Indoor right amount of plants for space

[goingpostal]

Hello everyone this is going to be my first post here....Hopefully more to come...A little background, right now I'm growing a single northern lights auto that is my experimental first grow..it has around 2 or 3 weeks of flowering left I think...Its not the best but I'm learning from you all everyday.

I'm looking to ask for some advice from you...I have a 20 inch x 3 foot grow tent 55 inches high... I was wondering what the best way was for me to get the most yield from my space. Fitting more plants means I need smaller pots which means I will have smaller plants which means I get less yield...Or I can go with just a few big plants and big pots..So which way do you think I would get an overall bigger yield?

Either way I'm going to go with a screen of green setup... I'm worried that 20'' width is only enough for one row of plants...but I've seen videos on youtube with people putting 6 plants in the same space I have...and then some with just one giant tree like plant in the middle.

Anyway any input is useful to me thank you!

If it were me I'd go with 3 plants in a row with that setup. If you're successful but see room for more plants add them on the next grow.

I think your better off going with bigger pots and less plants.Crowding too many plants just cuts the light to the plants and thus smaller yields.
