first things come to my mind:
- nutrients (veg + bloom)
- ph tester for your soil
- thermometer + igrometer
- odour control of some kind
- a warm (2700k) CFL bulbs set for flower if those you have are blue (6500k), or the other way around
- strings to LST (low stress training - shall google be your friend if you're not familiar) your plants since your grow space is limited

c ya mate

woot first one to break the seal... a little further away from where i hat out her but not going to mess with her yet ... maybe i will maybe i wont

subd up! ill b watchin

woot they both popped up and are starting to grow.. shouldn't be long now till its full of green

party on

Nice case bk. Good luck with the plants.

thanks v12... ur case was actually a great template sort of.... although urs is better now im workin on getting mine to be the very best... gotta GET RID of the cardboards an automotive ducttape... but anyway im also thinkin of throwing in some little paper pots that my friend makes just with some bag seed for fun

well heres a pic update... slow and steady wins the race

ok so i got another fan put in the case and i have started the girls on a small nute regimen have pics from a few days back

Hey bk. It looks a bit warm and a bit bright for such young plants, they also seem to like high humidity levels at that age so maybe think about raising the lights an inch or 2 and putting a cup of water in there just to help them along.

the plants seem to be exploding with growth from the small amount of nutes and the fan... and i switched out 3 of the bulbs with 6000k lights.... but the is a slight problem.... the temp in my case seems to get pretty hot at the peak of "daytime" i neeed advice on how to get them lower... i know i need an intake fan plan on getting that on payday... and i need to find a drill so i can mount the red fan somewhere on the sides....will get the photos up later

bump update

looks like a pretty nice starter set up! Have you got some other lighted location to put them when they outgrow that little computer case?

Lookin good dude

If it gets hot at the peak of daytime then use that as lights out time if you can. You don't need to deal with it at all then.
I run 12/12 from 9pm to 9am winter and 10pm to 10am summer. Works for me.

well i cut a intake hole that is right next to the red fan for now and it helped a little also been lst-ing them for a few days now and some nuggets i picked up

nice grow man im subd.

I'm loving those pots you have. How many litres are they and where did you get them?

very nice man how do you like cfl growing ? i loveit
