mini friddge grow room ?'s

I am starting my 1st grow cab out of an old mini fridge. I was wondering if someone could help me figure out how much light to use in such a small space (24" x 24" x 24"...plan on 1-2 plants). I was thinking bout going with a 100 HPS wit 2 small 4" fans for exhaust and freshair. Please help me make this work.

Theres been a lot of different advice floating around regarding lights i've finally decided to base my assumptions on color spectrum corresponding to stage (ie. blue for veg red for flower) and on lumens (of which probably around 3000 per plant) I am currently trying a grow with a single 42w "150w" CFL I assume Ill need another one when I enter full veg tho (and im rotating my plants so i dont grow akwardly consequentially some of my sprouts are wavy lol)

by the way my growbox is 1' x 1' x 2'

Godkas,

do u think u can pull it off in that small space. I've been reading these threads for a couple of month now and they all say that area is too small. They tell me that my 24in x 24in x 24in mini fridge is too small (thread I have on Cannabis.com). please keep me informed as I will do the same.

I would also say that your box is a little too small partner I C. If you think about it, you can do fine w/ the cfl's for the veg period, but you were saying something about a hps??? okay here we go.......

1. 24" space

2. take away... lets just say 6" for your pot (and thats a little pot) = 18"

3. you need space between the hps and the plants. at least 6" = 12"

4. now you have 12" of grow space which means a mini tree

Im almost certain If you double your CFL light during flowering it will function. I mean its a plant it has a will to survive and as long as it can it will.

I personally am only running a small grow op I hope to pull maybe an ounce or two off of two plants in bonsai

did you not read that above post, Im not lying bro!!!

yea man, mini fridge is waayy to small, i tried it last summer for some reason. i had a 5 inch tall plant, after one night, the thing shriveled up into a crispy twig.....my soil was so hot, i coulnt even touch it.
all the springs on my light, popped off.
trust me you cannot grow in a mini....you could veg. if you have perfect cirulation, and temp.
