How many plants?

[Elkobon]

Hi. Can someone help me? I have a 2,5x2,5 tent with a chinese led (castnoo) of 1000w (equivalent of real 230w). Is it ok to grow 4 plants in this setup? Ive read here that I need at least 75w per plant, but i want to grow 4 plants. So thats why i am making this question! Thanks!

How about a picture of the tent? Is that 2.5 meters? or 8x8 ft? Of course it all depends on how you train or how long you veg your plants. Pictures please!

0,80m / 2,5 feet. This is a picture using 3 plants. But im facung height problem everytime, since the tent is short (1,6m). I want to use smaller reservoirs and 4 plants. What do you think? Thank you!

At most, two plants. You would probably get better results growing a single plant under that fixture.

I'd suggest one plant and LST the hell out of her 2.5ft isn't much bigger than my tent and even one is a challenge. Any more would be crowding themselves out.

Elk, the only way you'll learn is by doing. If you put too many plants in this time, you won't next time. You have to see what your space can hold.

Read the two articles and see which method you want to try. Good luck!!

If you don't have someone where you are who can teach you (which most of us don't), hands on is what will teach you the most. We all learn from our mistakes as well as from our successes--what we did wrong and what we did right. Hope you post and let us follow your grow!!

What size of the reservoir should i use for one plant? I can lst / scrog. Is 20 gallon too much?

It also depends on what seeds you're going to grow on how many plants you can grow. I have a 3'x3'x80" tent with 2 Vipraspectra 450's. I can grow 4 maybe more short strain plants, White Moscow, Sour 60, and many others. I'm growing Northern Lights from Nirvana right now and 2 or 3 would be the max for me. And as others have said, Training plays a big part.
