Space efficiency

So im ready for my first full grow. I've studied for months on rollitup a few months ago and became occupied with school. I have a question about how tall will chemdog grow? I have a cfl setup in this cabinet (dimensions 25-3/4" L x 19" W x 35-3/4" H) which i wrigged with 3 2cm pc fans and a dwc grow. The problem that I'm looking at is the height of the cabinet which isn't really tall. The height of the cabinet is only 35-3/4" H. Will this really be enough to hold 4 plants in? The dwc tub is at least 9 inches tall. so that takes away some height, as well as the lighting which measures at least 8 inches. So technically I don't have much height to grow with. There is a lot of volume in this cabinet though. I believe I needed a plant that grows short and bushy. I know there are other options like training the plant with by tying it down to grow sideways. Also I believe that humboldt bush master stops the plant from growing any higher. I just wanted some advice from people that know about how to be efficient with their space. any other advice is welcome as well.
a little bit about my grow.
- I have the full line of Cutting Edge Solutions. I've read very good things about these nutrients and how forgiving is it with mj plants.I plan to use their foliar spray mix too. I wanted to know the deal with adding molasses and hydrogen peroxide to the nutrient water. I believe the hydrogen peroxide keeps the roots clean and provides extra oxygen to the plant but what about the molasses? I add it towards the end of the grow right? what amount? Are there any another additives like hydrogen peroxide/molasses I should know about or read about to help better my grow.
Also if chemdog isn't a good choice of strain to grow with a limited height. can someone recommend a strain I should grow? Here is a company with verified genetics that I plan to purchase from. If you click the link there is a list of strains that they have. Any recommendations? Thanks

that space is way too small for 4 plants bro...even with 1 in that space i would look to lst/scrog them shits

damn tell the truth. i know it's way too small for four plants and i have no choice! it sucks but I know theres a shit load of techniques to help keep it down with yielding a good amount. alright so im planning to use the humboldt bush master along with LST and a scrog. IF needed (probably will) I will have to resort to leaving the cabinet door open and using a black tarp/blanket as the door so that'll give it more room. Anybody have any other advice (other than it's too damn small)?

i get you may have no choice to grow in that space but you do have a choice on how many plants you have to put in it...you can stuff 4 plants in there and have em get all fucked up with heat and humidity problems or you can grow 1 healthy plant in there, train it right, and harvest more than you would with the 4

as an experienced engineer to an engineering student, open your mind forever to learning and life will be alot easier...the first bite at the apple isnt always the tastiest
