one/two plant cab in limmitted space

  1. I am working on bulding my first grow cab, and have a very small box to do it in. It is 1.5ft wide by 2.5ft long by 1ft deep. I'll cut through the bottom for pots, and have about a 10" height for plant material. I'm going to use LST and start from clones to keep size down, and since I'm new to the practice, I'll only be using 3 or 4 100W CFL grow lights. My question is: Should I grow one or two plants? If I grow two, I'll spiral them around two pots on either side of the box, and they will each have about 1ftWX1.5ftLX10"H to grow, and I'll probably have to do a lot of trimming. If I grow just one, I'll start at one end of the box, and LST the plant across the 2.5ft with a little topping (If I am not getting as many leaf spots as possible). I would also try to train side stems to fit the box better. So, which would give me a larger harvest, two cramped plants forced into very early flowering, or one, slightly more trained plant, with extra time to veg?
