    A small fan is a real good move. You might do OK without it, but there are no negatives to having good air movement.

    Well, what kind of 250 watt system do you have? HPS? MH? hopefully not halogen because then you're fucked. MH tends to run hotter than HPS so you would need a bit bigger of a fan with more CFM than if you are using HPS.

    Well, is this going to be an enclosed area? if so, you might want to consider using a cooltube for your light. If not, just get a good fan, multiple speed, and point it at the light. That way it will blow the heat away. It worked for me until I got a better setup going.

    "what about hydroponics can you get them for one plant"
    Yeah. You can make a simple bubbler (dwc) with a covered plastic bucket, a small air pump with an airstone and some tubing and a net pot. The finished unit should cost around $10. (5 pounds) or less! But the rest of the hydro supplies can get expensive and hydro is tricky for beginners!
