Help With my SCRog Grow

Here's my problem, my grow space height is only 3' 4" and the light it self takes up about 6 inches, and i have to leave at least a half inch so that it wont burn the ceiling of the room, and then i have to keep the light about 8 inches away so that the plants don't burn, the pots take up space and there needs to be room between the scrog and the pots, this doesn't leave much room for the cola's. i wanted to grow 4-6 plants and i'm thinking a 150 inst enough, but the 250 is even larger and that means more room between the plants and the light as well. i was planning on using some cfl's for the sides as well. Can someone PLEASE give me advice, i just invested a bunch of money in this project and i'm getting scared that it was all a waste :wall:



















Thanks

I would say if you want either a 250 or 150, get the 250 watt. more light, more bud. and since you have room to grow up to a little over three feet, it should be great. Have you already taken into consideration room temps? Could you properly cool a 400 watt system in your area? I just purchased a 400w from HTG supply and its great so far, and I've read that its more bang for your buck to get a 400 watt.

eventually i will upgrade my equipment, but for now i'm only looking to grow about 4 plants with some cfl's combined. do you think i will have enough room for the 250watt? how high do the colas grow when u scrog? and how deep does my soil have to be?

m8 im a noob but dosent scrog mean sreen of green and differs from sog because when the plants grow through the screen u are ment to force the branches back through the screen and they grow underneth along the screen its ment to restrict the hight of the plant. also its just an idea but instead of planting in pots y dont u get 2 really fat bags of soil and lye them on the floor of grow room and cut holes plant strait into the bags might give ya extra wee bit ya need
(peace) A 250WATT BULB CAN BE KEPT AS LOW AS 15 INCHES FROM PLANT
GO FOR 250WATT

scrog is used for areas that are limited spaces. This would work, but you would have to train the plants really small.
