That's half the interior of my closet. My aquarium "veg room" is 18"D x 12"W x 36"H. So I'm used to working in small places. You can fit 1 plant in there easilly, mebbe 2. But it'll be tight w/2. Very tight. Ventilation & heat dissipation will be a major issue inside a sealed PC case.

Any CFL combo that will put out at least 6000 lumens in the correct spectra. In my mind, I would not do less than 2 x 40W 2700K CFL. Or if you can find a single that'll put out 6000L.

When you feel it's time, just switch to 12/12. Forget the gradual stuff.

How much bud do you think I could get out of this grow, and how long do you think it will take?

What strain do you recomend for this grow?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
LOL (takes a deep breath) LST and/or ScrOG... 1 to 2 oz/plant, if you're good. BUT! If this is your first grow, and you're attempting something at this level of complexity, I predict an early demise for your plant(s) ... anywhere from 90-120 days... lemon skunk, or other small indica.
Volker Reviewed by Volker on . Big Project Well, this is going to be a big project - atleast for me. Basicly, I am going to combine 2 computer cases into one, make them sound proof, and make it impossible to detect light coming from the inside. I have a few questions though. The combined case is going to be 18" x 15-16" x 26" .
