I'm new to growing indoors and I want to set up a grow room in a 3x3x8 closet and I'm looking at this lighting system on eBay for a $160.00. The HPS puts out 50,000 lumens and the MH puts out 45,000 lumens Any thoughts on this or is there a better deal out there?

Would it be too much for a 3x3x8 closet or not enough. My closet has access to the attic to get some kind of air ventilation system going as well.

Also how many plants could I successfully grow in a 3x3x8 room?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My pal has a 2X3x7 closet and is having trouble with 6 super skunk plants being to much thinking he should of did 4 he has a 400hps and has to open the door a crack when he leaves in the morning and close it up at night and his temps stay around 84 in the closet he uses hanging cpu fans. The light looks fine and is good for a 3x3 and if you can make a temp vent into the attic with a little 60 cfm fan you will be in good shape.

Thanks for the heads up on that. I'm really considering buying this light. Anybody else have an opinion on this. I just want to start out small and keep it simple.

Went ahead and bought the light. I didn't get anymore responses so I guess it was a good deal. Man I can't wait to get it, I feel like a kid waiting on Christmas. I'm sure I'll be combing the boards now and asking lots of questions. Thanks hitman for your response.
