If you plan on leaving your clothes in there, you do run a higher risk of fire. And depending on the strain, your clothes will stink to high heaven. Now that said, It will depend on a couple of factors weather you can run HPS. 1st where are you getting your intake from, it needs to be external to your exhaust, and your intake air will need to be around 68-72. 2nd you going to need a good exhaust fan and it has to exit the closet not just your box. If you do that you should have no prob with your temp. also, your ballast has to be in a seperate room(it generates a lot of heat as well)last do not store any cleaning rags or ferts in the room. Do all those things and you just might get away without burning down the house. I would just go with fluro. T5 or T8s for the side and if you don't mind spending some money then get 200 watt cfl grow light(probably run 150$ or so). either way you still need to move stale air out of the closet and bring in fresh.
