Ok I have a small space in my closet that i just about fit 1 envirolite in and a reflector. There is 2 white walls already but I need something like 2 other pieces of wood to go around it. I can't hang the lamp off of the celing so I need a wooden structure. I also need to be able to take the front off so that i can access it. How can I build this? I am lost for ideas!

It is 53cm long, 46cm wide and 56cm heigh.

I'm not too sure what you are asking, first off is that your actually flowering space 21" long 18" wide and 22" high?? What wattage light are you going to use and how many plants ?

Ok i think i understand what you are trying to do. You want to use the top shelf of a closet for your grow area? If thats the case am not too sure that you can do much with that space, first off you'll need more vertical grow space than that .... you only have 22" to play with plus you still need room for a refector. Which to be honest i dont even thing you need a refector for that small of a space just line it with mylar. That sif you figure out away to do this. But good luck

Ok thanks, Im using a envirolite for it witha reflector, I only wanna grow one plant at the moment so i can 'top' it so that it grows bushy not heigh.

I was thinking about stapleing 2 pieces of white cloth to the ceeling and the wall to make it light proof, then Put card around it to make it not so obvious.

How far do i keep the light from the plant and do i keep it on 24/0 first of all?

This is a hard one!!! I guess its just because i'm clusterfobic. Not too sure how you can use that space, but i'll answer what i can. Cloth absores light and with that small space you need light everwhere. Get some black and white platic or just seal with caulking and piant the inside white. you can be pretty near to the plant with a floro light, but i'm still trying to wrap my mind around your high issue and remember you are gonna need a planter pot ...... which i'd say min 5" for a flowering plant which is really pushing it with root bundles. I recommend you need to find a growers guide and read up first, lights are 18/6 for veggi and 12/12 for flowering. You might wanna try a lowryder too. happy growing

Ok thanks, I might use some silver shiney card and cut out some thicker card to keep the light in. Then cut some plywood and put it all around it so it is sturdy.
Thanks for the help.
