PC Grow: 1st Grow

[Brodieman]

Well after being a member and reading this forum for the past year I can finally start posting. I built a small grow cab out of my old PC. Pics coming soon.

Specifications:
Fox Farm Ocean Forest Soil & Big Bloom nutrients
2 x 25 watt 2700k Soft White CFL
120mm intake fan & 2 x 80mm outtake fans
74*F night - 79*F Day 12/12 light cycle

Germinated one bag seed and planted in a 1 liter pot. So far after day 2 already have a nice little gal poking out of the soil. I know I only used one seed and hoping for the best. The bag it came from was some good bud. All I can really do right now is wait for sex.

(PICS COMING SOON)

Just wondering how often other people may water their plants in a 1 liter container? I'm thinking it should be around every 2 days roughly, comments.

Day 4 and I've fed this little gal twice, and she's about 1 inch out of the soil. Think I'm gonna start using the big bloom in a week. Here are 2 pics right now. There not the best quality, taken from iphone. Just wanted to get something up so you guys have a picture of what I'm messing with.

Depending on the throughput CFM's you may wish to take out the intake fan.

I water my girl every few days or so. Sometimes I water her every day, it depends on the climate in the utility room. Usually keep the window open in there.

Good start there champ

Very nice bro. Can you get some flat white paint on the walls, or mylar or something? Best of luck.

The pics I put up you can't really see it but I put mylar on the inside walls of the case.

Good luck to you sir, I'm rebuilding my pc right now.


When it's that small, it's not going to be drinking much water. Just check the soil once in a while.

I also suggest either sometime soon or before your next grow removing the mounts for the hard drive and such. Also whats with the power supply just hangin out in there?

I just took a nice fan out of my old power supply

 

[Brodieman]

I ripped out some metal from the case but kept the drive holder there to keep the power supply on it. I use the power supply to power the fans, and keep airflow going through the case. It's not exacly the stealthiest but its working out great for my first grow. I'm already working on my rubbermaid for my next grow. Thanks for the support apples.

Well she's on day 11 right now and I started the Big Bloom nutrients. All I did was follow the directions on the bottle by adding 4 tablespoons to a gallon of distilled water. Also I've been spraying the leafs with a combo of water and the nutes. She's looking pretty good.
