Really depends on the kind of light and if LED, is it 1000W equivalent or is it a 1000 watt draw from the wall? Many cheaper units describe themselves as 1000 watt equivalent, but only draw 100 watts!

That's the biggest issue—many growers make impulse purchases without fully understanding what they're buying. It's important to take the time to research different lights, make a list of key criteria, and understand exactly what you need. This way, you'll be able to choose the right lights from the start.

You could do a sog, 100 plants in 2ltr pots, only give the plants a week in veg but your only pull 4 to 8g per plant or you could do a single plant( scog)
Takes 7 weeks in veg and pull 400 to 600g so in theory, a sog will pull a higher crop but it's a nightmare to set up and the cost of seeds etc

12 plants would be a good amount.

A 1kw hps with the right reflector on a light mover will cover the same canopy as a led, most of its down to your setup,


It's good fun learning to grow.

When growing in sog if ur in soil how big of pots would u recommend I'm using organic Gaia green top dressing

Adding this for anyone searching the same thing: our grow lights by tent size guide answers it in the FAQ. First check what the light really draws at the wall, since many "1000W" lights pull 100 to 200 W. Plant count then comes down to training: a 5x5 can hold one big trained plant or a couple dozen small ones.
