    Growing...garbage cans?

    Hey everyone!

    So, this is my plan, tell me what you think.
    I have one 400W hps, and one 600Wmh lamps. I want to start a few plants in 2 garbage cans in my walking closet. I think it might work, though I am thinking it might be too hot in the garbage can for the plants, and I am concerned about starting a fire.
    I will line the garbage cans with Mylar and I have co2 producing microbes which I will be using. I am a relatively new grower, and need some advice. I am most of you understood what I am trying to do, but for the people who would like a visual aid, I have drawn a picture. Hope you like it.
    I am thinking I might need a fan, though I have no idea what to get. One which is relatively inexpensive would be nice.
    Cheers!

    WAY to much light....the only thing I think you could do with garbage cans is line the interior with flo's. That would pretty much kill your room for a plant though.

    Use a closet!

    Good luck on the grow!:thumbsup:

    yeah try a small cabinet and make sure its not made out of any metals cause that will absorb lots of heat

    Lighting Chart - A guide for wattage per square foot.

    HID Light Output Primary Growing Area Supplemental Area
    100 watts 2' x 2' 3' x 3'
    250 watts 3' x 3' 4' x 4'
    400 watts 4' x 4' 6' x 6'
    600 watts 6' x 6' 8' x 8'
    1000 watts 8' x 8' 12' x 12'

    There's a lighting guide in my signature you may want to check out.

    Good luck on the grow!:thumbsup:
