Grow Room Help with setting up micro grow

[Noob420]

I am new to AFN and still new to growing. I will be setting a new grow soon but am needing to make a smaller more stealthy grow.
My first complete grow was auto northern lights and auto blueberry from ILGM. The northern light gave me 4 ounces and the blueberry gave me about 1 using 2 gallon buckets. I am also really looking into fast buds if this space will work
The space that I am using is going to be 21x13x33 inches tall. My issue is that my last grow was in a larger space with a 250 hps and a diy 240 cfm 6 in exhaust fan and scrubber.
I would like to use my same equipment but feel that light will be to close to the plants.
I plan on using my carbon scrubber with a speed controller and a 300 watt led and doing a Scrogg type to get the most out of the space.
Any suggestions or advice will be awesome.

I will be using coco and earthworm castings and botanicare grow bloom and ripe. I think that is about it and also not sure of container size.
Thanks in advance

@arty zan has some great information on stunting the ladies. Maybe top or fim her?

@Starbreaker is also doing a great micro grow at the moment, I am sure when she sees this she will chime in with her expertise

Hi @Noob420

Every build starts somewhere!

You have given us the dimensions of your grow space, is it a chest of draws, a bedside cabinet etc?

post up some pics of it and your kit ,it is always easier when people can see what your working with.

I would also spend some time looking through this forum, there are plenty of builds to inspire you and give you ideas.

Research, research, research the more you learn the easier it becomes.

Once you have an idea then it is time to make it a reality.

You will need to ask yourself some questions, such as will my old gear fit in the cab and if my gear doesn't fit, how can I make my own?

You also want to go stealth, so no bits of kit hanging out the sides and you want it to be quiet too?

Not always very easy especially when you go small.

I can make a silent wardrobe grow but silent micro grow gets harder, pretty much you end up making a lot of it because no one sells kit for micro grows.

Maybe you could tell us a bit about your situation and why you need it micro & stealth?

I imagine the carbon filter and fan take a fair bit of room as well as the light.

The more details you can provide and also show picture the easier it is to understand.

I look forward to updates from you when you have a idea of what you want, then we can look at how that can be made a reality, some compromise may have to be made, perfection is often near impossible to create!

Peace

Thank you for the input yea I forgot to mention my old hardware. The light that I have is a 250 watt hps with a wing hood. The grow space is 4 drawer dresser. The inside will be lined with left over panda film. The reason for the shrink down is due to moving and will not have a spare closet in the house so will be in the garage. Out of site out of mind. I also have another dresser with the same dimensions.
Take care.

Here are some pics, excuse the mess, we are in the process of moving. Here are some quick picks of the equipment that I would still like to use. I plan shorten the scrubber and also add carbon in there. The fan is a 6 in 240 cfm. I would like to use my 250 watt but am thinking about an led. I also forgot that o also have a 250 watt CFL for veg but don't have a socket or wing.

I'm not doing a journal at the moment because it's temporary until I get my tents back up. But when I get home I can post some pictures! I'm growing in 4 20 oz cups double stacked, and 3 tiny pots. I'm growing in a tall pantry so I'm using one of my led lights.
