New Grow - ideas welcome.

[Boru420]

hi everyone

ive just joined the forum so i hope to meet some like minded people who like to share wisdom or maybe a musing or 2.

ive just finished my first grow and im getting ready for my second. i only have a 120x60x180 space to use but im not sure was the best number of plants to put in it. my first 2 fit just fine. but im thinking of doing 5 master kush. ive been watching a lot of videos on youtube and the plan, at the moment, is 5 master kush in 5 gallon fabric pots. topping and light training. i want to fill the grow space with as many main kolas as possible.

any thoughts, ideas or links to videos would be greatly appreciated.

A 2'x4' spaces, I assume u meant in cm

 

[Boru420]

yes mate

 

[GeneBanker]

I’m hoping he meant inches with 5x #5 pots
As I typed this you updated to cm. That’s a tight fit

 

[Boru420]

yes im thinking it maybe just 3. the fabric pots are 30cm x 30cm x 25cm, this is what im dealing with. theres too much wasted space..

 

[BobThe420Builder]

Ya pretty small space for 5 plants

I do 5 in a 4'x4' space

Maybe try 3

 

[Boru420]

yeah, im thinking maybe your right. when it gets up and running ill post a few pics anyway. cheers bud

I think in the end you’ll be happiest with 3. It’s no fun with no room

If you weaved them through the netting you would have achieved a 'canopy'

i weaved the other girl and the buds fattened up nicely, they feel real compact.

My thoughts exactly?
You could have filled the screen and had a full canopy, you flipped it way too early, imo 2 maybe 3 for your space.

ive 5 seeds just sprouted for go number 2 mate, hoping second go does better but cheers for you advice, ill be filling every bit of space this time.

Vegging 2 plants in 5 gal pots for 6 weeks will fill your space just fine. I had 2 auto's and a feminized photoperiod plant in the same space... had to move one of the auto's to another tent. I have been in veg with the photo plant for 5 weeks. It will veg another 3-4 weeks when the auto is done and I'm sure I will fill my space with just the 1 plant.
