ok, so i'm going to do my first grow; it will be northern lights, standard nirvana seed.

i haven't decided yet whether i will do a veg and flower room, or just one grow all the way through.


anyway, what i'm leaning towards is just doing one grow in my closet. it's about 6feet tall by 9feet wide by 3feet deep.

and because of heat, it has to be flouro or cfl.

now, i'm trying to decide which. if i do it this way i'll use the same lights for veg and flower

long t5 tubes make a lot of sense giving the shape of the closet (long and thin, standard double sliding door closet), but i'm unsure if it's the best way to go. also i guess i'd be needing some sort of ballast for that? i'm unsure


so if i go this route (the closet), it'll be deciding between

1. several smaller cfl's, say from wallmart
2. one or two large cfl's
3. a few flouro tubes


suggestions? ease of use, heat, and electricity costs are the issues. i'd like to use a HPS to flower, but if i grow in my closet it will be too hot
