See this is what i thought too. I just had a guy that owns a grow shop tell me that my 6 plants was too many for my 4x4 table in my 5x5 tent.The rule/suggestion I've always heard is 1 plant per square foot. 4x4=16sqft 16 plants. If that helps.
Im licensed to grow 6. I hate to not be able to grow what i can legally. I only have so much room in my tent. If i get them to big in veg they would be in my light.I never do more than 4. 4 bigger plants I find preferable. For trimming. And ease of maintenance. Root to canopy ratio.
Do you top the plants? Or just let them grow? Low wide plants I find to work best in a tent.Im licensed to grow 6. I hate to not be able to grow what i can legally. I only have so much room in my tent. If i get them to big in veg they would be in my light.
My first grow. I think i topped them right. Im gonna do way better next time though and be on tip of it. So hard to figure a way to lst the plants with an open table under it. Nothing to tie to. Any thoughts? 36 inches from lights right nowDo you top the plants? Or just let them grow? Low wide plants I find to work best in a tent.
Well for anchoring I would get some pipe cleaners or garden wire. And make some anchor points. Help you lay those arms flat. And keep those tops trimmed off. Get it nice and wide. Go 12/12 about a week after you are done topping. Then the day you go 12/12 defolaite the lower portions. And at around day 18 to 21 of (12/12) I would give one final round of defoliation. Taking off most of the leaves.My first grow. I think i topped them right. Im gonna do way better next time though and be on tip of it.

I do 34% h202. Dilluted. Every 3 days. I dont have anything to tie the plant ties to. I can do the outside. But not the inside. What do i do there?Well for anchoring I would get some pipe cleaners or garden wire. And make some anchor points. Help you lay those arms flat. And keep those tops trimmed off. Get it nice and wide.

Do you pre treat for pests and fungus? For example I give mine 3 in 1 once a week until week 3. I find they like it. And it keeps problems away.
If you can get a bag of binder clips and put them around the outside you could have some anchor points. For the inside you could get a few pieces of wood. Put them between the rows with some garden wire pre attached. And use them to anchor to. Or maybe some tomato cages. Once they're lollipoped and defoliated it will be a lot easier to tie the arms down. You could even use a bungee cord up the middle. And tie a bunch of pipe cleaners or garden wire to it. And that should do the trick too. Low. Wide. Lots of air flow. And less leaves. And get rid of the shadows. And keep the pests and fungus away. Those should be real nice. First few times I defoliated I though I killed the things. But it turned out to be my best move.I do 34% h202. Dilluted. Every 3 days. I dont have anything to tie the plant ties to.

Also the reason I recommend safers 3 in 1 as a preventative is that is Sulphur in it and I swear my plants like it. Like it nourishes them. And when I skimp on it I get pm or bud rot. And when I'm generous with it I have no problems. And that safers defender powder is no good for cannabis. The pre mixed 3 in 1 only. If you use that brand. If you've never had fungus and aren't in a risky climate you might not need any sort of treatment. Stuff only works on bugs if you don't have any yet.I do 34% h202. Dilluted. Every 3 days.

Bungee cords. Thats perfect. Thanks! Your a frickin life saver. I know that will work for sure!If you can get a bag of binder clips and put them around the outside you could have some anchor points.

IMO 16 is ok if you flip at 2-3 weeks from sprout. For a 4 week veg, I'd do 8 plants topped once or twice.The rule/suggestion I've always heard is 1 plant per square foot. 4x4=16sqft 16 plants. If that helps.
