I cant fit 4 mature flowering plants in a 3x3. I like 2-3 max. Did 15 oz with 3 under a 315 cmh.

How can there be 10? :-)
I need more $$$$ to add light's.......... I was thinking 50% m..50% L and so far I have only had 4 males...... I ran 5 CG though and planted outside also......
Had 13 in there at 1 time.....

Got 8 5's and 2 1gal paint cans in there now.....

I'm all most into week 7 0n 2 of the BFT.... and the other 3 are a week behind... then everything else is within 2 weeks of those.....

I actually have a 4x8 but only a 4x4 footprint for lights. I would love to get 1 more but I will be tempted to grow more than 5 plants lmaooooo. Im already tempted!
I have 4- 5x5 panels and only 5 ft under the light 5 full size plants is all I can do with fans + humidifier or dehumidifier maybe 6 if I cram them in but 5 in flower fills it to where I can't maneuver the plants in 3 gallon pots any longer. I guess that's why they flip at 5 weeks no room in flower if you let them grow.

I plan on vegging a little longer as I plan on trying mainline training on a couple. I never see or hear anybody using mainline. I came across Clockworx's thread and sounds cool lol

Looks like with proper balance you can repot seedlings & balance them on edges of other pots, they will be higher & it will not be ideal but its doable for couple weeks here & there in veg (not in flower). Just have to watch humidity & airflow little more while severe overcrowding is happening

Thanks @DreamsOfDiesel, i ended up deleting my post because i was all like "ehh im just an idiot i need to figure this out" lol.
I just feel like the plant is suffering in the smaller pots.

Honestly, since this is a practice plant to me and i know i can do it now, (i had past issues when i first started here, i couldnt grow lol) i might as welll just "cut my losses" literally and just move along. i might just chop it just to free up some room, and balance it out better. but if im going to lose alot of my work, then i want to keep her going, i worked hard on this.

Some of the guys here who have been following me for a bit, or rather, trying to help me for the past few months will know how eager i am to get this off the stalk. but then again, i feel like im completely out of space for the new seedlings, i feel like if i dont get them into one gallons soon, im going to have issues.

Can i keep small seedlings in a small small nursery pot for awhile and just water everyday? they dry, QUICKLY in these small pots. making me assume i gotta get them out. Keeping them in the small pots, would allow me to keep the tents where they are at.

if i transplant into one gallons, i need space.

I've got 12 1 gallon pots, 9 solo cups & a tray of seedlings in 2x2 veg tent lol. I dont believe in cutting my losses on things I've put effort into, I'm stubborn. We all can only do what is right for us

Yes, they wont grow as fast if rootbound but with proper care they will survive just fine
