I have a 2foot by 2foot by 3foot (covered in mylar), I'm using cfls all the right lumens for every thing as well as color temperature (for veg and flowering). I can use a total of 8 bulbs for each stage of the process (4 are in the middle of the cab, and the other 4 are in each corner, all are adjustable in height). How many should I use all 8 or just 4? Also how many plants could I get in there for maximum yield? I was thinking SGROG but not sure yet. Any tips and trick greatly appreciated. I'm using a 6inch inline fan to a homemade carbon scrubber (going out of the bottom) and a 4 inch intake fan pulling air from the bottom. I also plan on using 1 1/2 pots I can fit 4 with some room to spare in the bottom, but i think it might get a lil crouded. what do you think the yield could be? Again thanks.....

First, I would use all the bulbs, making sure I was heavy in the warm end of the spectrum. I think two plants in scrog will be enough, and given the dimensions you stated scrog is your best bet to maximize light to the buds.

Make sure your containers allow for good root growth, two medium size bubbler buckets would do it.

How many gallons are the medium buckets? I was going for 3 plants in a scrog. I hope to yeah at lest 4 oz if not more? Is that do-able? Thanks Also any more tips would be good....
