Milliard tent setup

So I've got a closet with a wall return vent that's perfect for an exaughst. In searching for a small tent, I came across a Milliard 30x18x36in

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00H2ULDR0

Anyone have it? Just wondering if its practical to grow 2-3 indicas in a 3ft vertical space w/ minimal LST.

I'd also like to get some opinions on lighting if anyone feels like chipping in, I'm a fan of flouros however am open to suggestions. Given the size of the space, I was thinking something along the lines of this

http://www.amazon.com/Hydrofarm-FLCDG125D-Fluorowing-Compact-Fluorescent/dp/B001UV6P9I

And just have separate bulbs for veg/flower. I'll probably wind up getting a cheap inline fan off Amazon as well, the tent has acouple of passive intakes so I'm thinking one exhaust plus a small clip on fan should be sufficient? I'm looking for cheap and simple seeing as I have a $250 budget for the setup, any advice welcome.

If I were you I wouldn't waste the money on that tent you can get the same size just taller. Maybe get one that 5-6 ft tall. That light won't get you much bud that light would be good for a week or two of veg then that's it. I would go with a 400 watt apollo off amazon with the cooltube. Then pull the reflector part out of the cooltube and use it as a vertical light. You will yeild a decent amount and height won't be as big of an issue. Just my opinion tho

A tent like this I would say would be a better choice

Nice, however I'm more concerned with the electric bill, and an HPS compared to CFL is no contest. You say a week or two of veg, is there possibly a CFL alternative to the Apollo lighting system?

I also like the idea of mounting the light vertically, that would defiantly be ideal for height constraint. I kinda like the small Milliard tent, its cheap and somehow seems less conspicuous than a 5ft one, I can work with 3ft growing indicas.. its actually more like 2 1/2 ft considering the height of the carbon filter/fan combo I have picked out

http://www.amazon.com/VenTech-IF4CF412-Inline-Virgin-Charcoal/dp/B004Q2ER5C

But still with some LST, 2 1/2ft is doable with 2 plants especially with a vertically mounted light. I think I'm set except for the light, I'd really like to use CFL if there is a system comparable to the Apollo system. Thanks for the suggestions.

I've got the 6" version of that combo. Good quality, IMO. You may want to consider a speed controller too. I recommend a variac. I got a cheepie and sent it straight back. It only had two speeds: Hum and full-blast. As for lights, it's hard to beat HID unless you go quality LED. I have seen some impressive CFL grows here, but HID is still the king.

got a link? I was actually looking at this one

http://www.amazon.com/SE-Electronic-Stepless-Speed-Controller/dp/B000HQAVNI

Its listed as frequently bought with the 4in VenTech and its cheap. I'm thinking 4in should pull enough air from the Milliard tent given its size.

if you're going the cfl route instead of HID i would try t5 HO's. it would be good for a tent that size considering heat and electric plus you can put cool looking aquarium bulbs in it to get max par it actually works

That at is the reason you go with HPS, your electric bill running a single 400w won't be affected too much; it's cheaper than running a big flat screen TV.
