So you're wanting to run 9 250's in there? I hope that was a typo...

Yeah, man- search the site for CFL grows, there's tons and tons of info.
Breaks down like this:

Hot lights+wood frame+improvised wiring= severe fire risk

250W anything is too hot for wood, 9 of them would be silly. If you want that much light, go to an HPS 600W or 1000W. Go to the library, check out several books on basic wiring, and memorize all the safety sections.

Search around, chances are, if you are thinking of doing something, someone here has done it and documented it. If not, document it yourself so others can learn from your experience.
