hey y'all whats gong on?
got my grow under way here (link in my sig) and i'm just considering the setup i have going and some second thoughts i wanted to ask you guys what you thought...
my tent is 20x36x62 inches. if you do that math it comes out to 4.98 sq ft. i have 5 plants going now, all female. 3 are ryders, the other regular photoperiod.
with a 400w light that comes out to 80 watts/sq ft. i have read that at least 50w/sq ft is optimal, anything above will only help the girls. using this logic, 5 plants should be okay and provide good yields with that figure in mind, HOWEVER, i am concerned that crowding may become an issue. even if the riders finish in 2 months, giving the big girls another full month to finish and branch out, is this grow too ambitious? the girls are already all sprouted so i'm going to go full speed ahead until i run into issues but it would be helpful and nice to hear legit feed back on this from some experienced growers out there.
+rep as always with me. thanks in advance. stay burning.
