Limited height

ok so I have 37" to work with.. what type of drip system would be low enough for me to get this to work? thats 37" from floor to 250 watt HPS bulb.. good vent system heat not a problem ( had to do this). I was going to use a floodsystem but my height is so limited, I will be training them short but Im still concerned.
Any ideas or suggestings?

still learning

so I went to the site, they sell allot of stuff but I didnt see anything that explains this technique, I dont mean to Piss you off LOL....
Ive read allot here at the city and you seem to be one of the more knowledgable people, Really what my concern is, If I put the drip system in I will loose about 6" thats huge with the cieling being so close, Is there a drip sytem I can build that is shorter, Or maybe just setting the timers to reduce runoff.. Im not sure but I have about 3-4 weeks to figure it out. I am going to attempt to get the light a little higher. Its a sunsystem V so it kind of bulky. My space is stealth and Im stuck with the height.
This is my first grow and so far so good, I will get pics of my space so you can see what Im dealing with....

Thanks for your help tetrahydrocanna!

Hey "Bud" I am in the theoretical stage and having the same trouble as you are currently experiencing ,only difference is I have 42" [not to brag] from ground to roof and 36" deep and possably 48" in width (the room has a roof effect like an upsidedown V which I think my 250w will fit into neatly).Its funny my dad used to be a customs officer and I'm still living at home so I'll be living in fear till harvest... I have seen a documentry I got off limewire called:How-To-Grow-Marijuana-Dvd( cannabis ganja skunk pot hemp ) using key words is best and i should mention its 690mb! they showed a method of "rolling" the stalk at a certain point of your choosing between your thumb and pointer finger to soften it up just enough to tilt the top of the plant to a 90degree angle to that of the lower stalk. {with multiple plants you are to be "inventive" and give it a sort of dominoe effect to the left or right and it also said it was possable to do it in more than one place on each plant but you are also meant to support it with a stake...loosely}.. Just to add:I have a friend who knows a bit (all theory) but he is in college doing theoretical physics so I love taking the piss out of his theories (Theory of relativity — Quantum field theory) but always funny when he's stoned and I question Newton's theory of gravity He's coming down to my house for the weekend so I hope yo get his input. I hope I've been of help Bud and I know I went into a little diatribe. I would appreciate any info on your system as it is kinda like mine in a sense. I'm deciding to grow cause I moved house recently and theres nobody dependable round these parts for general merryment! Goodluck

Roof effect

I also have the roof effect, not a v though, I ended up going with a sunsystem 250 hps once I vented it it seems to be ok, I have also decided that next crop I will be upgrading to a 400 hps cool tube, this will tuk into the roof line much better and give me about 18" more in height. I have a journal going if you care to see the set up.
as far as venting your area look at the roof vents closely. Good luck
