HPS question

If I were to run 3 plants in a scrog vegged with a MH in a 25"x31"x31" cab would it be more cost efficant to use a 250 watt HPS or 400 watt HPS? thanks in advance.

Lets see,
A 400w will boost my electric bill about $15 a month, a 250w would be about $8 a month. I flower for two months so we are talking about $14 difference. With a 400w I would assume I would get 3 to 4 oz's With a 250w I would think I would get about 1.5 to 2 oz's

I suppose if you pay more then $14 an ounce for smoke then its worth the 400w don't ya think?
