Hi all!
I'm new to the post but not new to reading up on all the useful information. Anyways I have a few questions about a pc grow case. I have been trying to figure out how to grow the best bud and am totally stoked about it! Ok so my set up is a Tower about 2 feet tall I gutted it installed 3 light fixtures and am planning on putting 3 CFL bulbs in there about 26 watt. The light is adjustable but will this be enough wattage to get a decent sized harvest? Also I heard you need a gallon for each foot of plant would it be so bad if I used a 4 qt container for each plant? (My plans are having two in there) I hooked up a pc fan for the exhaust and am still trying to find a good CHEAP source to get rid of the smell. I put foil for the sides to keep light from escaping and reflection any thoughts on this? Also with the pc fan its 12v dc and .25 amps so i got a 300 ma 12v dc transformer and installed it is this safe it seems to run quite fast and loud...Not to violently though and it ran lights and all for 30 mins yesterday without overheating and having any "fire" issues lol. Ok sorry for such a long post but one more thing I got 150 watt max flood light fixtures with a white and black wire coming out and hooked all 3 lights up with a wire nut for the wires running to a heavy duty extension cord that runs to a power strip inside the box along with the fan on the same strip. No bare wires or anything but does this sound safe the last thing I need is a fire. Again sorry so long but I appreciate and help and critique!!! THANKS! GOOD 2 JOIN!!!
