i have the same situation with limited vertical space. hope you have indicas! hah but ne ways, keep veg time to a minimal. i have about 3 feet vertically to grow in and i have all my plants from seed under 12/12 light cycle using cfls. all in party cups. small grows arent difficult, just require a bit of attention and loving care. good luck to you. curious about how to grow it small check out my grow journal below. ne questions i can help a fellow grower out

low-stress=train.,.,veg for a short time,.,keep lights close as possible to plant to ensure tight nodes spacing,.,indica based genes are prefered.,.but depends on space and enviorment wat u can do.,.,

I BUILT THIS LIGHT IT IS CHEAP TO BUILD AND IN THAT SPACE IT WON'T BE TO HOT AND WILL GIVE YOUR GIRLS 16800 LUMENS 6-42W 6500K FOR VEG AND 2700K FOR FLOWERING.. HERE IS A PIC OF MINE, IM USING A TOTE LINED WITH FOIL FOR A REFLECTOR RIGHT NOW UNTIL I CAN AFORD TO BUILD A BETTER ONE....
I HAVE 4 26W 6500K AND 2-42W 6500K BECAUSE THIS IS JUST A TOTE AND THE TEMP STAYS AT 82. BUY A CHEAP CLIP FAN AND BLOW IT ACROSS THE BOTTOM OF THE LIGHT IF THEY BECOME TO HOT. I CAN KEEP MY LIGHT 2" AWAY FROM MY PLANTS... GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR GROW.. FEEL FREE TO ASK ME QUESTIONS.. BUT I AM STILL A NEW GROWER MYSELF. IF I DONT KNOW THE ANSWER I WILL PROBABLY BE ABLE TO FIND IT.. I HAVE BEEN DOING ALOT ALOT ALOT OF REASERCH..:bigjoint:

if your going to use cfls 2 inches is way to far.. if you look into cfls you will find after a inch the lumins go way downn by over 50%. on top of that you should only have the sides of the cfl facing the canopy... socket side face up is used to give light to the side or bottom....the side or the coil section is where the most light is produced...personally 42 watters are too hott in a small or micro grow... 26 watters are alot cheaper and more can be used... now if u have the same wattage you will actually end up getting a better yield with smaller bulbs because smaller the wattage of cfls the more lumins per watt are produced........also the lower wattage are cooler and can be place almost ontop of the leaves without a burn at all.... cfl=== Cover the Fucker in Light
or == compact flourenscent lol.....

i am a wealth of knowledge and feel free to battle me if you think i am wrong...

one love...
