Just replying cuz I feel sorry no ones even answered you yet.300 people have looked at this so that's crazy.But yeah I'm in the same boat.I'm a noob too but from my research I think you need an hps light or big cfl's.You need to get educated on the light equivalency because its pretty confusing if you don't know.Also coco coir and good nutrients with some reflector paper taped around the walls.Just do some googling and I'm sure you'll find what you need to do.It sucks but you gotta do it.

You need a small florescent bulb and a computer fan(the square one) rockwool cubes and mylar or aluminum foil. if you got cash, you can get an L.E.D bulb setup.

Don't feel sorry. No advice is better than BS advice. Why would 300 people need to reply to each and every thread they read? The PC case grow is a particularly specialized and challenging one. I have no experience with a mini grow as that. However, I believe there is a PC grow on this very forum that produced something like two ounces. I hope you can find that thread. It was remarkable. I do believe they used a single cfl lamp and computer fan. That's about all I can remember. Finally, my advice is to look into who is giving the advice. If they haven't shown successful grows relevant to your type of application then take the advice with a gram of salt.

I can only grow in this small size and have been told I will still be able to crop, they also said if when the plants half the size I have switch light cycle to start flowering, is it right?

yup, I highly suggest you do what shovel said and look up the better PC box grows.
