HPS Quantity Question

[Deejay2163]

I am going to be using a grow closet that measures approx. 2-1/2' x 4-1/2' x 6' high.I was about to order my lighting and was wondering if one 600 watt HPS or 2 250watt HPS would be my best bet.This closet will strictly be used for flowering so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I would say go for the 600w but that depends on your ventilation??? Its gona create some heat so what are u use to keep temps down especially if u plan on keepin the closet shut!

600w is the best light around if you can cool it.

Deejay...look at Join the Liquid-Cooled Revolution (http://www.liquidlumens.com) They have more info about the light. Its a different product and costs about $100 more but they have lots more info on the size res you need, amount of bleach to put into the water ect...
