Given your lights and size of the closets heat may be a problem. Are the lights above the chambers or inside? Are the lights vented? You might place the lights outside the chambers to better manage heat and give you more growing headroom. A 600 HPS can easily do 20 plants scrog. How are you...

I flower in a 2x4x7' space and use 2x430 HPS lights so two for you isn't overkill. A 600 would be fine as well.

Several different dispensaries and a couple local caregivers - along the Green Mile. Smoke was good but could be much better, typically a little over dried and not fully flushed or cured.

I was recently in Denver area and managed to pick up a number of products, here are the pictures. Some of the products are local genetics and outdoor grown - see if you can tell. The whole dispensary scene is pretty wild with some crazy variation in quality. I especially enjoyed the Ear Wax and...

Although my closet is slightly larger the configuration is similar to #1. My door is 18", use the extra 2" for flower area. I have two sides, flower on one side (2.5 x 4 x 7') and two story vegging area - vegging on the top (2.5 x 4 x 5') and propagation/clones on the bottom in a smaller area...

Depends on how you grow and whether or not you can manage the heat from a 600. If you are planing on sending clones directly into flower after rooting then I'd go with the Ts. If you plan on vegging plants for a normal 20-40 days then a 600 will produce much better structure (tighter nodes...

I just saw the deep trays (saucers) at Lowes for .99 a piece - 8" x 5".

Oversize plastic trays, deep (5"). This way I can water the plants from the bottom and a little from the top - makes a difference in my experience to feed from bottom up as it encourages root growth and a stronger plant.

Generally better to buy seeds, but u can still grow out a couple of yours just make sure you have something you know will be good. Attitude is excellent, I recently ordered and received my 5 packs in less than a week! All in breeder packs. A good plant to grow first is Sweettooth - vigorous...

COPPER, you cannot use AL or a fire will ultimately result.

Make sure the 465 has straight ducting with little or no angles and curves. You'll also need active intakes given the volume of heat you are producing with 2x1000 watts. But, you can make this work without AC if your ambient temps are OK. The Son Agro lights generate more heat than conventional...

I just bought a couple of Feliz CFLs to augment my veg chamber, here's a link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003FL3D4G/ref=oss_product I bought the blue shifted and the red shifted bulbs, using the blue now but will change to red once the auto-flowering varieties kick in. I have 2x250 MHs...

Nah, they weren't around when I bought my stuff. I have looked at them from a couple companies, they are pretty expensive when you consider the stuff you need (water chiller, etc). I prefer having over 100 watts per sqft (I have 117 now) so get as many 600s as you can fit and manage the heat...

Bought my lights 8 years ago so don't remember where, somewhere online like the HydroHut. Just decide on the config you want then shop it - obviously. I get my best genetics from a grower in Holland that I know but I have bought online from Attitude seeds, I also tried Sensible seeds but they...

In my opinion the biggest lights anyone should buy is 600watts, these are so much more efficient than every other HID variation that you save about 20% on your ebill - that's a lot over the course of a long series of grows.
