Looks good mate.. You will be able to grow 2- 4 good sized plants in there... It is hard to tell from the pics the exact size of grow area, but i would grow 2-3 plants in there.. Height may be an issue for you from what i can see, so i would suggest growing an indica type plant or a strain that stays small and bushy.

What Strains do you have in the greenhouse ? If you have bagseed it may be hit and miss.. I grew in a small area years ago and had a tough time keeping my plants tied down.

Good luck

Hey jamesz01, your girls look good, I leave my exhaust fan on 24/7. But that's just my preference, I like fresh air when I sleep, and so do my girls. What light are you veggin under and whats your light cycle? Sorry if I missed this?
Take care of your girls, Peace.
