How much space do I need per plant?

I've got six White Widow autoflowers sprouted and are at the seedling stage in 3 gallon fabric pots.
They are in a 3x3x7 foot Gorilla tent under a Sun System 315W LEC light. The tent is vented well with a 6" Hyper Fan and plenty of intake square inches.

Should I attempt them all or will it get too crowded? They are short genetics at 2 feet tall mature.

Attempt them all for sure if need be cull out the weak later... I always try to overcrowd the flower stage... Things happen to the best of us

Plus they are already started why kill anything yet.. Even if you have crowding finish them on a sill or some shit

Yeah, I think I'll take a wait and see approach. You're right, I'll finish a couple on my balcony if I have to.

I've run 6x 3gal, actually running 5 right now under one of those LEC's and they fit well. 6x 3gal will typically fill about 3x3'. My best yield runs have been from 4x 5gal which stretched into a 3.5 x 3.5' footprint, that seems to be about the maximum coverage when running them 22-24" above the canopy. But I grow as a hobby, the 3gal runs are typically strains I don't run as often but stay in my line up because they're unique meds.

I'm growing photos next grow. I'm thinking 3 or 4 five gallon pots, LST, and SCROG.

That would be cool, would like to see a proper scrog done under one of these lights, should produce well if you can stretch it to 3.5 x 3.5'.
