It's legal to do so, so I thought why not grow! I've quickly found out there is an overwhelming amount of info/opinions. The only thing I've done so far is buy a HGL 200 Diablo LED light (mostly because it was on sale haha).
I'm unsure if I should go with a tent in the chosen closet, or to DIY the closet into a grow room. Some dimensions of the space:
37" W x 17" L x 66" H
There is a shelf I could take out to get the height to 8 feet, but I would prefer to keep it and mount the fan+filter and store materials. I don't need to keep the closet door closed (it's in my gym) so I could position a tent half in/half out.
I think some of the appeal of a tent setup is easier ventilation with some sort of tent+fan+filter package. There's an inch and a half gap under the door (45 sq in) and I could cut a hole in the drywall above the door for the exhaust of the fan+scrubber (mounted to the shelf). This would require extending the shelf to the door, but should save me some money and look cleaner.
Would that be enough air movement for the space?
66" sounds like a limitation, but I'm also more concerned with quality than quantity. How limiting is it?
Was thinking two 5 gal buckets for the pots but that may further limit my space. Should I use different pots?
Interested to hear your thoughts and anything I'm missing - thank you for the help!
