OK, well I've abandoned my idea of a Rubbermaid grow box...it's just not going to be stealthy enough for my needs.
What I'm looking into now is a PC grow like so many people are setting up here. Unfortunately, I don't have much experience with electrical or case modding, so I'm going to need some help along the way.
A few questions before I go ahead and start ordering my supplies...
1. How can I hook up my fans & lights to the standard 3 prong connector you'd see on the back of a PC case? I don't want to keep the whole PSU in there, but I'd love to be able to use the connector so it actually looks like a legit PC from the back.
2. Is there a certain case people are using with good luck, that seems pretty well setup for a micro grow? I'm wondering if there's something that already has fan mounts in convenient spots, and that is semi light-proof from the start.
3. If I need to setup some partitions within the case, what're you using for this? Plywood? Is glue usually the best option for mounting everything inside?
4. Do I need to grow dwarf strains, or can I just go 12/12 from seed and keep any strain under control with a screen?
Thanks for the help...
