I am new so right now I am just gathering information so that I don't make as many noob mistakes as possible. So I was looking at this light setup
http://www.htgsupply.com/Product-AgroStar-Ultimate-250-Watt-HPS-&-MH-Grow-Light.asp
I am looking to build a cabinet to do everything in, and so I needed to know a few things.
The page says it is good for 2'x2' to 3'x3' floor space. Would I be able to get away with a 5'x5' cabinet if I made it say 5' or 6' tall? I will be looking at what I need out of fans next, but is this type of light not a good choice for a cabinet? I know I would have to worry about heat, but I have access to a metal fab. shop so I can make modifications to my hood to run an inline through it, and would definitely have supplemental fans running to keep the box cool. All thoughts and opinions are all welcome...
