never seen one of these built before
what type of strain and how many will you grow ??
as far as the setup, keep it basic
intake on the bottom, out take on the top.
i would try to get as many Cfl's in their as possible.
go to your sporting goods store, buy a Foil camping blanket line the inside with it.
( these also block heat from unwanted eye's in the sky, its a good tip to know if you ever plan on switching to Hps in the future* )

looking good, for lighting ur guna have to go with cfl either a main one at the top 150 -250w or a load of small ones, personally id prefer one large 150w.and ya have to pick your strain which obviously has to be an auto or a normal one on 12/12. id say go for an auto which one is up to you. i have a few snowryders in 5l pots and there doing great. but it depends on what you like, go through a seedbank and see what they have.
good luck

Hey man, if you are using these power supplies for the fans you only need a 12v and probably about 200-300ma for a 80mm fan.well its almost done i need A. a 24v power supply for both or B. 2 12V power supply these are 23=100watts apeace and they are veg CFLs... after i get the power supply i will start posting my grow
your case looks pretty good though, looking forward to the grow.

hay man never use the MG from walmart or whare ever the fuck u bought it, get fox farms and they have nutes that goes with the soil so u know u ok. I mean it will cost probly around 20-30$ but you will get at least 2 to 3 times as much as u did b4.
PS:that is why ur plants are only 13 inches-SOIL-NUTES

Hey man, you're well on your way. Good work. Just a few ideas for you though: you're gonna wanna make sure the fans and the pc are sterilized before you grow--to prevent disease and whatnot. Also, when you say you're doing LST does that mean you're gonna do a ScrOG grow? I've heard of significant increases in yield in pc grows--plus it helps w/ height control with the limited space. Also, one question: how tall is your box? I'm just starting a pc grow and i'm using a full tower (24"). Those extra few inches can be imperative. Good luck with your grow and i'm excited to see yields/pics along the way.

yout right on that..but i have had great outsomes with MG but i dont use MG during flowering but i was wondering if the plant needs N during flowering because i use monster bloom and its a 0-50-40
