You can start them off in 2 inch cups and transplant to bigger cups or pots.
Most people do not go under 2.5 gallons. You should check out the cabinet and closet growing forum. You might want to go with floresents with such a small space.

No more duplicate posts please, I deleted the one in the seeds and clones forum.

i think id go with a LST grow under fluro's.....
maybe a bubble bucket ... they can support a large plant in as little as a gallon container ....
good luck

no offence, but why don't you do a little reading before you start your grow. Sounds like it will help a lot. Here's a good place to start. There's also a wealth of knowledge all over this site.

I use super soil with peters 20-20-20 for veg and 5-50-17 for bud stage. Ferts work good with rock wool also. Good luck!!!

40 lumens per sqft???? i've loaned out all my literature but that doesnt sound right at all ..... you need more than that... a 150 watt hps generally puts out 16,000 lumens ....now for optimal growth you want 50 watts per sq ft... so with a 150 3 sq ft is optimal... thats roughly 5333 lumens per sq ft.....
i think you need WAAAAY more than that ..... personally i have roughly 15,000 lumens per sq ft and 100 watts per sq ft.....
please do some resaerch ...

To sustain minimum growth you need 2000 lumens per square foot. For norml growth 4000 lumens per square foot and for optimum growth I would go with as many lumens as one could handle while keeping control of the enviroment.
