Hi fellow stoners
Just after some advice.
I have always ran 4 plants in a 1200x1200x1200 tent with a single 660watt HP's ajustawing
Last run that's near done now has 6 plants in there 1 that's in the middle has ended up really small.waste of a plant/space/food as far as im concerened.raspberry kush as wel
Iv built a new room (well two rooms that will run along side each other with around 6 weeks between)
Iv gone for 1000 watt dimlux fittings 1 light in each room the room is 1000x1300x2100 high.
Given that iv lost a bit of floor space but gained height im thinking of going for 2 plants in each room rather then squashing 4 in.
Any thoughts?
ill be scrogging out with a double layer 1 in veg and 1 once flower is set in.
TIA

I want to get the most out my plants so gonna go with fewer plants to light then
I picked up a light meter on amazon cheap and found usable light enough for a dozen more plants to cycle in my flower room.
I've got ridiculous work space and grow in the middle of it, also use a mover for some. my meter showed great light in a bigger circle than calculated by a chart.

It doesn't appear that you're suffering any. Well done!
I find it's the square footage that's limiting. You can put 4 plants like I do underneath a 1000hid. Or you can put 12 in smaller pots.
Either way if they are the same strain you will yield the same.
I put 4 plants under 1000 watt hid. Same amount of water but less pots to water. But longer veg time...
