My setup now is box I built in my closet that is 4'L x 2'W x 5'H. I'm using 6 150 watt cfl's so with the lights its maybe 4.5'H.

There are 7 plants at just under 4 weeks veg in 1 gal pots and I would like to put them into 4 gal pots to flower. I'm going to let them go 5 weeks, then 36 hours dark and 12/12. As soon I can get the sex I'm going to transplant and they'll be on their way.

So my question is this, based on the number of females (idk at least 3 at most 5/6) what would be the best way (lst, pruning, supercropping) to utilize the narrow space? With more plants I guess a more verticle solution, and with less a more even canopy type route.

(Pause for joint rolling, and VJ beating Pampling in 25 holes at the Accenture Matchplay!)

Onward, pic 1 you can see its not too deep, but there's enough height. Pic 2 is the tallest one at about 10.5". The rest are about 7-8". I now, Im getting mylar soon.

Does anyone think that chart for sexing seeds is useful?

The seed sexing chart is pure bunk.
Seed shape and marking (of a mature seed) depends upon genetics more than any other factor.
Your plants look content.

Thanks Stinky, would you recommend any kind of pruning of the lower leaves to try and promote verticle growth?

That first pic of the chart sucks so here's another one.
