staggered, two strain SOG

Well my main question is, is it practical and/or possible to have two possibly drastic different strains in one SOG cab?

For you more dedicated helpers, read on. Here's my personal plan. What are peoples' thoughts?

I'd like to have two mothers, one of each from a sativa dominant and an indica dominant strain. I would take clones and let them root, then toss them into the flowering cab. It's only two square feet to work with, under a 150w HPS. I could fill all the floorspace with I'm thinking eight 1 gallon milk jugs for pots. They are a more square shape which fits better with my space. The plants would be staggered, as in they're in different weeks of flowering cycle and thus harvested at different times, I'm thinking height won't be much of an issue, as it's 5 ft. tall, or about 3.5 to 4ft taking in account the hanging light and height of milk jugs. So I would leave the light stationary, and adjust the height of the milk jugs throughout flowering cycle for each individual plant. The plants should stretch and grow vertical, making the most use of my space.

Thanks for reading. btw I'm a noob and I just got a healthy white widow sprout after like five horrible failures so I'm psyched as shit.

get a bigger light. also remember you want to keep that light a foot or so above canopy. It depends on the light. For your 150 i say 6 inches or lower. I'm sorry i dont think a 150 is a good choice for a 8 plant setup, but otherwise you sound good to go, cg on your white widow. You can get a 400 for 80 dollars one ebay. That econo light they have under hps lights really works. I got one an di am happy. Just know heat will be aprob and a vented hood is nescary.

alright thanks. with only two square feet I thought the 150 watt would be good. I'll try it for a while but may upgrade later.
