Depends on your pot size my friend
I'm going to try this style of growing due to space I don't want two tents but I want perpetual as well so my question is. How many plants would I be able to stick in a 4 x 2 x 4 tent?
more or less 14, .. start 4 regular seeds every 2 weeks.
more or less 4 seedlings, 4 young plants, 2 showing sex, 2 in mid bloom...2 that are near harvest
you can get a decent perpetual going in a small tent this size, the good thing,unlike conventional growers, is that your photons are almost always shining on plant matter 365 days a year, very efficient way to grow. I like to keep my solo cups in the large pots that have young plants so not so much of the light is being wasted on soil...
My number one advice if you guys are trying to yield well with 12/12 fs is to go with 5 gallon pots minimum and transplant super early (1-7days from popping out of the soil)
Also to run perpetual, you want to use beneficial insects, because soon or later you will have pests and if you want to keep it perpetual without spraying its the only solution. If you start with a sterile mix and have no pest whatsoever its good to start with at least an application of nematodes for thrips and fungus gnats.
Finally, I have grown perpetually for over 4 years without ever starting from scratch, nor bleaching the room or anything, I vacuum once in a while, clean the fans and stuff but the rooms always have plants, photons are never wasted.
I am generous tonight but if it wasnt for this thread, I might have never become such a seed and strain fanatic...
PEACE
