Can I use an all USB grow box?

  1. I was thinking is it possible to have a grow box with no wiring...just USB? Like if I plug in a 5 port usb hub into the wall and than use fans and LED lights that are USB. Would that work?
     
  2. As long as you have enough light yes. BWarren93 actually started in a tiny computer case with little computer fans but he used cfl bulbs.
     
  3. I am only looking to start with one plant, would you recommend cfl or led?

    Never used led so can't compare them.
    Are you going to use a normal sized pc tower?
     
  5. Its a little bigger than a normal pc tower, but the plant cant go higher than 30 inches.
     
  6. Are you aware that USB is limited to 500 mw? USB is just not enough power.
