I agree. 6plants sounds real comfortable for each girl. With a 1000wAtter you'll be in for a good grow just watch the hieght on the lights from the plants you can get real fast growth with such a powerful light. So heads up with light burns. Good luck

you probably could stick to the one 1000@ light but your yield would most likely suffer per plant. i would set that 1000W light on light movers or pick up a second light.

True SOG practices call for 4 plants per square foot... no more, no less...

Lots of small plants is what SOG is about..

this is from the faq. you're right you can go 4 plants per square ft but you can also go more.

You can do anything... with various degrees of success...

Real world info from mine and many other's ops is that if you are doing SOG lollipops, they can be packed to 4 plants per square foot... anymore and you have problems to deal with... any less and you are loosing yield...

and you are contradicting the very quote you posted... weird...

Anyways... I run a nice SOG op and I am sharing with you real info, not what I read on the computer... it comes from DOING IT...

Go with what you know though... :joint::bigjoint:
