Lighting 1st time grow. PC Case Pyramid Autoflower LST

[Biftero]

Hi All. Thought I would share my first attempt at growing in a PC case and also using an autoflower strain and using LST.

I am using a Xclio full tower pc case.
3 x 30 watt CFL bulbs.
1 x 120mm PC fan as exhaust. ( passive air intake).

1 x Pyramid Seeds Pyramid Autoflower.
Soil

Unfortunately I am on a tight budget and the only feed/nutes I am using is Dobbies Garden Centres own Soluble Plant Food.


After stripping the inside of the case I sealed it fully using plumbers heat proof mastic, and some Polyfilla for the smaller gaps.
The inside was then fully spray painted using a matt white radiator paint.

I will post some pics showing a bit of the case pre-grow and how the plant has progressed.

I look forward to any and all advice and hope you all enjoy what you see.

The pics below show the case I am using. The first plant pic was taken on 15th July with the 2nd pic 10 days later when i started to LST.

UPDATE #1

Well I know this update comes hot on the heels of my 1st post but the plant has changed and grown a fair bit in the last 3 weeks.

The below pics show where it is now having just started to flower in the last few days.

I have continued to LST the plant where needed and seem to have a healthy amount of kolas.

Any feedback is well appreciated.

they look like they are doing real good they have a great green color, i would lay off the lst or she might get away from you in that space but i think they look great :smokebuds:

Thanks Dirty.
Now that it is flowering the only thing I am doing now with LST is making sure the top of the plant is at an angle to allow a few bud sites under it to get max light, other than that I will be leaving be for now as it only has about 4 weeks left before harvest, all going well.

Peace

if you want you might want to check out dr. autoflowers fan leaf tuck method. it helps get the light where you want it without removing the leaves

 

[Biftero]

Yeah tried to find his info vids but they've been removed by the user.

TBH I have been tucking the bigger fan leaves anyway as it seemed better than trimming the plant.

I will post a few more pics soon, as I amazed with how quickly this plant progresses.

Peace.
