2nd Grow 400w MH/HPS

So this is our second grow. Our first was done with CFLs through the vegetation and flowering with the 150w HPS from e-conolight. Turned out pretty good. We decided to get a big boy light which is a 400w MH/HPS convertible ballast. We have a total of 15 plants under the light, 10 of which are about 2 and a half weeks old. The other 5 are either seedlings or small clones. 15 plants seems to be a few too many for our light but we think that once we sex them we will be down to 6-10 plants. Our box is pretty small so LST is going to be a must. We have 2 feminized seeds. One is snow white and the other is super girl. The others are bag seed from very dank weed.

Any comments are helpful. Thanks.

HID lights are definitely better than CFLs. There is no question. We flowered 4 plants with 1 150w HPS and 4 26w CFLs successfully. Just keep your light as close as possible without burning. 250 hps should be fine for 1 plant in my opinion. Do you have any pictures of your setup? Are you flowering indica or sativa?
