At what size system do you stop considering it a "micro grow" ?

I think I am a micro grower myself, I grow in a 4x4 tent with three small flood trays and consider that to be a micro grow. Am I wrong? I don't know how much bigger I could go before losing the point of the name. But it seems to me that we are all just trying to control the smallest space around our plants anyways. So for someone it might be a 10ftx12ft room, that's still a micro environment in the grand scheme of things. But I know, most think of a 12inch by 10 inch little box with one plant bent all over the place. Would 7-10 be too many plant to consider micro. I try to stay under 7 plants, my states limit. I do only grow my plants to about 30 inches with a no veg or little veg time. That's why i think I grow micro style.

What are your thoughts?...JR

i think that if it yields more then you can "handle" then it's not really micro..
in your opinion only huge rooms with lot's of plants, or outdoor gardens are not micro?

No i said I think i am on the large size, anything bigger I would not consider micro at all.

I just saw on a different board they have a whole micro section, but all the grows are in CPU's, real small...JR
 
My thoughts are you need to move to a state or county that allows you to grow more so your opinion of a micro grow will change to the point where a 99 plant patch is a micro grow. I'm talking about a little place called Northern California.

don't think there are any laws..
it's just logic.. if it's small it's micro, if it's not then it's not.. micro is just a word...

That's what i am asking...Is 4x4 small, to me it is.....JR

I guess I was hoping for a little discussion and not "if it is it is and if it's not it's not" sort of BS logic
