My closet is 9 square feet. I am also venting so it will be no prob. I am using a 120 cfm bathroom vent. I have it venting right into the wall cavity, then into my bathroom, were I have it connected to my bath fan then outside. it works great, no heat or smell at all.

You sonofa bitch! I fuckin paid 10 bucks for ONE cfl god damnit LOL fuckin hydroponic stores always trying to keep the Long Hair down. So you use the cfls for flowering (first stage am I correct?) and you now got that sexy 400 or 600 watter for veg (which is the second stage right?) I always get those 2 mixed up but fuck Wall Mart here I come!

used the 6500k for veggin and used 2700k for about 2 1/2 weeks now using 400w hps........use 6500k for veg due to the blue spectrum and 2700k for flowering due to the red spectrum....although you can use hps thru the whole grow i perfer using cfl for veg due to cut down on the bill for the first month an a half.......:joint:
