My grow closet

[DavidH]

It's about 2x7x6. The entire closet is about 12 feet tall, but there is a shelf at 6', so I will be dividing the closet and may use the top area for more space later, but as of now it's just the bottom section.


















That's the closet. Right now it's just one fan for general circulation and exhaust, but I plan to add more for better ventilation. I have 5 CFL bulbs and 2 fluorescent bulbs (shop lights, 40W each) for a total of 305 watts, for 4 plants. I plan to add a 400W HPS light, but I'm still waiting on it to come. I also have another shop light fixture that can add another 80 watts. My reflective material right now is some insulation crap from Home Depot. I got some Mylar from the local hydro store, but I didn't find that until too late. I'm not sure whether I should keep what I have and use the Mylar for the doors and what's left of the room, or if I should put Mylar up over everything.

Here's the doors.





I need a way to lightproof the doors. I'd like it to be at least a little inconspicuous, so a tarp on the outside won't work...unless I can find something to cover the tarp that looks legit. Any suggestions would be awesome.

I'm super ripped and tired of typing. Let me know what you think. Peace.

if you use mylar- or use tin foil if you dont wanna spend the extra money it will increase your yield by 50 percent at least-more light more bud

What I have up now is insulation, claims to be 97% reflective. But the Mylar appears to be much better. I can get a 100 sq. ft. roll (4x25), 2 mm thick, for $20. I currently have one roll, which is mostly for the doors. I forgot to post pics of the doors, editing in a second.

Damm I wish I had a closet that tall, you can grow any strain you want in there and get some crazy yields. I personally love mylar but I'm sure that insulation will do fine if they claim 97%. Good luck on your grow.
