Auto Berry Ryder PC Grow Journal

Hey guys,
I'm pretty new to the forum but i have been on here alot recently. I decided to save me some money and start growing my own smoke! After much deliberation and research, i noticed i had some old pc cases laying around my house, so after i collected up the necessary material, i created my pc stealth growcase.(Semi) I spent less than 100$ on everything including the seeds, so i'm hoping to get my moneys and time worth. I am going to be posting my progress on this forum and any advice would be very helpful.

My specs.

PC tower case 19.00" x 8.00" x 21.25
2 60w CFL 825 lumens=1650 Lumens
1 120mm intake fan
1 120mm outtake fan
Carbon Air Filter on outtake fan
homemade Scrog for LST made out of chopsticks
Thermomoter and Humidity Meter
Pot
Miracle-Gro Moisture Control Potting Mix-Contains Sphagnum Peat moss, Perlites, Coir Pith Fiber
Female Auto Seeds Berry Ryder

My seeds are a low ryder cross, named Berry Ryder(https://www.cannabis-seeds-bank.co.uk/auto-seeds-berry-ryder/prod_3401.html), I am thinking if i LST early and Often, size of the case shouldn't be an issue.

I Will be germinating my seeds today so i look forward to sharing my experience with you.

Good luck man. I just got 3 fem berry ryders from attitude recently and am browsing around threads before I begin. I'll be keeping an eye on yours so god speed. Also, why such a small enclosure? I know these ladies typically are small but yikes that's a tight space.

Never understood PC grows but I've seen them beautifully done. I'm of the mindset of that space is way too small. Are you only growing 1 plant? Cuz I would prob just fim and last them to get 3 or more larger colas. I just don't know about the space for the SCROG. But hey I'm always looking for fun grows so I'll def be following this one..

P.s. don't get discouraged by ppl not commenting. You'll get hundreds of views a day sometimes, just some ppl don't like cfl grows, soil grows stuff like that. You'll get some good help just from a few ppl instead of the hundreds your expecting. And trust me that's better!

Thanks for the support guys, here is a small update, we are on day 13 since sprouting. i increased the wattage to 270W and i added in a blue CFL in hopes of increasing vegetation(i have a red one for flowering). i just ordered my nutrients and they should be here soon. any idea if i should start LSTing yet? plant looks like it is getting to the right size, dont know how much longer i should wait. How does the plant look to you guys? temp stays around 78F during day cycle, with temps in the low 70's to high 60's in the nights. i water every 3 days and mist usually 1-2 times a day to keep plant happy. Any recommendationsfor the first timer? Thanks!

should i start training?

I think she looks pretty. I am not sure about when to start LST because the enclosure size hurts my head. However, I would go real easy with the nutrients. What type of soil are you using? Also, what is the humidity in that? looks good mayne.

You might be more successful by maxi-cropping, or removing the top shoot. However, I am not sure how that affects autoflowers, if any differently. I don't imagine it would. Anyway, good luck.

i heard that autos do not like topping, currently my box is running around 35-45% humidity.

Gotcha, Im popping 2 berry ryders now. Keep the pics coming.

First timer here. Just germed my berry ryder. Idk much but she looks good to me. Keep me posted.

Would love to see how these finished up. Anyone have any experience with ABR? I am growing 5 right now. 34 days in and they are flowering like crazy. I am a little worried about yield and hoping they pack on weight in the last month.

Grow closest. 3x4x8
light: 400watt HPS
Exhaust: 435 CFM Hurricane Exhaust
Medium: Sunshine organic grow mix
