Sorry if the pics arent that good used a mobil phone Camera

Okay, so lets cover a few things here man.

1. Your mobile phone camera is better than 99% of the pictures I've seen around here..probably not done from a mobile.

2. This is the first PC Stealth grow I've seen that I've liked. Temperatures? What do you plan on doing for flowering?

wow thats the best darn phone camera pics Ive ever seen! your little plant looks very healthy. HOw old is it? Peace

5 weeks old

Hey, wont an HPS be way too hot for that small space?

IM probably going to have it vent out for the light but if it is to hot ill just change out my fluorescent to yellow fluorescent for budding

Wait, what bulbs do you have right now?
If you could get a 3 bulb bathroom light fixture you can get Y split adapters so that you can put 6 42Watt 2700k CFLs for flowering and get massive buds since its so many lumens in such a small space

wow the best pc grow box that is practicle!

i just was out and bought 2 y splitters and have 4 lights right now
but i might get the bathroom fixture. im just looking if it would work and get buds out of it. this is just a trial and if it works my next grow would be a whole lot better with more light and better vents this right now is my first grow ever and im just trying my luck and seeing if im good at it.

HID's are VERY hot. You will need to create at least 1.5' away from the light. I'd get a very low wattage light bulb too. Don't spend money on something you might not necessarily need or be able to use.

soo i guess i wont use it ill just do what coolman1a said to do and i think it should work out fine.

They look very nice and healthy, since your growing in a pc case I really recommend getting the last 2 42Watt 2700k and flowering ASAP, they double or triple in size, also you might want to look into LST to maximize your growing space and you wont be sorry for spending a little extra money on those 2 bulbs, I gurantee it

Well I dont know the wattage of ur lights but u should get all 6 bulbs 42W 2700k CFLs for flowering

I would have flowered around half that size. You're gonna run out of room FAST. What type of vent are you using? I'm suprised you were able to keep the temps down. And is that tin foil I see?

use taht scrog method or w/e ppl call it were u put a net above the plants so the plant grows around the net, this may help with the height of plant, allowing the hids. i may be wrong, but im throwing my opininion out there to help spark other opinions or help

iam going to start flowering tommaro and i have 4 23 watt 1100 lumens daylight CFL Bulbs but the venting i have is 3 Cpu Fans Going on and i leave the Door an inch open so some more heat can come out.


Wow Based on the comments looks like im doing pretty well for my first grow

yes its foil

Creates burn spots like crazy, I'd get that stuff outta there. But just my opinion.
