Hello fellow growers, this is my second post but im following growing forums for a few years now. this is my first serious grow, i did some DIY and outdoor grows before but not much of an experience. Im planning to get some good grade herb for my friends and myself. Yield-quality are the most importants factors :)
-6.5x6.5x6.5 grow tent
-1250 cfm max fan pro
-4x600 watt hids with winged cool-tubes
-4 and 5 gallon pots, biobizz all-mix soil.
My strains are from seed and getting 24 hours from the start and now they are 2 and half weeks old and looking perrrfect.
i have 24 plants alive but they are affordable to choose the perfect training. i was thinking about scrog but differents strains worry me.
5x cookies kush
3x other kushes
10x mostyle sativa dominant hybrids
2x chocolate haze
so what do you think will be the best method to get best yield results?

Am I reading this right? Are you saying you wanna put 4-600w lights in a 6.5ft x6.5ft tent? You are not going to get 20 5gallons inthere.

2 lights, as many smaller buckets as you can fit under them is what Id do.
I had great fun flowering at 18 inches in one gallon bags in a similar tent.
put a pan under the plants and enjoy!

then in how many should i get in there ?
2-600w are plenty for that tent. If you want all 20 In there they would have to be in know bigger then 1gallon. What I would do is a 35 day split. Keep plants vegging. Put half of what fits in room in there to flower. In 5 weeks add other half room. If you keep your 24 vegging as you pull what you need you will have a decent haul every 35 days

i thought 4x600 watt is enough because 50w/sqft is only achiveable with them. i use 4x400 atm and i didnt think its enough. i am thinking to put 20 in there first that makes 2sqft/1 plant. if it will go well i can take out maybe 5 of them to earn space before stretching :) i should stick with my 18-15 lt pots.

no, no sea, no screen, just plants in one gallon bags, in a tent, flourishing without fuss, like this
(big foot, flood/drain/technaflora nutrients, 600hps, room had ac, dehuey in it, along with seven more tents, for aperpetual grow with finesse. since moved to a dedicated out door building, with a grow room inside, 200 amp service, sealed, c02, baseboard heat, light controller, one room 12x30, divided at 10 by a light lock "S" curtain. tents were cool, but when I grew my first #18 in dirt buckets with organic ferts I was sold, still am since, and growing in dirt inside my home sucked. now, walking to the grow room through the snow sucks too, but, who's complaining

I still dont see how you are going to get 20 In there. I have a 5x5 and can only fit 8 5gallons with topped and trained plants in mine. I dont see how you are gonna put 2.5x as much in there being as its not even twice as big?

they are 2and a half weeks old now and 20 of them sits in the tent under 4x400 watters. do you mean they dont fit in when they flower? yes im thinking of this and asking that how many should i put in. in the picture there are 20 pots under the worst reflectors ull ever see. i put them together cuz my cooltubes havent arrived yet, maybe 2 day later.
