck with your grow my friend.
