is 33" tall enough for hps

i would like to know if a 33" tall grow cab would be tall enough to run an hps
i have little experience with indoor grow, but have grown outdoor occasionally. any input is appreciated..

thanks in advance...:smokin:

Just depends on your $$$ flow, you could run into heat issues, with such a high powered light, and smaller area, so you will need to include in your budget some venting.

What wattage HPS are you planning stone?

i currently run a 150w hps in two 10 gallon rubbermaid totes stacked on each other. i got a 80mm pc fan for outtake and a 6 inch fan i got from walmart in there for air flow and my temps stay around 91 farenheight.

if i use this set up i'll use 250 cool tube with a lot of circulation and ventilation. i may just use this box as veg and clone and build or buy bigger set up. i don't know that a cab only 33" tall would yield..

although i have 7 and a half ft lenght i could probably run two lights and tie plants down.....

the cab is only 19" deep and i could probably do some sog tech..if i can get a good mother started to clone off of...

thanks for the advice guys still would like to hear more:stoned:

If you are going SOG then 33" should be fine. How many plants you planning on?

Hey, I've got a cabinet thats 36" tall and its just barely tall enough. You're going to have to do a lot of LST and make sure to get a cooltube. I run a simple ~50CFM fan (though I'll switch it to a ~160 vortex and a carbon scrubber soon) and the temps stay low enough. You're definitely going to have to get at least two HPS lights if your cabinet is really 7+ feet long though.

His cabinet is not 7ft tall, its 7ft long, 33 inchs tall, sounds like a crawl space to me!

I'd like to see someone get a plant to grow horizontaly in a 7ft long space, I mean you would have to support it all the way down, but you could light the both sides of it, from under neith, and from the top, and put a big as hps at the end.... but you would definately have to figure out a way to support the plant, maybe put hooks in the ceiling and tie it to the ceiling, but, man, I think you could get it to grow at a 90 degree angle....

sorry about double post, proxy server messed up
