LOL, I had a phototron hanging in my closet in the early 90’s, spent months growing less than an oz.

yep, this is a different one than i am looking for. i’m pretty sure that mine was an earlier rendition. but thanks for the input anyway @Glam
i had my phototron in the mid 80’s. i only grew once in it, a skunk and a hawaiian. i got two and 3/4 ounces of skunk and 3 and a little bit more of the hawaiian, but i followed the directions exactly. this was not at the time when he wanted you to send stuff back to him, all the stuff was with the tron from initial shipping @Hellraiser

I think the bulbs were wore out on mine, I found it in a dumpster, wasn’t in the greatest shape.

Similar. Probably just as ineffective for cannabis.
But you too can feel like you’re on the Rocinante

Not a bad price point lol
I’m planning to go through mine electrical wise before throwing it in the dumpster.
I had purchased extra light tubes (which I have) but the issue for mine is the reflective coating on the interior panels flaked off quite a bit.
Given what little I’ve read here, there’s obviously much more productive methods available. I’m a newb and excited to learn more.
My Phototron will probably be a time capsule curiosity. It’s hysterical to read all the literature in any event, given the almost 30 years since I got it.

Can one of you guys provide some dimensions and maybe pictures?
I feel like a replica needs to be built and put into service… I definitely have better things to do, but you know, science and shit haha.

I found something similar, wonder how hard it would be to replicate.
