I've got a closet which is 18dx20wx36h. Given those dimensions you can see the area is about 2.5 sq ft. As per a sticky on this board I decided I'd go with at least 10,000 Lumens of CFLs.

If I do six 55watt CFLs at 3600 lumens a piece; (3-65k FS, and 3-27k warm whites) it will give me 21,600 lumens.

Thats approximately double the original 4,000 lumens per sq ft I was trying to achieve, and is completely feasible budget wise. I plan to use two triple light bathroom fixtures at least to get um veging. During flower I may have to add some verticle side lighting of some sort.

For the ventilation, I don't know how I'm gonna work that out yet.

Got a small desk fan for breeze simulation.


I may actually have to build a Box to put inside the closet so that I can circulate air in the closet and the box but light seal it for flower.
