I just got my 400w hps int he mail, My grow is only in a small 2x3 closet. I realised after buying the light that its may more then needed, although I can use it in the future. The question is the canope doesn't really fit so i can mod it by shortening it or i could do without it. The walls are flat white paint with an 8" fan.
Thanks for replies.
In a 2x3 closet you need an air-cooled hood or cooltube to run a HID light, especially one that size. By 'canope' I assume you are talking about the reflector? You need a reflector, and if it's a batwing you can probably cut it down to fit, but anything else isn't practical to modify like that.
Ya it is the Batwing, I don't have an air cool for my light. I'm thinking of adding in a nice vertical ventilation to the attic. so i take it cutting it would deffinatly be better then just putting it in on an angle.
and yes I ment reflector :) my bad i'm sober
Cutting is much better than angling.
Venting with an exhaust in the top of the space right into the attic, with a good extractor, and an intake at floor level, might in fact work out for you.
>.< I can't seem to figure out how to get the bracket to the batwing, comes with screws but there too short. and i think i'll have to run out and get some chain. Whatya think?
