How many and how large plants in a 4x2 tent for a quick veg/flowering?
How many plants could I have in a 4x2 tent? I would like to reduce veg and flowering time, so would that mean I should go for more plants? I've got 3x 11 liter / 3 gallon Gronest fabric pots and can get more pots. Also, are the nutrients noted in the grow suitable for coco?
