Your opinion

I'm starting my first grow in a wardrobe that had about 2 and a half shelves taken out so I have about 1 1/2 feet for the mj to grow upwards and the room for the leaves to branch out should be fine (I'm growing an auto-flowering strain) I currently have about 250 watts total for lights which Includes a pretty nice LED panel and a CFL light, both are pretty bright and the CFL doesn't put off to much heat. I'm thinking about adding in a small/medium fan to circulate air. What do you guys think so far? Will this be a sufficient area to grow an auto strain efficiently? (btw I've spent about $50 total on the lights alone plus $60 on the seeds so I've used about $110 for my grow space already, which I think is pretty good ) So what do you think?

Need more info i.e Width/ depth of cupboard.

yep need more details or better yet a pic

Here are the dimensions 28" wide, 16" long, and 20" high. When I get my computer up and running I'll post pics.

the height is going to be your biggest problem imo.. 20 inches isn't much room, especially when you add in the size of the containers and distance from the lights needed not to burn them...

look into either lst or scrog, screen of green, to keep the plants short as possible so that you can get the most out of your grow space..

Learn how to "supercrop". Best advice I can give you. Good luck to you!

Height won't be a problem as I have a flat LED panel covering only about a foot total so the plant can grow right up next to it, the CFL is on the very rightside of my grow space so it shouldn't burn the plants

i tend to disagree, led or not, 20 inches of vertical space is not much to work with ime, but w/e, good luck with the grow non the less...

The strain I'm growing should reach up to 16-18" in the end, atleast I'm hoping it wont have to push up against the LED, I'm prepared if it does as I will probably take out another shelf adding about 3/4 of a foot the the total grow space making my total hight for vertical growth close to 3 feet

If your gonna take out a shelf already why not skip a step and Give yourself the extra headroom?

That's a good point
