Default First Grow Closet build.....any input
Hey what's up guys ? I just finished putting together the framing of my first grow closet using cfl's had a couple of questions you guys might be able to help me with...i plan on growing no more than six plants in there the dimensions are 28"long 19" deep and 57"high i wanna use a t5 set up and was wondering if 14,000 lumens at 196w would be sufficient....wanted to use 4 bulbs on top and two on either side.... thanks for the input guys!!!

That should be fine for vegging. Not sure you need the side lighting, might just try it with the four on top. I'd also make the T5's one red and three blue, just to mix the spectrum up.
