What do you think of my Cooling setup?

Im going with a 150w HPS, and im buying a cheap vent system

Here are the links to the light, and inline fan. I already have the ducting

Do you think this will be enuff to keep the closet cool and keep the smell down?

Im in a 4.5x2ft closet

Light:https://www.htgsupply.com/viewproduct.asp?productID=53025

Fan:https://www.htgsupply.com/viewproduct.asp?productID=46434

I have that same fan cooling my 400 watt hps, it's marginal at best but with the temps dropping outside I havn't had any problems .My temp is around mid 70s. You should have no problems at all with a 150 . What are you using for veg lighting? If you can, find about 6 85watt cfls 6500k is what you want to veg, your 150 hps will do just fine for flowering,and you may want to add a few cfls for flowering as well but for flowering use 2700k bulbs.Cfls are confusing to buy they advertize them as 100 watt but if you look you will see thats the "same as " wattage the 100 watt cfls I bought were actually only 26 watts!! So look carefully. Also if you want to spend the money you can get a great cfl set up at Stealth hydro.They sell all the hydroponic set ups you read aout here, they have lighting as well plus complete hydro set ups ...good luck Elmroach..

YEa i was planing on veggin under CFLs.

About how many do you think i can flower under a 150? Most people tell me 2 at the most, but i want to try to go for 4

you would have much better results with just flowering one, but 2 is ok also. dont try anymore than 2 that light is only like 16,000 lums i think, its not enough, if you want to flower 4, buy a 400w hps thats around 50,000 lums and sufficient for 4. Your going to want to get it as close as you can to the plants too....

hope that helps.

Depending on plant size of course i wouldnt go with more than 2 under the 150hps..I had the same light awhile back and I was very unhappy during flowering with its performance..As far as vetilation the inline you have choosen will be fine for that setup. If you could handle the finances i would try to step up to the 250hps ..

Yea, the 250 is like 4 dollars cheaper than the 400

SO if i were going to spend that much more id just get the 400

Would that fan be able to keep a 400w cool?

This time of year no problem.My little closet is really tight and I've got a 400 in there. 6 plants 4 of which are doing great the other two are just hanging around for fun they were runts from day 1 .The 4 plants are drinking a gallon of water a day ! They
re really shooting up now. Are you using dirt or hydro? This is my first try with hydro and am amazed how fast they grow ! Check out Rosemans tutorial here under dwc/ hydro .

keep in mind that you can get an extra 250 watts for like 70$ more. Also that is just a shitty booster fan which are pretty much useless.. they just help remove static restricting the ducting.. they are gimpy as fuck brah

Yea but all the other fans are WAY more expensive. And i need something that is 4". Thats what my ducting is.
