For 4 plants a 3 ft X 3 ft X 7 ft box would be okay....

You are going to eventually want two chambers so that you can have more than one harvest every four months. Count on 12 square feet for your flowering area for 4 plants eventually, and a 600 watt hps light would be ideal. Plan on 6 square feet or less for a vegging area, with fluorescent lights. You can accomplish all of that with a single divided tent or you can have two.

i have a 4x4 grow tent in a 5x4 closet, with 22 plants at the moment. as you can see in my pic thats a 4x4 grow tent in a 5x4 closet, it zips shut then i shut the closet door, my closet is also sound proof and i lined all 4 walls the floor and ceiling with eggcrate foam and the put on all 4 walls and ceiling Infored Bloc Myler. what i have learned your ventilation is everything when running a closet setup, it took me a while to get the heat under control, after a little trial and error its a great setup, good intake and good exuast and you are in bizz. you want to create a good negative pressure and it stays cool, i also run the AC outside of the closet at 77 to 78 degrees and it keeps the closet a degree or 2 warmer.
