efficient?

2.5x2.5 space. what do you think of 5 plants under a 400 watt hps system with wingreflector. 1 in middle and 4 around it, with 4 cfl lamps around the outside?
thoughts?

Be loads better with a 315w cdm/lec light for your space, it'll be your most important purchase for growing ,or cob lights if cash is no problem..
Good luck and happy growing

Ps. Still use your cfls for side lighting..

do you think it would work out okay with what i have? i already spent a lot of money so i'm gonna work with what i have, do you think 4 or 5 plants will fit?

4 would be tight if you get any kind of decent healthy grow going. Do-able though.

CFL's won't do much and won't fit "around the outside" after a couple weeks in the above scenario.

I'd go with 3gal pots, train 2 to be fat, 2 to be taller and thinner.

I have 3 auto's in flower in a 2.5x4 foot closet and it's packed right now. One of my auto's is 32" across and would fill your tent. She was topped though.

Yeah it'll do fine, what strain/s are you running.? Gotta make sure you have room for your plants stretching when you flip to flower.. good luck and happy growing
