Second Grow, need some advice, kind of strapped for room

hey guys, so i have a tent thats about 5 feet tall, 20"deep, and 36" wide..

i plan on having 2 girls in 5 gal buckets under my 250 hps (in soil)..

i planned on vegging for a good 5-6 weeks and use LST, however i am worried that i will not have enough width room for them to spread out and in turn causing stress to them..

so in your expert advice, what should i do? should i try to top instead? because vertical height is no issue, should i practice light LST and have maybe a veg time of 4 weeks? any input, advice, criticisms are welcome,, thanks alot! + rep!

Try two to three weeks.This will keep your plants a little smaller so they will FIT.LST also will help with gettin light to the lower branches..Good Luck on Your Grow.Stay Happy,Healthy,and High......

u too man!! thanks for the input, i should also add im trying to break the 4 oz mark, last time aorund i got 2.5 oz of of 3 untrained girls, perhaps i can incorporate some topping along wit the LST, will this help my width issue?

you could have the buckets side by side (width ways) and lst them down to whatever in the room length ways. oorr. do that only start them in opposite corners so they meet in the middle(or past really) lsting along the way, that should help with the initial lower bushiness.
