hi everyone, ive decided i want my own plant because my habit is becoming to costly.

the case im using is 16.5 inches in height, 7 inches in width, and 15 inches long. Its a small case but i only need 1 plant.

so far ive purchased

-4 23w 6500 CFL
-4 24w 2300 CFL
-Power Strip
-1 120MM Fan
-2 80MM Fans
-Glue Gun
-Glue Sticks
-Adapter Sockets
-Car Reflectors
-Fan Controller( Controls the 3 fans speeds, tells tempature, has alarms etc)

My plan is to run the 3 fans with the PSU provided by connecting it to the fan controller and run the lighting with the power bar seperately. I will have the PSU plugged into the Power bar, and have the power bar cable running out of the box.

Im a complete newb and all advice is appreciated!

When u building your box? We'd like to see pics of it when she's all done up.
As far as advice goes start with: make sure you get your grow box set up before you germ your seeds. have it run for a day or 2 work the kinks out, make sure the temps are right, shit like that.
Good luck!!!
happy growing

Could you possibly go with a taller box? a cardboard box from U haul, Sterilite cabinet, ect.. My short riders were flowered at 6 inches, and still tripled in size. the larger the space the more you will enjoy the experience. I cant wait to see what you will come up with though.

Ill be sure to post pics once its finished. Im probably going to go with Lowryder #2 and use LST. I cant really afford to buy a new case :/. I plan to use some/sell some to pay for a new case and better materials and build a very large case capable of 3-4 plants. If anyone has suggestions towards the building of my case please tell!
