The Supercomputer - 165W of PL-L and Micro Engineering Goodness

[NKOTS]

on the other hand, there are dozens of DYI examples for scrubber construction here at ICM, if you don' t fear crafting your own, they will be very helpful

once again womyn, really well done!
pulling 40g off a PC case is a truely remarkable result imo, especially for a first grow.

Thank you again for your support, NKOTS

My outdoor project failed miserably. I neglected placing a metal mesh around my plant and some godddamned rabbit (no offense, NKOTS) chewed the hell out of Brunhilde! Poor brunhilde had one shoot remaining so I put her out of her misery.
The lesson to be learned here: pests are your biggest enemy in outdoor grows, and most of your energy should go to protect the plants from the ravenous rabbits.
A moment of silence for Brunhilde - we always played Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries on our way to you

I'd eat that rabbit raw if I could only find him.

*edit* 25/11/2013
I didn't put brunhilde out of her misery, instead I abandoned her for about 3 weeks. On a whim, I decided to go check up on her and the remaining (albeit small) shoots grew just fine. It was approximately 60-70% as potent as the supercomputer's harvest.
I never found the goddamned rabbit, though.

definitely outstanding job, those supercomputer look a perfect machine,
kickass nuggs bro

Thanks killerweed, some of the sweetest bud I ever smoked

A lot of stuff has happened. The outdoor project yielded 10.75g of medium to high quality bud, it could have been much more but that's life. No more laziness in the future! The harvest was terrifying, so much so I'll probably never grow outdoors again.

The supercomputer is no more. In a bizarre twist of fate, some stupid young girl who doesn't know what a speed limit is rammed into the baggage compartment of my car, the same baggage compartment that housed the supercomputer and equipment for the next grow. Because the most fragile equipment was placed inside the computer, the computer absorbed the force of the impact instead of the equipment. I only lost a 250w HPS bulb, but the supercomputer was damaged beyond repair.

Luckily, I did not plan on using the supercomputer much in the future. A cabinet has been built and a seedsman White Widow has been popped. A new thread dedicated to this medical cabinet will be opened soon, when construction is fully completed (the seedling is in the smaller computer growbox and will be moved to the cabinet when it is ready).

sad to hear about the supercomp but good that you have a new gear on the way

cannot wait to see it!
peace

Sucks that the computer is no more, but I'm sure you'll have a blast growing in cabinets!

Sounds like some action movie shit!
This was a jaw dropping pc grow man you kinda set the bar pretty high
wit those nug shots.
Maybe try harvesting a stem a day over a week, hope your next grow is as fruitfull and more then this awesome one.

Awesome micro grow!

Ah Supercomputer, we barely knew ye.

A moment of silence, please.

 

[Womyn]

Thank you for all the compliments, folks!

A new grow is on the way. Goodbye Supercomputer, hello Olympus.

Very nice show! Being a software guy I have always been amused at the idea of growing in a PC case. I might have to try a grow sometime even if just for shits and giggles
