Hello! I've got a few hypotheticals questions about closet growing if anyone would be kind enough to answer. I couldn't find anything pertaining too well to small closet grows in my grow guide like I had in mind.
1. Would 18 1/2 X 24 X 8ft be sufficient space for medium/medium large sized plants in 5 gallon buckets. I expect the plants would need to pruned right, though.
2. Since it's a small space, would lining the walls with tinfoil be a good idea? Or is it fine assuming it's been painted with semi-gloss white paint?
3. fluorescent 250 watts would be good for two medium/medium large sized plants?
4. According to this months High Times, increasing the co2 under fluorescent lights doesnt help? I've heard quiet the contrary from other grows, but if that's the case, would it be a good idea to switch to hps? Since they would hypothetically be one for 16/8, would that make them prone to catching fire? I hear they heat up rooms alot, but the ventilation system is pretty well figured out (pretty much making a vacuum into the attic).
5. If it is effective to increase the co2 ppm under fluorescents, since I'm around sea level, increasing the level to 800 ppm total would be good?
If anyone could help out, that'd be much appreciated.
