So I have been reading curiously on this fine site and have decided to share my project/experiment with all my peers.

I have a 8"dx18"wx20"t PC box that my brother has kept in his closet since I got it in computer repair class. So I gutted it, put tape on every hole going to the inside of the comp.(not before wiping it all down).

I took a reflective sun shade for a cars front window and cut them to fit in my PC box. I bought a 42w 6500k 4400 lumens CFL for lighting. I should add a 20w 2700k CFL aswell. I have a 5" fan pushing are out, and a 3" on pushing it but im not having it on at the moment. I have a mesh screen to keep bugs and dust from being sucked into the case behind the 3" fan.

I'm keeping my plants 2-3" from the 42w CFL. I only water them when the soil is getting fairly dry, (and it will wiegh less aswell).

I am using SCHULTZ 10-15-10 all purpuse plant food in concentrated liquid form.

this is days 1-4.


this is the PC.

just a heads-up - that schultz's plant food is insufficient for MJ. look out for Mg deficiency, as that food does not contain any. many moons ago i found that out the hard way.

lol, thanks man. I watered them with a light light amount of epson salts (2 times). so the soil should have a little for it to nibble on.

Currently on day 5:

I watered them today with filtered distilled24h water.

It now seems to me that plant number 3 is of a different species. it is stockier and the stems color is different then plant #1 & 2.

Sweet, glad you got this grow up. Is your case 100% stealth? Or is it out in the open?

oh ya. I put a little thin cardboard thing there, so now there is no light and no fan(visually).

EDIT: I have the cardboard thing "funneled" to my teamug, so I can chill on the forumz, watch my garden, And have my tea being cooled anytime im not sippin' on it!

My poor sativas first node is mising one 2ndary leaf. =( @ minor mutation)
