That is totally possible, but tricky. Elaborate on your plans a little bit, and post pics if you got em.

Yeah you can do that. For PC grows usually, if you can get them, autoflowering strains are recommended because they don't naturally try to get very large.
But with LST you can train anything till it's sufficiently full then switch to flowering. say grow your two until you have like 75% of the area filled then go to flowering and the stretch ought to fill it up the rest of the way without getting to tall.

i dont particularly care for hydro set ups in small cabinet grows. that shit takes up too much room, unless you have a rez out to the side but that'd be something else you'd have to hide. You could do deep water culture but that would just take up precious room. I would also recommend an autoflowering strain with a small space like that. I mean how much room do you really have inside those computer towers? There's not much room in there at all. do you have other options?

Yea if you are looking for a discreet/small grow there is no point in investing in a hydroponic set up
Just get some Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil from a Hydroponic store and you will be good!
--You should also consider smell and additional nutrition factors when growing

Or he could try hempy pots maybe. I havn't used em yet but the extra root's you get with them from what i hear could help compensate for not having a lot of room for dirt.
Someone else will have to expand on that thought more though.
And I have seen some old cases that are near 3ft tall and 15" wide. If you had one like that it would seem huge compared to todays smaller standard ATX cases. Your never gonna grow a pound in one though still.
And hey if stealth is your only concern there is a lot of other options to hiding it. I built this thing and it's working great.
Just some thoughts to help inspire.
