Smallest/coolest running HPS for a small closet

[hskdondada]

whats up yall!!....im starting a closet and was wondering what size/wattage HPS i should use if i plan on blooming 4-5, 18-24inch blue cheese ladies, this is a strictly personal use garden and im probably gonna go with some t5 floros for vegging due to space,cost and venting issues(i know MH is better)....then switch to hps for blooming once they are just under 2feet tall any help would be much appriciated

I think you would do good with a 400w hps.

Yeah, I have a 400 hps and all i have for venting is a box fan pulling hot air out and a little desk fan blowing on top of the plants to russle the leaves my temps stay between 75-80F

I would only use the t5s for a short period, max 1 week from they sprout and then throw in the hps apx 1 meter above the plants. But then i dont have to care about electricity bill and the heat/venting is no problem to me.
