I am at my final decisions stage for building a PC grow box for my first grow. This is just for some personal smoke so no need for masses of weed, maybe just two plants at a time. So far I have got the following kit ideas and would appreciate any comments, advice or improvements!
PC case:
I have found two cases that seem to have nice fans on them. Are these enough? I'll have one extracting. Or should I just buy a basic case and put in other fans? I will put a carbon filter on too. I will make sure there are no light leaks as they have side windows. Would the 2nd case be better for the temp lcd's?

Lighting:
Due to bills etc (and using my girlfriends house!) I am going to try 4 x 24 watt cfl's. I thought these would be ok for a PC box? Should I use stronger cfl's? These will be attached with magnets to allow me to move the light strip around.
Seeds:
Think I will be trying a lowrider 2, will these plants fit in either of the above cases alright?
Any advice greatly appreciated!
