How many plants for a 250 watt light?

texastiger707 · Nov 25, 2012

I was just curious how many plants should I grow under a 250 watt hps light?

veg or flowering? Id suggest higher wattage for flowering but for veg it depends on the size of the plants and the light coverage.

Three at the most. More likely just two.

3 maybe, 2 for sure just depends if you lst, scrog etc and also focus on positioning your pots for optimum light coverage.

I do plan on LSTing my plants or is it better to just let them grow straight up?

LST or Scrog. SCROG is best.
