Maximize small space?

I'm planning to grow 4 plants in a 100cm×50cm×180cm. What training method is the best for making the plats as compact as possible? The strain is F1 Epsilon (AUTOFLOWER)by RQS and is a small strain. Thank you.

look like a closet size...😏 personnally two run of two plant should be a better option, according to g/plant.

I can cram 4 into a 60×60×150 tent but it's mayhem when I do. I'd recommend 2 or 3 as 4 is a pain and there is to much fighting for space and 1 will usually loose the battle for space.

Pretty tough to plan anything out with autoflowers. You don't dictate vege time. with photoperiods i'd shoot for 4 primary colas per plant. If vertical space is a concern, use a scrog to keep things short and spread out canopy foundation before growing vertically. Can't really do that with autoflowers unless willing to cut off some potential excess growth. Can't control vege time, so you are stuck with whatever growth the plant gives you. Since they are likely small plants, this may be perfect without much work from you, but if one seed deviates might requier some imagination. you are at the whims of the autoflower, so you can take what they give or force them to be what you want at the expense of wasted growth/resources/your time.

I grew 3 of these epsilon’s last year, and the tallest was only 18 inches from the soil. I applied a little lst on them- but never go too crazy. If I remember correctly these were harvested in week 11.

I agree with Papa T. 4 plants in that space is going to get very crowded and airflow will become a problem. 2 plants will fill that space easily. Height is the one side you do have space, so don't use intense light to keep them low. You want autos to grow as fast as possible and any stunting will have a very negative impact on your yield.

Train the shit out of them to keep em low, LST, and give them more intense light to stunt their growth. Can also try topping or just not growing so many plants in a smaller tent. The big issue is going to be airflow later on when they get bushy. Its going to be hard to keep it fresh and this can lead to bud rot and WPM. also diffrent tent sizes then I'm used to seeing. Best Of Luck!

Scrog is probably your best bet for training. I think 4 plants in that tight of a space is ambitious. They’re going to end up fighting each other for space midway through the grow. More plants doesn’t mean more yield per square foot. Honestly I think you’re better off growing two plants and fill the canopy that way. Because two plants will fill that tent size. Anyway you do you. Good luck with your grow.
