Whats your room size? Sounds like you would need 250w-400w HPS.

Theres another option

You can search on ebay for better deals, although most of the products on ebay are from HTGsupply anyway!

I would go with the 400 watt hps. What are the dimensions of your grow room? You are aiming for 50 watts per square foot. Take the length of your area and multiply by the width of your grow area and you have the square footage. Then figure out how much light you have. The website Trillions suggested has some good deals. Hope this helps. Take care and be safe.

I think you may have a problem with heat if your area is only 2X3 and you're going to get the above light. It has an integrated ballast that will add to the heat that the lightbulb is going to put out. Do you have good ventilation? Keep us posted. Take care and be safe.

Its got pretty high celings and the closet is actually about fifteen feet long (one side is storage for old junk) with a fan on it it should be lk right
