got given 5 blueberry (i thibk thats what its called) seeds, anyway
im thinking of a small stelth grow and i heard you can rig a pc case up to do the job?

i was thinking 2 plants on the bottom, with 2 CFL lights above,

using foil to line all the inside of the case, and an exhaust fan on the rear

opinions?

U can buy these fully setup with CFLs, air filter, fans, mylar ect online
also never use ail foil for reflection it causes hot spots on the plant.
EDIT if u grow in a PC case start with 2 plants till u find out the sex and just grow 1 and train it how ever u prefer to

I found a site called "The Cheap Vegetable Gardener", that shows you to make a basic PC grow case under $20. That's what I did but with a few twists,In addition to the exhaust fan I added a intake fan as well, right now I have two 23w/100w CFL's to veg, And painted the inside white, then put some blank DVD's around the insides as they are blue purple and reflect a nice blue, purple, green light spectrum, the blue good for vegging, the purple assisting the 26w/100w flowering lights. I the green nether helps or hurts, I also put in a couple old CD's that reflect all the colors of the color spectrum. I don't know if anyone thought using disks as reflectors, but it made sense to me so I'm trying them out. So far it has been working quite well, but next time I plain make some changes, like use a bigger case for one, and maybe more lights. Now for a cheap easy to make carbon filter search Google for DIY carbon filter. :smokie:
