Lighting How many plants?

[Trillionz]

Hi AFN I have a t5 4ft 8 bulb lamp in a 6x3ft 6 1/2ft tall room. I want to grow six auto's in 3 gallon smart pots. Do I have enough room for them?

can you tell us more about your lamp like how many lumen?

 

[Trillionz]

During veg I'm using 6500k ho 40,000 lumen I plan on using 2700k bulbs during flowering.

Thanx. I'm growing cream of the crop cash crop

 

[Trillionz]

Should I use 3 gallon or 5 gallon pots? I want to get the best yield possible.

I think your gonna do 2 plants in each pot? if so 5 gallon. and later try getting as close to 80K lumen when you are in bloom.

 

[Trillionz]

OK thanks a lot

wouldn't 3 gallon pots with one plant in each pot work better. don't want the plants competing with each other
