I am setting up a grow room in a closet that's about 3' x 4'. What would be the most affordable and safest method to heat it? it tends to be fairly cold in that particular closet but I have to make due with what I have.

also: what do ya all think of this price for a small hps?

If you are going to use all of that closet space that's only about 12W per sq foot and is a little low. I think that you may want to consider 400 or 600W if you are going to use all of it. If so you will be back here asking about cooling the closet not heating it. What are the temps in there now?

I'm only using about half of that space. its a stealth grow. I put a blanket up around them to keep em warm and got the temp to around 80 degrees. 150 watt is as large as I can go for the time being by the way.

get a little electric oil heater.you can control the temp alot better than with a fan heater.
