I recently made one of those computer case grow boxes and wanted to know if a 125w envirolite is enough to grow one or two small plants...I realize its not really worth, I just wanted a hobby. The dimensions of the grow box are 17" x 17" x 8"

50 watts a square foot, if the spectrum is ideal, can grow killer pot.

I'm using the 125 envirolite and have before. Got just over an ounce dry and it was well better than the bud i was buying.

Give it a go.

It can only fail? But with all the advice on this forum it will be fine.

Which spectrum did you get, i just bought the Red spectrum version and now i feel pissed, because red spectrum is for flowering plants..Right? would the weed still grow? Baring in mind i have a few other cfls, but im going to plant some lowryder 2 seeds and ive heard the Vegetation stage which likes the blue spectrum is a big part of the lowryders lyfecycle and has any one sucessfully grow ganj with just red spectrum, any info on this would be appriciated :DREEFA

u can still grow with 2700k red spectrum.

im in a hurry so just put them straight to flowering.

i think its mainly the light cycle that determines veg and flower. ofc the plants like blue in veg and red in flower but buy the red if any.

i just bought a 250W blue spectrum enviro, however i tested it in my room with a fan and was getting temps of around 90 and so need to build a grow box, plan to have 2 inline fans with a couple of pc extract fans near the top of the box, do you think this would lower the temperatures enough to maintain it around 76?? also the whole box covered in mylar. any comments please!!

I am also germinating 6 Church fem seeds and currently have 3 that have broken through the shell potted. :joint::peace:
