Hey guys, ready to step it up and get me a grow tent. Not really sure what a 4x4 tent looks like in size so how many plants could I fit into one?
Thanks

I currently have 4 in mine. And by looking at space inbetween plants I can prob fit 3-4 more comfortably maybe more if I cut back my veg. And they have been veg for a month and half. Hps arrives today so can't wait to start flowering in mine.

I would recommend less is best give them the time to veg and you will be rewarded more then just packing it with as many plants as you can i did a run last time in a 4.5-4.5 tent with 9 plant and it was packed and some plants didn't like it being in the corner i would say with a 4x4 i would on max do 5

2 top 1 middle 2 bottom and a net lay over the time spread them out and you will still have a great yield packing more is not always good using your skills and bring the most out of less is the best but at the end of the day whatever you end up doing i hope you have a good run and you start a log so we can all watch good or bad its great to document your grow it helps you learn as a grower good luck bro

Plant size is going to dictate numbers. I just had 2 plants that were almost 34" "square" ( tall x wide) each. Crammed into a 4x4 area, there was no extra room in there for another plant, they were already on top of each other. I'm getting ready to try a SOG with 24 plants in the same area, single cola, lollipopped, keeping the height under 40". According to the 4plants/sq ft SOG standard, you should be able to fit 64 plants in a 4x4...i don't see that happening..

I could easily fit 16-20 month old veg plants in a 4x4 area, but that would get uncontrollable in flower. Don't judge your space based on veg plants but flowering plants which are going to be 2-4 times larger by the 3rd week of flower. i see many newer growers make this mistake..load up an area during veg only to have space issues when going to flower.

Well with mine I assume I lose 75% as they will prob be male. I know they get bigger I've grown before. First time using a tent though due to space and where I live now and it's some bag seeds just to dial my tent in before I start doing seeds I bought. My plan when it's dialed in is to do no more than 5-6 plants that are fem. I don't need many plants. So keeping it small for myself
