Lighting How many plants?

I would go 3 gal pots one plant each and thats a pretty ho hood but in my opinion you will def need to supplemnt with side lighting with cfl... I have 3 plants under a 4ft 6 bulb and if your girls get bushy to get your yield up side lighting will be crucial.... and you will probably need to lst to keep the canopy even and that hood down close.... t5 loses penetration pretty quick especially anything over 12in... I try to keep mine 2 in above tallest piint... good luck with your grow
 
Okay well maybe ill just hijack this thread...
Since I wanted to ask a similar question.

I was thinking with my next grow in the pots room I would start with 1 t5 4ft 8 bulb and then add an led or another t5 fixture. Was think 6-9 plants. Probably like 9 5gal pots. Mind you, these ladies will be photo's

What you all think?

That'll probably get you through Veg maybe 1-2 weeks if you want em' real small but, if you plan on vegging for any time at all 9 might be overkill for that light bud. That's just my 2¢ and I'm not the most versed in fluorescent, I prefer hps. Best of luck!
 
Thank you for your 2 all the same.
