My Secret Closet...Finaly Used To Flower.

OK!

So I'm currently growing in my closet. Closet measurements are 56"H(4.5') x 20"D(1.5') x 35"W(2.5') (of useable space). I'm ganna need some help because I've never flowered in this closet before. Only vegged before.

*PICS*









OK, so these are the basic pics of the closet. Currently one side is being used to veg. while the other has...clothes (which i removed a great amount of before the pictures).

Magnetic hooks are for the HPS, "Y" socket bulb adapters are for when i get a 6 pak of 27W Daytime CFL'S. Thinking of getting another lighting fixture like the one i have with the reflector (only seen in 1'st pic) and placing two 27W CFL's in each, then use the bigger bulbs for the rest. Sounds good?

I have two 18/19W CFL'S, 42W CFL, and a 32W CFL. I will be getting a 150W HPS and I'm wondering how good should my ventilation be? If you scroll through the pics (the one where I'm pointing to the 4 holes on the top right side of my closet) I drilled holes to have the exhaust. BUT, I'm afraid that there's going to be WAY too much heat, and need some kind of plan to prevent that.

I really don't know what info to give you except what I have planed in my head to do to this closet.

Drill 12 small holes around the bottom of the closet for fresh air, and take the heat with the 6" fan i have, which will be connected to a hose, and have it exhausted out the 4 holes already drilled (thinking about just making a huge hole). I will buy another 6" fan, but might go for a 8" fan and have one or the other modded into the exhaust fan, and the other to blow from the ground up wards onto the plants.

Sounds good so far?

P.S. WONT BE USED FOR FLOWERING UNTILL 3-4 WEEKS!! Keep that in mind that i have time for thoughts to improve and any kind of plan you guys and girls have.

Sorry this is somewhat long to you if your stoned. I just wanted to put this up tonight so who ever reads this can help me out as much as possible.

Thanks for your time.

can't say i've seen a HPS that's.....well....small.

What are the dimensions of your closet there? on the inside.

Closet measurements are 56"H(4.5') x 20"D(1.5') x 35"W(2.5')

This is from the bottom of the closet to the top where the magnetic hooks are (highest place the lights can go).

Sorry it took so long, had problems sleeping again.

Does anyone have any suggestions, comments or input?

I know your out there

You'll heat up quite a bit in there with a HID.

Besides the heat....your max height may be an issue. Light hangs subtract a foot....space between light/plant top subtract another foot.....That leaves you with 3ft max height roughly.

Not much room for your plant.

Well besides BSIv2.0, you all were NOT helpfull.

Working on the room as i type, decided to take everything out and use the whole closet now.

Will take pics when im done and hopefully you trolls will say something.

too late..

how many plants is that in your pot?

You're going to have some major regrets for putting all those plants in the same pot. I'd suggest your get them out and repot each of them separately ASAP. Sorry we trolls didn't answer your beck and call, some of us do things on the weekend. We're here to help but if you're a dick don't expect much.
