My closet grow area is 26 inches Long, 23.5 inches wide and 64 inches tall, is this enough room to grow one maybe 2 Grapefruit strain girls?

That's a lot of light! You have 4 square feet. 400 watts will be bright, and hot in there. That hood cannot be air-cooled, so I would get one that can be, should you want to add that later.

I also wouldn't worry about the MH conversion lamp. Using the enhanced spectrum HPS lamp all the way would be better because it has more lumens.

HTH :mrgreen:

This is listed towards the end "future upgrades including air-cooled reflectors" so potroast was right it is not air cooled that is an upgrade. And you will want that in your enclosed area because heat build up will be a problem.

I'll see if i can find a enhanced spectrum HPS lamp that's air cooled. Hopefully it won't break the bank

That light is good for that area, i got the HPS only version. While it's not set up to be air cooled.. i have a fan blowing right on the hood and it cools it well..
