lol for sure, I'll be upgrading to a bigger grow at some point, but will still use this PC for a mother plant or something..

I hear ya, just found out my cousin's husband and his uncle grow not to long ago. They have white widow and skunk #2, so I thought about seeing if I couldn't get a clone or 2 off them.. But the setup I'm thinking of for the future when I get moved into a bigger place, is running 2 x 150w HPS lamps in the flower chamber and then just run CFL's in the veg and CFL's in the mother box.. my plan is to grow like 6 plants 2 in veg and 4 in flower, 2 sets of 2 in flower both at different stages, kind of like a perpetual grow. So veg 2 plants for a month put to flower veg 2 more for a month put to flower and hopefully if all goes well can harvest 2 plants every month after the grow starts... Thats the plan for the future lol, sorry I'm high and tend to ramble haha.. bongsmilie

not micro prolly not no but it will still be a small scale stealth grow, I will probably keep the pc to keep a mother or 2 in.. But the goal for growing is to never have to buy pot again :) and I'm thinking hps for the flower to get them nice thick buds.. Will still LST to get that increased yields as I will still be vegging with CFL's...

For sure I understand, I'm doing a pc case grow now only due to living arrangements but once me and the wife get into a bigger place I will be building bigger boxes.. :bigjoint: It will still all be stealth but on a little bit bigger scale.. Hell I might not do the hps but I definatly want a flower box, veg box, mother box, and eventually a males box to do a bit of breeding..

How often are you watering? I can't believe it, you don't use any nutes but your plant looks way healthier and more powerful than most of the plants I have seen. The soil must be worth all its money :). You use foxfarm soil right?

I just spent all day building my new "box" :) Completely stealth besides the 265 cfm exhaust fan haha... I'm still working on it but I got it all framed out and all the lights hung Now I just have to put the Visquine plastic up when my girls wake up and I'm good to go!!

Hell yeah Treez you have to post some pics of the new box. I'm in the planning stages of building a new box myself but I won't have the $$ to build anything until after the holidays.

Well done MoNkO...im loving you grow. Very encouraging. I just did a little LST myself this morning and got ambitious to the point where on of the newer tops broke :o(. I took her and put her right into some new soil..lol.

I guess Im cloning now. I hit her with some nutes and I am hoping it survives. Time will tell. My grow doesnt look near at full as yours, healthy but not going to be as big a yield. My plant stayed short and squat. She has many side shoots though.

Yea I understand that much...just needed to know what happens if you accidentally wire a DC fan to an AC power supply. Basically I have a power supply that doesn't say if it's AC or DC but it spins the fans so can I use it???

Will do! I have some up in my KK thread already right when I was framing it out. I just finished it today, now I'm just working with temps :)

I'll be updating everything soon with more pics so come by and take a look later tonight or tomorrow! Its soooo much nicer already!

I water when the pot feels at its dry weight so about every 2-3 days.. and yes not nutes other then whats in Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil..

Awesome TreeZ, I know the exhaust I plan on using on this box I'm thinking about is gonna be awesome so I won't have to worry about temps to much.. It will be 4 fans but equal about 500cfm just mount them all in a square and its like 1 big fan :). I'll stop by in a bit and check it out..

Yeah I think I counted like damn near 20 tops the other day.. the center tops are stretched due to how far they were away from the lights compared to the other tops..

Hey if anyone here knows much about PC Fan wiring...could you take a look at my thread and try to help me out...i'm in a bit of a pickle. THANKS!! https://www.rollitup.org/cfl-growing/391752-wiring-dc-fan-ac-power.html

Don't mean to interfere with this thread...it just seems like you all might know the answer to my question. Thank you.

When wiring a pc fan you just need an adapter with the DC output volts of what you need and able to handle the amps that all fans are trying to use..

I hear that TreeZ those fans I'm looking at using are 92mm 119cfm fans and are only 13 USD.. Run 4 fans and get almost 480cfm for like 52 USD not bad compared to some of the other exhaust fans I've seen..

Hey all I didn't get a chance to post any pictures yesturday but the lady was looking good..

Today I decided to prune the growth under the canopy since it was underdeveloped and dieing anyways.. After I did this I also did some LST to the center tops trying to get them all spread out to get all the tops even light..

Took a couple pictures let me know what you all think bongsmilie
