Plants close together

I have 10 plants within a 3x4 space under a 600w HPS.
The plants are in 1x1 3 gallon containers. Is this enough space for the plants to grow adequately? My room is 8x8x4.

Plants consist of:
1) Blue Dream
2) Double Dream
3) Girl Scout Cookies
4) Sour Diesel
5) Key Lime Pie

Space ok?

Thanks! :leaf:

you have 12 square feet that the plants are in. I'm no expert but I believe I have read that the rule of thumb is 1 square foot/plant. So by that logic, you seemingly are ok.

Ya that's what I've heard. Good to confirm. Thanks!:bigjoint:

3 gallon containers are too big if you want to do 10 under a 600 in 3x4 . They're not going to develop big enough in that container, 1 gallon pots would of been fine. 600 can cover 4x4 no problem if you have the room. I would just do the run, it's going to be crammed but you will know next time how much you can handle

They seem to work fine. The 3 gallons are more deep then wide. Light spread seems good. I'm on day #10 flowering and I'm see bud sites :weed:
