So, your surface area is 60 cm by 120 cm. 1 plant veged 4 to 5 weeks and then taken to flower (or using autos) will take a space of 30 cm by 30 cm, so you could grow 8 plants; you could also veg 2 or 3 weeks longer and use half that many plants.

Hello ! Well I'm an Haze fan and 4 of the soma amnesia can be enough with such a space ause they are growing tall and wide so if you wanna make a long veg and some training then 4 is good with some big pots (I let you choose the size but minimum 25L) but if you wanna get a shorter crop then you should go with 9 plants and a short veg in 15L pot( once again it is a very tall strain ). I hope it will help you 👍😁

Hi @Hicksey! Well, everything is about the available height, if your height is 120cm, you can grow any photosynthesis strain, if you control their heights with LST / Scrog / Supercrop / Mainlining... You will also have to manage your schedule, and trigger flowering when the plant is about 30-40% of the total height. Now I won't recommend autoflowering strains for your tent, since you can't really control their heights as you wish (actually you can but it's way harder and extremely risky). If you don't want to work everyday on bending your plant or trying HST approaches, then consider indica-dominant strains, they tend to be smaller and grow like a bush, whereas sativa-dominant strains are tall by nature, and tend to have long inter-node-spaces. I am currently making experiments with "Kosher Kush", an indica-dominant strain from ReservaPrivada, I really like how it grows and it's going to be a beast with many nodes, check out my diary ;-) Hope this will help, keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊

Hi, either you grow 3 Girls in a11l Pot, or one in a 35l Pot. that is in my opinion the Max. for your space. So your plants get big , healthy and get enough Light

Hello @Hicksey ! Your set up is like mine but with one difference . My height is at 160 cm. I design the closet to be small and efficient and 160 cm height according to my culculations was the lower height i could go with having no problems of heat and being afraid of plants touch the light . And all that by having in mind that i always going to grow using some kind of training technique ( HST ,LST, SGROG, SOG or a combination of them ). So you have a very big challenge with 120 cm height. The number of plants depends from what you want to achieve, how long you are willing to wait how good grower you are and what technique you are going to use. A bad grower can put 8 auto's because e can't make them big while a good one fills the area with only two. The most efficient grow i have done at this size was by using a sog technique. I have gown in the past 24 plants at 1L fabric pots, straight 12/12 light cycle from seed, 2x250 watt HPS and i managed to pull 24 big colas around 30 grams each and total dry weight 713 grams. Easy, no training no nothing. It was the best grow i ever made but it was also the most anxious because the laws at my country are very strict and 24 plants can put you to jail for very long time no matter the size the plants have. It was fun but i never did it again. Now i am growing with scrog technique, two plants at 15 L fabric pots with 400 watt HPS when the weather is hot like now and 2x259 watt at winter. I usually pull 200-280 grams dry weight at summer and 320-380 grams at winter but i have pulled a few times500-520 grams. When growing in small spaces like this you need to give very big effort to the training. Check out my diaries if you want. I hope that was helpful. Happy growing ! 👊

I use the same size tent. Plant count doesn’t necessarily mean more yield. It’s all about surface area. You will yield the same amount with 1 plant grown out to fill the tent as you would with 2 or 3 plants in the same space. Growing 1 plant to fill the entire space will of course take longer, so it comes down to personal preference. Myself, I like growing 1 at a time, but sometimes I’ll fit 3 different autos in there for some variety. Hope this helps!

Hey man personally i'm a big fan of autos, the new ones like gorilla glue or the new ones from mephisto illuminauto, they're bigger than average that's why. You can basically fit like 2 of those in 10gal pots, comfortably, which is nice for them. 600W dimmable start them off on 24H 250W then up it a bit towards the end of veg. You should be able to get 5/600g wet with some of the larger yielders. Haha jokes all the way. 10gals fill that space up, you can do it 3 pots for less volume but my favorite autos love it 10gal really big difference in yield.
