1 plant takes 4 sq ft.

 

[Anthem]

2.5 square feet per plant is plenty of space.

the biggest is 160 inches, that is like 13.3 feet!

so, a bucket is ~a foot. and there are 3, plus the room between, so 4x and it looks square, so 4x4... maybe?

you would need 480-640w. that is real watts. LEDs are labeled sort of like the "feels like" value in weather. they are labeled 1000w, and are actually only 100w which is suppose to be like 1000w in other lights. if you look at the actual numbers on yours, i am guessing it is not more than 90 real watts.

do you have a budget? i mentioned the viparspectra because it is a great deal, ive bought them from the start, and this is really a sale.

another option to get a good deal is its amazon prime day today and tomorrow.

Yea budget I can get them next week on payday but not this week

How can I tell if they are male or female

Update on 6 month ol plants lol they growing slowly but still don't look like they are in bad shape so hopefully I can keep em growing..

1 plant takes 4 sq ft.

I just grew 4 plants in 5 gal buckets in basically a 4 sq ft foot print. Admittedly the room is a bit bigger to accommodate equipment etc. I got a pretty good yield too. Don’t have final dry weight yet but it should be around 10 - 12 oz. So 4 sq ft per plant is overkill IMO.

The standard measurement is that 1 plant takes a 2'x2' space which is 4sqft. Without training and trimming, this number is still pretty accurate.
With training: We just did 6 plants in the space of 2.

There is no standard measurement for how much space each plant should have there are too many variables to say such a thing.

Yes I know what 4sq ft is, lol. I’m just saying one size doesn’t fit all. A lot of bud can be grown in a 4sq ft area on more than one plant. I don’t trim but I do LST my plants. I have never conformed to standards. But 4 sq ft is a good rule of thumb for a newbie grower I guess.

My point exactly.

Your plants are not going to suffer from over crowding unless you add a substantial amount of light. If you really take a look at your plant structure and the internode spacing you will see how they are trying really hard to stretch to the light. If you can add some additional light it will help.

Ok thanks

Yes you can checkout my page I'm a Spider Farmer sponsored grower great lights pound it out daily in my bud tents that's what we like Regards OD

How do you become a spider farmer sponsored grower? These are the results from my first indoor grow using kingbrite 240 watt quantum boards from Alibaba.com. There’s so many shitty lights out there but this company isn’t one of them. Very affordable fixtures my 240watt qb was 200$ after shipping costs which were like 60) and the quality was there Forsure!

 

[Moeboi]

Ok thanks

Should I lower light a inch or 2 have it about 18in from plants until I can buy better lighting

 

[Moeboi]

Viparspectra makes a badass light.. I have 4-XS2000's in a 4x8..
These Plants broke ground June 1st just to give you an idea of how much light intensity accelerates growth..
I just dumped the small Plant so the 3 remaining can stretch out more..

 

[Moeboi]

Hey group a while since last post but I got a better light from my friend until I but the proper lighting but is a 6000 watt led light pretty bright but I can tell the difference now they are looking better and I'm using Alaska fish fertilizer evey 3 weeks but any advice on flowering they are flowering now first time ever I made it this far in growing lol I don't want to mess things up any tips going to invest in a trellis net next week doing a 12/12 light schedule think they are all female from the pistols no nubs like male plants

 

[Moeboi]

Hey peeps I recently broke one of my plants just 1 stem with bud on it when I was adjusting trellis net should I cut it off and what should I do with the bud if I have to cut it off its just the one stem off the big plant but so far all plants are still doing good..I touched a bud moving them around the smell was so potent it stayed on my fingers for a log time couldn't sleep cuz I kept smelling it even when I washed them still kinda lingered lol smells great ..Amy info would be appreciated
