as many as you can fit. Depends on the size of the pots. The strain you are growing. and the lights you will be using. you can fit more savtia,than indica. I would say maybe 6 sativa or 4 indica

1 plant per square foot is what i thought just wanted to make sure.. but i have seen aeroponic systems and they are not space out at all same thing with those stealth grow hydroponics toat boxes.. they are like 5 inches apart

I read you can flower up to 20 plants with a 400WHPS 15 I think would be the ideal number since they are supost to very efficiently cover about 17 square feet somthing like that I forget. sooo 17 square feet eficiently... one plant per square foot... you see where I'm going with this?

I dont know... some of them look like they place the plants 2 inches apart... I don't know how the hell plants are suppost to grow with no room. but when your working with 2 feet by 2 feet... I guess... you do crazy things?... I dont know thoes crazy bastards

That lamp will light an area of 5ft x 5ft, so any amount of plants that you want to fit in that area will work.

ive got a 400watt hps, how many could i fit and flower under that with space not being a problem. I want to keep my mother plant on an aero setup and flower clones in soil. Im going to be using 12" pots probably

well if your getting 12 inch pots then however many you can fit in the space you have will be the magic number.

i have a 3.5' by 3.5' area 12.25 sq ft and i just got an ebb and flow 40 gal system and i will have 36 open spots for a 3 inch pots and they are spaced out a perfect amount.

so according to this i could put them in dixe cups and put them on an automatic watering pump and timer so that they can get the water they need and put 25-35 plants in a 4x4 area? ive seen that monster tree grow in a dixe cup on a watering system like that before......

you could... but it would take a certain amount of skill and esxperience.
6 inch pots are as small as I'd go... but others will say diferent
