How Many Plants in This Crawl Space Grow?

My clones have begun to root and I’ve got 3 but potential to get 6 more (9 total).

- I dug a 72” by 36” by 14” hole and put 2x 36x36x12” net pots in the hole
- I have a net setup for SCROG
- 2x 600watt dimmable MH & HPS lights

The crawlspace from the top of the pot to the bottom of the reflector is about 4ft. How many plants should I put in each 36x36 net pot?

I think more plants would fill the screen faster but I’m not sure how many plants is too many thus affecting my yield and maybe causing mold.

This is some breaking bad shit right here. I'm guessing you arent in a legal area because this is a lot of effort for weed lol.

For that space I'd recommend using all 9 clones in 3 gallon nursery pots. Flower at like 8-10" because stretch and leave 18" or so clearance for the light to the canopy....

If it were me I'd do 18 plants, 6x3 is 18 sqft and 1 plant per sqft would be a nice little SOG. I'm curious how you plan to get water etc down there. Have fun!

Cheers

I’m legal but I live with my parents and space is at a premium. They use pot but don’t like the growing aspect. Still managed to take over their house with my project but it’s important I have chronic pain and friends of the family are getting sick so doing it right is a must. I had to rent a jack hammer with shovel attachment just to break up the clay.

The room above the crawl is a Hydro grow and I have water in that room I just ran a hose through the duct hooked up to a pump and a couple halo feeders. Behind me is an RO system hooked up to a garden hose that comes from the laundry room. To my right is for moms and veg. I also have a linear actuator with a remote so I can raise and lower my lights with a chain set to the perfect height so I can use my drone to check on them. Some day I will post a video of all this. This would be my 4th grow down here but I’ve been running larger plants.

I attached a picture of the pump going through the ducting the big brute Trashcan is for my undercurrent rdwc grow (top off system)


Thank you very much for the help
