How should I grow enough to actually do so!?!?

How many plants would you squeeze into a 63 x 24 x 24 tent. That's 5'3 tall, or about the size of Danny Devito standing on 2 1/2 phone books.

You can run four small plants in there if you keep them short, or one big tall bush. I would either do one plant in a scrog or do four plants in 1 gallon containers and main line them to either 4 or 8 nodes each. Check my journal and youll see a bunch of little plants main lined to 4 tops each and ready to give me a good 3/4 ounce per plant. They are in 3/4 gallon containers and aren't even 18" tall.

Depends on your style. you can run 3 lights with ac going through air cooled hoods with 2-3 plants under each light and use a screen. i have a 2'x2'x5' tent and got 18 oz off 6 plants now I have 4 and hope to do better. Do 2 hps on outside and a mh in middle!

I use a tent roughly that size to house mothers or clones, depending on what I need it for.
I like what georgyboy said. It's better to try one or two in a tent that size. Allow for growth.
Start out small and learn as you go along. Best method :D

Three HID lights in a 24" x 24" area???? And 18 oz. from 6 plants in a 24" x 24" area???? My BS detector is going off the chart.

I have a slightly larger tent with two plants that I top for four main colas, so they get really wide and bushy...and then I LST, so it looks like two scrog plants...I couldn't fit a third in there. With a 400W light you should either take one plant and scrog it to use the whole footprint, or lst with two... but it might be tight. You'll have to try it once to see what happens.

I wish he would show us. I would stop doing what I'm doing and switch to exactly what he's doing. I mean 18 zips out.of 4 square feet. Hell I have nine plants in 16 square feet and harvest 6-7 oz every three weeks from three of those plants.

Damn this thread lit up overnight! I was referring to inches... I'm surprised most of you say just 1 or 2 plants... it's really not a small enclosure. I was thinking maybe 4 or 5.

I also have a 600watt switchable/dimmable ballast

Mine too. For several reasons.

Post a picture and then lets have this conversation. I have to see it to believe it on this one based off of my experience.

even 12 hydro in 4x8 (32 sq ft) will leave you struggling with hanging lights, ducting, electrical cords, etc. Not to mention plants trying to fall out when you unzip your tent.
