Nah, I've seen handfuls of 400 watt grows with 6 to 8 plants, sog'd or LST'd. I've seen 4 nice plants from 250's!I've got 4 plants under a 400 W Hps but that is about it. Anymore would cause a problem. Oops! I lied. I had to cut one but there is room for one more in it's splace.
Thats just the chlorophyl thats remaining in the plant, after a couple weeks of curing you'll start smelling the dank.400w and below i think are made for methods like LST,SOG and ScrOG..
i have a question about the grassy smell you talk about after like a couple days of drying does all bud get this smell then needs to be cured out or is it due to less light intensity?? ive had this problem in past grows.. im about to harvest and want everything to go well..
i was wondering why my buds are light and airy instead of tight and compact and they have a grass type of smell
was it because of the light i used a 400hps
More lumens not watts400w is probly good enough for 2 plants..... any more plants u need more watts
