Is a 2 ft. Deep closet too narrow for 1000w?

Ventilation is the most important!Without ventilation there can be no light.Were talkin' HID,now.......

In that tiny space the only way you can run 1000w is water cooled. It's way overkill. A 1000w HPS is appropriate for a 4x4 - 5x5 space.
For a 2x2 you should consider a 250 or a 400, both with air cooling. Or CFLs.
Or a bigger space! :D

I have an inline turbo exhaust for the air cooled 1000W. Should I assist with and additional intake fan or another exhaust?

Peace, man! Your light for the 12 sq feet is just fine! I'm using 2x600 w HPS gavitas which is 86 000 lumies each for the 2'depth x 3width x 5'heightcloset. The only thing is to maintain ambient temperature, which is not a problem with powerfull fan. The more light per area you use the higher bud/stalk&leaf ratio, which is one of your aims. I bet you will receive high bud output ! just go for it, bring more love peace and happiness to this world!

Seems like the best way is to just try it out on a dry run first. If its too small, I'll just buy a cabinet.

Crap! The light emits over 100000 lumens. I think my space is gonna be too small....

PAR wattage is just about right for 2 by 6 feet sq garden. Walls lined with foil and 300cfm fan and ventilation holes at level with stems of cannabis will give you tremendous rezults!

Were you just thinking about getting a 1000W? :jointsmile:

It'll be tough to keep the temps down in such a small area, unless you make a whole bunch of modifications for airflow. You'd be better off going with a 600 or smaller, if you're bound & determined to go the route of an HID. Keep it air-cooled and exhausted, regardless of what size lamp you go with.

I have to admit, water cooled lighting would be pretty awesome!

:question:

I'm sorry, I have no idea what you're asking me right here.

I own the light, its just in use right now for a grow with much more space... Finishing a few Bubbleberry, Hindu Kush, and Shiva Skunk.
I'm going to give this space a try, but if I see a 3' deep cabinet, i'm buying it... I'm going to sacrifice 1 clone to see if it can survive a couple days of veg in the thin closet.
Anyone have any creative venting solutions? I have 1 turbo inline exhaust, but I think I may need more sophisticated airation/cooling ideas.
