Coco Grow with P450 and 600W MH/HPS

Hi. I just built my 1st grow tent, 3.5'×3.5'×6'7". I have a Platinum P450 and a 600watt VIVOSUN MH/HPS kit, Coco coir as medium and Flora Trio/Calimagic as nutrient/Supp. Rest are not important somehow in here. also have 7 feminized seeds. 3 of em Critical kushs by Barney's Farm and 4 of em white widows.

How can i effectively use my area? Because its my first grow and i have no grow exp im going to ask you guys some questions.

We all thinking of as mush yield as we can as i do.
Which one is better for me?

● Germinating all seeds i have, With almost no training.
● I cant have 4 plants with 8 cola each in my tent, right? What about 4 plants(3 CK and 1 WW) and 4 cola each?

Whad should i do now? You Ever grown Critical Kush? Can i reach 25oz? Any idea for me?

Oh, forgot something to say. I can control my environment humanity and temperature

I have a 3x3x6 with 10 ladies in it with counted 80 min.tops in all.

Next grow will be less plants same results
 
25oz from 4 plants for your first grow seems pretty ambitious. You'd need to do everything perfectly and luck out with all 4 seed phenos.

Did you read the yields article on GWE too? Based on that your intended yield is possible, you've certainly got plenty of light, but 6+oz per plant is a pretty tall order in coir from my experience. I haven't tried it but DWC seems to be the best yielding approach.

I grow 4 plants in 2/3 gallon smart pots in coir in a 2'x4' tent. I have just under 400w of LED light and I train my plants as best I can. My temps and humidity are not perfectly controlled at all but I do what I can to maintain reasonable levels. I'm on my 4th grow cycle and haven't got more than 1.5oz of dried, close manicured, bud per plant.

Yeah. Ive read every articles in GWE twice. They are all great.
I can fully but manually control my grow tent environment. The good news is that is going to be cold in my city and burning methan and natural gas produce Carbon Dioxide and humidity. Both are useful to my plants. I live in a very dry weather city. The RH rarely goes higher than 20% here in summer. but i have a Humidifier


I know i will make (many) mistakes but just wanted to know is 25oz in a 3.5×3.5×6.5 grow tent possible or not. If it is i will try to get half at least.

May i ask your LED model please?

I have an Advanced Platinum P300 and two DormGrow red UFOs. I haven't been growing for yields specifically and none of the strains I've done so far are typically known as "high yielding."
 
Washing coco coir with very hot water or boiling water has negetive effects on the medium? If so what negetive effects?

Why do that?

sterilization and reducing salt level.

I mixed my coco with warm RO water in 2:3 ratio. PPM of my RO water was 50. But PPM got 900 after i measured my mix.

After i washed it, i got 80 PPM and i think it's still a little high.

You could try a SOG with smallish containers and no training. The challenge there is if the different stains have different heights. I would consider three plants in 5 Gal containers for your first grow but you should have room for 4, 5 gallon pots. Maybe split it; 3 now then 4 for your next grow. Depending on strain and training method, 8-12 oz total would be a nice yield for a first grow. As far as potential in your setup, it may be possible to get 25 but it would really tight in that space. You'd need to have a very even canopy, great lighting and airflow. You'd need nice uniform cola sizes to ensure air flow and minimize risk of PM and mold. Mainline and scrog combo spreads the canopy nicely. Most importantly, keep it simple and concentrate on the basics, just as GWE stresses so well. Oh yeah, don't forget to PH your water / feed. Good luck!
