Haven't started yet. I walled off an unused corner of my basement over the summer. It gives me a 4'x8' space to work with now. But the actual grow area I plan on using is only about 4'x5'. Plus height is limited to 6ft.

I figure a pair of 250w HIDs, 1 MH and 1 HPS, would do me just fine. Especially since I already have the MH and a friend's giving me his HPS.

Plus it'll keep the heat and power usage down to imperceptible levels.

I do not think 250w hps is enough for 3 x 3 x 5, at least you need 400W. CFL is BS, I tried and I had 0% confidence with CFL.

I've been doing fine in 3x3x6 with 250w for years. Does my above plant not look good to you? I'm open for constructive, polite, criticism.

Got 2 girls in 6.5liter pots under a 250w at the moment. Ill post a pic when lights go on. Just gone week 2 of flower. Not sure what ill get but both girls are a fair old size. One is a green poison other is a critical+. I'm gonna possibly just do 1 plant under the 250w next. Would like to be getting 4 or 5oz from this tent.

Not the best pic but they are two weeks into flower. I really abused them tbh. I've never snapped so many stems or bent them as much as these 2 lol. It just became plants I didnt care about n thought treat em mean and see how I do. Not sure what ill get but some bud is better than no bud. Next grow I'm gonna just try lst a single plant. Was wondering for that your plant has to be in its final pot when you tie it doesn't it? Is it ok to be bending thick stems ect.
