Tyhe MH will work fine, not as good a a hps because of the spectrum but you'll still grow buds with it. I would be thinking about cooling if I were you. That small space is going to get hot quickly once you have a HID running in there...unless you're flowering someplace else and I missed it.

I like your set up though, looks very clean and nice.

check under the leafs are there any small black/red spots moving there? If so you got spidermites. Otherwise I think it's most likely some nute burn. What you feeding them?
 
I think on my next days off i'm going to cut some clones, or I may wait till my new grow room is ready the new room is 8'W X 12'L X 8' high I have the electrical put in 9 120v outlets 2 240v outlets don't know if i'm going to use hid lighting I may go all T5 for the room. Any and all input is welcome.

use a less concentration than what it says on the bottle if you experience burn. as for the lights, I sugest either CFLs, either HPS or both. CFLs are great because they don't give out much heat and they are pretty effective and cheap. Just make sure you have 6500k for veg and 2700k for flowering. :) Good job mate, any updates?
 
Ok it's been a while since I did an update so here it is.
I am putting my girls into flower I built a new grow box for them.:clap: I made my own carbon filters you will see in the pics using shop vac filters filled with activated carbon.
Let my know what you think please...
