High All, I have a closet its about 2-3' deep, 5' wide, 8' tall! for reasons that I wont get into I cant cut holes in ceilings or walls or etcetera! my question is, is there a way to grow some really good product in this givin space? I've vegged with great success in this closet under t-5's! but don't think the t-5's will bud successfully and have no way of venting hid, hps lighting.

I have about $300 and am thinking I would like to use this space to flower also, but heat is going to be an issue. I've looked into the led stuff and am thinking of going with either 2 grow panel 45's from searshttp://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_01299273000P?prdNo=1&blockNo=1&blockType=G1 or 1 120 watt tri-band led from htg supplyhttp://www.alibaba.com/product-free/106394685/NEW_120_watt_LED_GROW_LIGHT.html along with 4 of my 4' t-5's.

Do you all think that either 1 of these combanations would give any real product (just personal use no high yields would be expected) any thoughts?thanks:cool:

sorta...can you make the room dark and leave the closet door open?...that's what I do, using two 400 watt HID lights and a simple fan...in the bedroom; which is dark, air conditioned and off limits...:D

actually, have two bedrooms like that...:pimp:

Pretty much the same dimensions of yours. 150w hps didn't put off much heat - you could definitely get by with 250w hps (as long as you have a small fan in there, moving the heat out/away from plant(s))

Side lighting is important too! :stoned:

Thank you dougal, this is the way I went. 250 hps, 10" fan and 2 4' t-5's! the heat from the 250 as you stated should be fine in that small a space! (hoping)? thought about a 400 but money and heat remained an issue, I just thought the 400 would give more heat issues!

HTG supply has a special here in town for $118 complete, and they through in a maxwing reflector for an extra $20! Less then $150 0ut the door!! with tax!!! not a bad deal and I should do much better then I was with the T-5's. thanks for your input.;)

With my A/c off my room gets hot as fuck easily 90+. But my room is small only like 12 by 12 ft maybe. If your room is small like mine or you dont have good air flow through your room/house you might need to invest in a A/c they make the colors come out in your plants anyways!
