Sup GC, this is the start of my second grow. As the title says im growing in a pc case with a feminized ak48 seed. I know a lot of people would be wondering why but the thing is it is so hot in so cal i needed to continue to grow while being able to control the temps since i dont have ac. Now the plan is to veg for a good two weeks or so and by then the temps will hopefully have started to go down. if that happens ill take some clones off it and plant them in my five gal buckets in the cab i used for my first grow. The way im getting around the temps is that the lights dont come on until 8pm and then off by 2pm so its gonna grow during the coolest times. but right now im kinda tired but heres a few pics of what going on. i know my case needs more light proofing but ill be getting to that real soon. p's
definitely lst im trying to get the most i can off of it lol. i actually was hoping to get it as big as i can so i can take at least two clones off and grow in the 5 gal bucket i used on my first grow but its so hot in so cal right now i cant really regulate temps to much. yeah i just used a mid tower atx case, gutted it, lined it with reflective tape, put a 120mm fan for exhaust and a 90mm for intake. i have 2 6500k cfls and 1 2700k on a power strip. i got a little tupperware/storage box for my planter from target drilled some holes in the bottom and used its top as a tray. Then lined the outside of it with the same stuff as the inside of the case. Thats it. im using FFOF and Fox Farm nutes. Got more pics coming a lil bit later. P's

HOW MUSH THE LIGHTS COST YOU? I HAVE SOME OLD TALL TOWERS THAT I CAN USE IM GOING TO MAKE ONE ANDGIVE TO MY DAD FOR X-MAS I WOULD BE HAPPY WITH THAT GIFT.
hey, i was wondering if you have thought of those ufo led lights for this thing or similar?, they are slimline, they create next to no heat. not that ive used them before..... what are you room temps there? must be hot as hell.
[/QUOTE]HELLA COOL. HOW MUSH THE LIGHTS COST YOU? I HAVE SOME OLD TALL TOWERS THAT I CAN USE IM GOING TO MAKE ONE ANDGIVE TO MY DAD FOR X-MAS I WOULD BE HAPPY WITH THAT GIFT.[/QUOTE] there lights are like 6-7 bucks from target and that would be sweet gift. wish someone would have gave me mine. lol yeah i was thinking of a ufo led light but not in my pc case. plus they are way out of my price range right now. and since they hear in so cal is an issue i have my light set to come on at 8pm and go off at 2pm. That way the light are on when its the coolest and its only warm at the beginning and at the very end of the light cycle. so with the lights on at night the temps avg at 78-81F so its not that bad.
Hey man, you have checked out my thread and i am checking out yours now. thanx for the heads up with splitting them apart sooner than later. Are you just growing the one in the tupperware you have? Also what kind of a water schedule do you have going one for her? I also have some nutes for my baby however have not used any as of now and dont know if i want to use them. What kind of a nute schedule do you have. sorry for all the questions. its just looks like you are about 3-4days ahead of my plant so i think that we can help eachother a graet deal. anyways. stay stoned. W.
lol its all good if you dont ask youll never know. i feed my baby every two to three days. the lastest pics are from yesterday which is day 9 (Fri) from sprouting. i give it about 48oz of water per feeding. on thursday i gave it a really like dose of some veg nute (fox farm grow big) and it seemed to handle well at an early age. the reason why i gave it so early is because i am not able to veg that long cuz its root will build up way to much before it can finish flowering. im actually gonna switch the light schedule after it finishes two weeks of veg. any more questions let me know bro!! p's
Sup guys here are pics of day 12 just watered it yesterday with plain water. gonna be topping/fimming on wednesday (2 days from now), then switch to 12/12 on the 15th (sat). that would make 18 days of veg. p's
very nice and healthy looking babies!! have you topped them yet? if not right now would be the perfect time !!! check out my pc box thread with pictures..i saw gwiito's..looks like there are a few of us doing pc cases....they are super fun eh?!!!! cheers
Ya wow yours do look alot better than mine. I am going to get 2 more bulbs by tomorrow in hopes it will work the best of luck. your doing awesome with her. peace W.
