Typically you want to have about 30-40 true watts per sq ft if you have a high quality LED, which ES is! It is a little low on power for all 8 sq ft, but you should be fine if you properly manage your light height. Plant number is kinda irrelevant because it is all about canopy coverage and space filled. If you are vegging for longer, you can use less plants, shorter veg times more plants. I would recommend 3-4 plants for Veg and then cut that number down to 2 for flower. 4sqft per plant will give you lots of space to let them grow out and help maintain a stable environment in your tent. happy growing!! 👊

With that light you can cover half the space in that tent, that is 4 sq ft. How many plants depends on how long you want to veg. 1 plant per sq ft needs 4 weeks of veg, 1 plant per 2 sq ft will need to veg at least 6 weeks, only 1 plant fir the whole 4 sq ft needs 2 months of veg. Keep in mind that yield depends on the light power you have, not the amount of plants.

Currently I defoliate selectively every 2-3 days, so only single leaves maybe 10-20 total of 3 plants

Remove leaves from auto?Should I remove fan leaves from my auto flower? I wonder since it is so crowded, I worry a bit that the leaves are pressing against the buds. But maybe that isn't a problem? I've read that removing leaves is unnecessary and stressful for the plant.

Defoliation late in flower on Auto'sI like to defoilate, If I were to pick majority of the fan leaves off of these plants being Auto's, will they react or stress too much? I like to defoil near the end of flower to really push all the focus to the budsites. Happy Growing!3 months ago

Northern Lights Auto, quite short and bushy, fan leaves shielding light - should I defoliate?First time grower with a quite short Northern Lights Auto in week 6. The fan leaves seem to shield a lot of light from the inner leaves, also touching ground. Should I trim the fan leaves? Or should I keep them, since it already seems stressed enough for it's short life…

So many leaves! Should I defoliate even more?I defoliated just before and even during the first week of flowering, but she keeps growing so many leaves even during the second week of flowering.
Should I defoliate right now or wait a couple of weeks? I worry I could halt the flowering or cause even more useless stress...

Light DefoliationLooking for suggestions and opinions on "light defoliation".
What percentage of leaves are removed during a light defoliation? This is for my short bushy Wedding Glue. Should I just remove the biggest fan leaves and call it a day? Thanks all!

Lower growth removalok so Ive let the girls grow with very lit to almost no training except leaf tucking. My ? is when can I remove all this lower growth. I haven't removed anything cause my growth has been explosive and don't want to slow it. When can I safely remove all the lower growth w/o harm?

Just Stopped Stretch! - Gotta Do, What I Gotta Do?Against protocol I have hacked on this plant in Week 8. Way branchy! I got into pruning a dozen long scraggly lower runners. I could take out another 12+ wimpy branches easy and open it up good bit for light/air - and then leave it alone? Much anticipated waste, so gamble?Week 8
