I think you will be a happy camper with that setup. Probably could get away with 200 watt max draw in there.

If you push the power up more, take my advice and raise the lights at the same. Im running my 2 x 250kits no lenses @550watts in a 4x4 tent any closer than 24-30 inches and the canopy starts to bleach. I have ran my kits at all different power levels and distances an made a note of them for future reference.

So to anyone new to qb's take note.

I'm pulling over 320 right now all together
So 160 each 2'x2' area
I've completed a full run under the 90 watt kit and I def don't think this will be too much light idk if u can tell from the pic but there is a screen set up 14" under the lights

I may go down to around 200 watts bc all I have is seedlings right now
But only for a couple of weeks
I have the driver outside the closet and with it cranked all the way up and zero air flow its only about 5*hotter in the closet which is trippin me out and I haven't even set up my 6 inch fan/filter
My 90 watt kit is in a 2x3 wardrobe and it gets much hotter than the closet idk after I finish and get the seedlings in there I'll post an update here

If I went down this road what's the expected waiting time on the QBs with slates and drivers and such? (with the 3000k)

2-3 weeks if available online right now. if not in stock on website then 5-6 weeks.

Im still trying to figure out what is the best height. Got my qbs on the 19th. Transferred 2 bubba k to 6 gals, they were about 5-6inches. They are a little stressed right now but they are propping back to better vitals. Ill start a journal.
