I am hoping to get some feedback on how many plants I should do, and what if any lighting changes I should make:

I am open to consider adding another 250w HID, switching to t5, or switching to a 400 or 600w.

Please let me know what you think would be the best combo # of plants and lighting to get the greatest yield in my grow tent, I have the time this next grow to veg as long as needed etc..

thanks in advance!
dont switch to t5! especially not for flowering. definately go with either the 400watt or 600watt - id recommend 600watt with a switchable ballast so you can get the benefits of both MH and HPS. it might get pretty hot in your grow tent, so definately have a fan blowing out air (and preferably also have one blowing in fresh air on the other side). youll be very pleased with the results
