image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg 600 watt hps = how many plants for flowering?

DWC 4site (small). Also building DWC out of 3 or 4 gallon buckets. How many should I have for this wattage.

Starting a veg closet for mother plants and clones. What size CFLs and how many for pictured closet.

4 plants in 5 gallon smart pots is what I do, I use a 600w hps and I have that same reflector.

In dwc id do 6 in three gallon or four in five gallon, or even two in five gallon under a six hundred. Bit it kinda sounds like youll be going mad scientist and trying to find a good mom so id go with six in threes so you can have lots of variety.
For the veg/mother room id say youll probably be ok with a four foot t5 HO fixture. Keep the mothers small and in dirt. Theyll be easier to maintain if theyre small. And if dwc fails you can flower the dirt mothers at least ;) are the seeds in the ground yet?

Remember - you need 4 square feet of floor space to properly flower for each square foot of veg space.

Good luck, BigSteve.

What's your average yield? I just picked up some 5 gallon buckets today for DWC.
The one I had is a 6 site small 5 gallon box. I only have 4 clones in there that are growing nice

Appreciate your comment. I have one mother (huge) and 4 other strains I'm trying to sex in Soiless mix and perlite. Eventually I'm thinking of adding a 400 watt hid I have the reflector laying around just need a ballast
