so my closet dimensions are about 5 ft long 2ft deep and a little over 8ft in height. i wanted to use this space for mothers to cut clones for an ebb and flow. my ?'s are: 1) what would be the best lighting for my space to veg the mothers? 2) how many mothers would grow healthy in this space?

I would go with a 4ft 8 bulb T5 set up.. very good on heat and u can switch it over for flower.. That's what I use..

Fluorescent lights t8 or 12 will work fine. There cheap and they work fine. Just cover the walls with mylar or white paint. Good luck

It would support about 4 mothers i'd say, you could fit more, but you're going to have crowding. Mothers get pretty bushy.

I agree with sully and headworm, I would go with T5's. 8 bulb would be best but, you could get away with 6 or maybe even 4. This would support 4 mothers well, if you have not used these I think that you will be happy with them.
