OK... Im planning my grow room and i need some advice about what lighting i should use and also what kind of grow cab to use. It's going to be in a closet but i rent an apartment so i still need an enclosed box with vents and a carbon filter so i don't get busted(I'm just going to vent it back into the closet). My closet is 3'10'' x 2'5'' x 5'4''. So i was thinking the best and easiest way to do it is to buy a grow tent that is around 3' x 2' x 5' and just put it in the closet. 1.Does anyone know if there is a tent made that fits these dimensions?
2. Will a small 250 watt HPS work in that space without too much heat or will I have to use CFL's?
3. Which will produce the best yields between a small HPS or a bunch of CFL's?

I dont think you will be able to find a good quality tent with those exact measurements, but google Homebox grow tents and check them out, best quality and prices.

Dont forget that CFLs Do put off quite a bit of heat as well, especially the amount of CFLs you would need to cover that space, I would definitely, definitely go with at least a 250w hps, it will be easier to manage, only 1 light, and you wont have a clusterfuck of CFLs all over the place. And HID lighting like HPS will produce bigger, denser buds.

You will only ever be able to get your grow room down near the temp of the surrounding room, if you dont have AC then you will have to substitute for increased airflow, exhaust, and intake.


Anyways good luck
