Can you get decent results with with them?
squeezing a potentially 10-foot plant into a foot and a half ? ... what results would you expect ? ... you'll be taking serious legal risks for a 'next-to-nothing' yield ... :twocents:
Dont be sarcastic
I dont need much i only smoke a little bit, a few joints every few weeks.
The only bud i can get now is just a bit of average toot.
if you lst 2 plants in there 12/12 from clone or seed you could get about an ounce or a little over
greenatik shows how to do one clone in a pc case and got an ounce oout of it and it turned out bomb as hell

chances are youll get about an 8th
youd have better luck just buyin the 8th
You're mistaking reality for sarcasm. And the warning he gave you about penalty VS. payoff is right on point.Quote:

Just my 2 cents.

I was wondering the exact same thing?! too bad the PC sounds like a bad idea. If i were you i would take the next step-up. I hear that they sell a "mini-fridge" and it is a slightly larger grow box. And it is also very expensive, but if you have the money more power to ya. Good luck with your grow

now yes there are a lot of variables, but the point is that the man doesnt smoke alot. and definately doesnt need anything much larger than a pc grow. :jointsmile:
i did read the post. That's how i was able to address topics specifically discussed in the OP post. All i was saying is that it's a pretty big risk for something that may not even work out. I then suggested a slightly bigger cabinet that may have a better chance of producing even a small amount.Quote:

but thanks anyways.

i myself
am stuck in the same
problem
i emptied my old pc out
and put a light in it
and plan on gorwin some little plants
but i dont know
how to light them
so they dont get above 2 ft
and still bud?
any help?????
Ps...A SPEAKER CABINET???
im curious about that?
i'm gonna have to disagree at least in theory. you do some things with plants. LST and ScROG anyone. i've got a grow going that is a box not much bigger than a PC case (~26" tall). this is my first grow, so i can't comment on yield as of yet. but my plants are small and very bushy (LST). you can check the log in the sig. to check it out. i keep it updated regularly. i'm not trying to pimp my thread, but i'm just letting you guys know that there are some similarities that some might be interested in following.
on a different but same not, i will be building a PC case for someone (on these boards, that has been sworn to a grow log). it is to be built with stealth as the number one conern. someone linked to the mr. nice grow (or whatever his name is) on myspace that sells the PC setups for $300, so the challenge was to build one as good or better for less. the factors are:
-PC case that locks(obviously)
-digital therm/hydr.
-timer
-lighting (CFLs, 4x2700K, 4x6500K)
-cooling
-odor control (might be done by end user)
-adjustable screen (for ScROG)
i think that was it. it'll all be in good fun. maybe we can finally inject some facts into this debate.
anyone interested in doing a speaker cabinet?
what about using lowrider (w/LST or ScROG as well?) maybe something like lowryder #2 x AK47?
"This is an f1 cross between a Lowryder #2 and an automatic AK47 in which the two parents strongly exhibit their best genetic traits: high resin production, the fruity aroma (of a carefully selected Lowryder #2 phenotype), and the size and branching of the AK47 automatic.
This poly-hybrid is fully auto-flowering and matures in 70-75 days from germination, reaching optimal size if given enough light (intensity and time). The best conditions are 20 hours of light and 4 of dark during the entire cycle. Outdoors the best time is may-august, but it's easy to do multiple cycles per season, until November."
production is said to be 28-42 grams. could be something done for fun as well?
if that's all slowlow can do, then damnit do it to the best of your pc case growing ability!

that's what i'm talking about! :thumbsup:Quote:

btw, im the one who posted the link to the myspace acct.
and for anyone who would like to do some more research on the pc grow case, as you can tell it's not much of a hot topic here at canncom, you can go over to ic mag forums. they have quite a few pc grow logs going over there. :jointsmile:
edit: just notice that you are also from TX headshake. could be neighbors;) are you apart of your local norml/texas norml?
i'm up north. you? no, but i need to join!!! i suppose the website is the best place to do that?Quote:

Actually
in 2 weeks
i figured my pc grow box wont work
because yeild factors.
IM a greedy basterd pretty much
haha'
so we are going to design a speaker grow box
ill post pics and blue prints when we get to that point
awesome drc! just what we need!
i look forward to it!

yeah, i'm also from up north. but not panhandle north. we just might be neighbors. :rastasmoke:Quote:

i'd like to hear what you're plans are with this bad boy as you go along. hopefully some other more intelligent folks will chime in here and we might be able to help.
:woohoo:
edit: why can we not send pm's on this board? maybe i'm just blind but i can't find a way to message people on this board.
i'm in dallas king.
i was thinking about the vertical lights. a small HPS might work. i don't have much experience with them so i'd have to test it out. i definitely think that it could be a good approach though, with some tweaking of course!
more intellect would be nice. i mean everyone can't go big, so why not research how a good portion of the board probably grows.
-shake
hey that's cool. im in the dallas area too.
the HPS was just a dream i was picturing when you said vertical. haha.
but what were you thinking of running vertically? maybe you could run a couple of these vertically 125W Sunblaster 6400K CFL Bulbs | Residential/Commercial Energy Saving Lights
oh and DFWNorm'l is having a Frisbee Golf Tournament in Arlington. if you would like to attend i could send you a link with more info on it.
anything new on this, headshake?
sorry king, this damn website i'm doing is taking up way too much time. i'm down with the normal. i don't know if i'll make the tourney. i definitely need to join though. and i'm gonna check into those lights. i've got a few things working in my noggin!
