I think those dimensions are good. My first cabinet was only 30 inches tall and ran into height problems even after LST training. My closet is almost that exact dimensions. Except 42 inches tall. Growing 2 in there in hydro. Under t-5 lighting. I got almost 2 ounces off my first cabinet. Hope to net maybe 3 this time around. Remember make sure when you throw her into flower you have plenty of room for height. My biggest top was 10 inches. Put a small fan in there too. I wish you luck, man. And happy growing.

Im new to this so not the best at knowing some terms.

Sneex- I literally got the same tent 60(5ft)x48(4ft)x24(2ft).. i think if you have anything less than 5 feet tall, it will be a major pain in the ass. Get the tent brother.. its easy to set up, has 3 4" vent holes so you cant put a 4 inch fan in there no problems. And you can easily fit 2 or 3 mature plants in there. There will be little bit light leakage but not to the point where you could see light coming out of your closet. What are you going to use for the lights? you could use CFL's the whole grow, but you will loose density and quality rather than when using a HPS... How are you going to vent your room?
