his is my first time useing this forum so if my post is in the wrong place let me know. I want to get some ideas on how big my grow area needs to be to grow two to three plants with deep water culture. I don't have much space to work with. For lighting I'm useing Roleadro 400W COB Full Spectrum LED Grow Light. Getting two of the led. Haven't decided on the rest yet which is why im here lol. All help is welcome. Thank you.
 
No Title

I use i little over a 2.5ftx4.5ft area for my two plants. So i imagine with your light you'd want them in a 4fr - 5ft x 4ft - 5ft area. As long as you keep enough height in between the lights and plants for an optimum light footprint i don't assume you'd have an issue even with limited space. Just remember if it's cramped in there you want to maintain good air flow with more than 1 fan and maybe invest in a small dehumidifier later on.

You must be from a legal State to be using your real name. We prefer to stay anonymous. Now to get to your question. No, you can post anywhere. A 4x4 area should cover it. The biggest issue will be when you want to flower the girls. You need a area that is totally dark. No light leaks for 12 hours.
 
Hi Jason :-)

I grow DWC I love it my tent is a 4x4 and I like 2 in the tent, but if you train well you could fit lots.

First grow go one or two and learn from this grow all you need to learn then fill the tent!

If you use 10 gallon tubs 3 seemed crowded in the tent the back one was hard to work on. My tent I could unzip walls so it helped.

I want to chime in and say I agree with the others, you may want to consider having something other than your name as a username, unless this isn't your real name or someone else's than I guess you're good to go.
 
I use a 120cm X 120cm X 200cm (Secret Jardin Orca 120) tent in the corner of a room I can keep locked. I've easily grown 2x at a time medium sized plants in there with a 'KIND 750' and soon I'll be trying 4x tightly trained plants.

My advice with LED would be use as much height space as you can get away with, some of the bigger units can cause light burn on the buds and the K750 for example is advised to be 18" away from plant tops.
