crowded plants in a grow tent

[biggerbud420]

i got a 4x4x7 tent i been having around 7 plants in 3 gallon fabric pots in there and during flower the tent gets crowded
my question would be if i have just 6 plants in the tent and they each have more room although not much more room would that make my yield any better ?

I’m learning too. Started with seven oin a 4x4x7’…. I’m thinking one plant every square 4’ is probably a good guideline.

Very impressive

I have some tall, wide, lanky, bud heavy, ILGM WW that are spreading way the hell out.

It’s nighttime now. No pics

The 7 plants seem good, maybe with a little defoliation it would help from getting too crowded.

Would it be better to run 4 with 2x2 space each, or run 9 so you have them all equally spaced and flip a bit earlier, 7 seems like an odd number to run but your tent looks great as it is! But maybe if you ran 9 you could save some veg time.

Again, tent looks great!

Odd numbers like that occur when not everything germinated. You say f-it and run with what you got.

Been there done that. However, for me, I like the extra space. Larger plants but only 4 in a 4 x 4 ... or even a 5 x 5.

and a number like that also appears if you only have those 7 seeds lol

i was just thinking the more open space around each flower the more light gets in . on my last grow i got around 2.5 oz a plant i was just wondering with less plants and more light getting in and around the yeild might be more like 2.75 oz each

I've never only had 7 seeds.

I have hundreds if not thousands, all properly labeled and stored in the refrigerator.

oh the problems of the rich lol i had to save up 2 years of bday and xmas present money to get those 10 seeds lol

 

[biggerbud420]

4 larger plants in a 4 x 4 can yield you 6-8oz of rock hard bud each.

well i cant seem to get a plant thats over 2.5 -3 feet tall lol no matter if it is an auto or photo

 

[biggerbud420]

Not rich, old ... been doing this since the Reagan era.

well i do have more then 7 i got maybe 100 lol but i only had 7 of the gold beans

We'd have to start a different thread and take a look at what you're doing. I'm pretty sure with a few minor tweaks, those 2.5-3' tall babies can become 4 to 5' tall babies ... that is if you have enough overhead space and a powerful enough light for it.

Edit: Oops my bad ... this is your thread

or just find my past threads and read them because everything i did was there

i got 3 cheese and 3 white afghan from ganja farmer seeds in the 4x4 now supposed to be photo im gonna let them veg for 8 or 9 weeks and not top them until there tall

First off, lets start with your pot size, your soil mix and your lighting.

this is gonna be good lol i used the same soil from the aculpoca gold grow which was promix premium organice from walmart 12 dolla bales lol with using gaia green all purpose and power bloom been adding some greenleaf kelp extract to the water , there in 1 gallon pots

spider farmer sf4000 30 inches 50 percent there double the size they were in the pic lol i really didnt plan on doing a thread on them

 

[BB22]

I just gotta say

I was a member of a Hunt Club There was a buncnch of old lady, sowing circle. Bull shiit

Ugh

 

[biggerbud420]

What's the size of your grow space. Working around that hot center of an sf4000 is a challenge. I'm not a fan of large watt quantum boards. Lets put a bar light that fits your space on your wish list.

its ac infinity 4x4 with a 6 inch exuast fan and im happy with the sf4000 i would like a bar light something like @ViparSpectra ks5000 but i will have to settle for what i have
