Hey guys!
I'm kitting out my wardrobe as a stealth growing closet.
It's 6 x 2.5 x 1.5 feet, and I want to use a 250W HPS lamp. I've decided to use a cooltube as it prevents heat building up.
I wanted to have it hanging horizontally but the inside space of my closet is 64cm, and the tube is 50cm, and i need 15cm either side for ducting to the top or bottom of the wardrobe.
Given that I'm growing plants from seed, would it work positioned as so?:
It can be raised and lowered with flexible ducting, and will probably be positioned at the back of the cabinet like this:
Would that work? For example when they are just starting out and in the vegetative stage, will they get enough light? I could attach a second reflector at the top to avoid all the light being wasted going up to the top of the wardrobe..
Many thanks.
