Few questions from a newbie

I have 1m X 1m tent (metric) and Mars Hydro TS1000 and I'm planning to grow 3-4 auto plants.
Everything seemed different on the screen. When I bought all supplies, I realized that that I might have made a mistake.
My questions are :

1. Is 1m x 1m tent enough for 3-4 auto plants, and if not how many plants will fit in?

2. I already know that TS1000 isn't great for 2-3 plants, not saying 3-4 and I have two options:
1) To add another TS1000
2) To add TSW 2000W

3. What yields should I expect from each setup?

What would be the best setup in my case? I would appreciate hearing your opinions!
Thank you in advance.

OK well a TS 1000 will cover 2x2ft .
A 1m x 1m is a tad over 3x3 so your a fair bit shy.
Ideally you want something 320-360w range of similar efficiency.
You might find a bit less since your doing autos and youl be giving them longer hours of light but wouldn't expect solid nugs.

1m tent is enough for 4 plants, but autos are gona do what they want and I'd opt for photoperiods so you can have control over the size so you can flip them to flower when smallish.

I wouldn't worry about yield until you've got a few grows under your belt.
A good grower could pull a pound but if you get half that you should be proud to start with, again autos will do what they are gona do and your lack of light is going to limit you too.

I'd send your light back and say the ad was misleading

Yields are based on many things
Medium, issues lighting , genetics to name a few beyond grower skills
Shoot for 3 ounces first run
More light for sure

i’d add another one of those 1000s if those two are your only options that way you can individually adjust 2 lights according to the stretch of the plants. sometimes some gals grow much taller than the others. but if you have the budget i really do think there are better options.
4 is fine for a 1x1m.
dont even focus on yield, focus on quality.

9 sq. feet ( approx. 1 sq meter) needs minimum 300W to maximize your yield.
The light you have will not give you results you're looking for.
Also, in my expereience the best ratio is one plant per 2X2 feet.
So really, in your tent the best advice is grow two plants, three max, and you need 300W LED.

Hey ppl! Thank you all for your answers! I really appreciate them.
