Grow tent or DIY size

I'm planning on growing 4-5 plants in a DWC hydroponic system, 30 gallons a bit smaller than a 2'x3' tub. I was looking at maybe 2'x4' or 4'x4' pre-made grow tent, or I could assemble my own using panda film and velcro but I'm leaning toward the pre-made ones just to be safe.
Is this a good size? and for this size what kind of training should I use? scrog? I have 2 300W LED panel, using about 180w each
 
Hey Archie

I currently have a 2'x4' I've fit 6 into her with 5 gal pots scrog style. With a 600w MH/HPS it tends to get hot but since I have sustained better ventilation my temps have come down to 76 at canopy, previous was about 85-90. I currently have 8 in mine at the moment but 4 are small bubba kush clones. Not familiar with LED but I assume 600w of LED would be sufficient. You for sure have the room for your dwc needs and if you're concerned on height, go for a scrog you won't be disappointed!

I have 5 of the 400w mars2 panels in a 5*5*7ft tent. ... It gets hot in there easily .I grow in a shed so dont mind the heat in winter but need ac unit in summer.

Consider how you will deal with temps...air filtration (exhaust and intake)

Any height restrictions?

Feel free to stop by my grow journal for information
