I have 2 lil girls growing up fast in my closet right now.. my closet measures 22" Deep x 5' Wide x 7' Tall... Im using CFL's, and will be using CFL's until i have enough money to get an HPS.. Im not planning on getting an HPS for a while.. when i do i willl build a new grow room..

Ok so my ? is, what would be the ideal dimensions for a grow box in the area i have using cfls, and growing no more than 4 girls?

I dont know what size pots to use either so if anyone can give give me a suggestion on that would be grreeat!!

I'd say make it as big as you realistically can. That way when you decide to upgrade to an HID light you'll have the vertical space to work with and a little more heat dispersion. With CFL's you could get away with 4 feet high, but with an HID I'd say more like 6 feet minimum. Say a foot for pots, 8 inches for the reflector, and a foot between light and plants, that would leave you with 3 foot 4 inch plants, which, with some topping and lst'ing isn't bad at all.
