Keeping in mind that I'm just an amateur...

I assume you're talking about a 2x6x7 kind of closet space. Lot of potential there for a small personal grow setup. Might want to consider a cabinet inside a corner of the closet for your plants in seedling and veg state considering that you'll need to prevent light pollution to the rest of the grow. If you were to completely split the closet than I guess light leakage wouldn't be a problem and you could skip the cabinet. Either way, you're in for a fun educational experience with rewards both material and cognitive. Depending on what kind of lighting you use, you're going to have some heat and odor issues considering the small space but there are easy workarounds if you have the ability to exhaust warm air, bring in cool air, and scrub for odor. The scrubbing is gonna be a bitch considering you're coming from a thin wardrobe closet like that.

Start small and easy. Sounds like you're going to have a blast though! Enjoy! From what I can tell, this site is packed with people who really know their shit and should be a real big help.
