2 grow, with 4-65w cfl's (2700k)
1-15w growled
2-65w (6500k)
I am growing in a small closet, but was wondering if it is too late to add a 400w hps. these pics are three weeks into flower so this wen. will be 5weeks which is when my light will be here

It's never to late to add more light.

HPS is the way to go. But you NEED an air-cooled hood (preferred) or a cool tube (inferior but effective...just less effective) if you are growing in a small space.

I use a Sun System Super Sun II reflector with a 360w hps conversion bulb (operating on a 400w MH ballast) and my plants love it!

Yes, an inline duct fan ($30 at home depot) pulls 250cfm and is sufficient to cool a 400w hps in a cool tube.
