how far above the plant should i keep a 600 w mh light for veg in a square space that is 4 ft long and 2 feet wide? i will only have a rotating fan blowing on it :(
 
I have 2x600w in a 2.5x6 foot box. Inline fans and the box still stays pretty warm. You might be asking for it. Do you have an intake and exhaust? You will need them definitely or your just making an oven.
 
no intake r anything,just a small closet ....what should i do ?my light will b here tomarrow and the lights i have right now will not evan work right for veg..my plants are starving for light :(

what if i moved my plants into my room instead of closet?would that b a better idea?theres no way i can set up a intake/exaust system.
 
Your prob. gonna need a intake or exhaust fan. or a cool tube for the HID.

growing is more complex than i originaly thought :( guess ill just try it and see what happens...fml, thanks for the help guys
 
Its an expensive hobby, but once you buy the stuff you need its all just maintenance. You will get way more your initial investment back in the form of weed, eventually.
 
Yes... next buy a RH/Temp Gauge....

Put your light in there, and do a test run with out plant...

Find some DIY ways to cool your space if it is indeed too hot...

Good Luck man, time for a dry run...
