This is my second grow. First ever PC GROW BOX. That i built myself... seems cool so far, found the idea on here. So im trying it! Got some plant that were started outside and given to me. Im putting them inside for weather reasons and a few others.
Heres what i used: total cost: $150

1 antec mini PC tower 18x18x8
1 65watt CFL
3 13watt CFL
1 thermometor/humidity
2 120mm fan 1 intake/1 exhausts
1 140mm tri cool fan
1 milar windsheild cover
1 roll metal tape
1 black cardboard board (light traps)
2 packs of cat liter box carcoal filter
1 lock


I've ran it so far for 3 day with the lights on and it stays around 70-74 degrees inside (also depending on all the fan speeds)...

:clap:All right I just select harvested my buds off the purple plant... i know i know i shouldnt have just harvested the buds without the branches but there wasnt much buds on it so i wasnt to worried. Now im going to put it back in till it finishes a 18 hour day then kill the light for 6 hours and then back to 18/6 for her for a while.
2nd generation purp if she doesnt die! hoping i will be able to maybe clone some little ladies off her!
