ne input?

im actually going to do the same thing...you have given me some good ideas though....so far i gutted my comp but cant seem to take out the motherboard without the fans not working...also what plant do you plan on growing? i was thinking lowryder 2 or lorider since they are small plants...will post pics soon

good idea with the sunshade also...but i was also thinking that i would just put the sunshade on top where the lights are and put mylar on the sides due to the plant possibly burning because of the high reflectivity...you gotta tell me how you wired the fans and such btw lol i cant figure it out

I got a old AC adapter and cut off the end and used it for power. I'm going to start a new journal since i've done alot of updates since I posted this...

here's a pic of how i wired my fans.

oOo smart...didnt think of that..yea keep me posted im probably going to base my box on yours..how are your plants btw?

thats a nice little setup, some good ideas for sure. are you going to flower in there as well?

I was thinking about that and I might go to a pawn shop and see if they have any old speakers, or cabinets I could maybe setup for the rest of the stage, but for now, yes I'm going to flower in there.
