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 just saw this so I decided to read the question again. I always measure lengthxwidthxheight. So when the first measurement was 63 I assumed 5 feet long. But if you look at what I said.. I said I have a 600w in a 2.5x2.5 and got 18oz. one light. I was suggesting 3 lights for him because I thought it was 5x2x5. :)

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.

If you look at my profile I have my journal. It is from start to finish, exactly what I used and includes pictures of them drying taking up 5/8 of a closet. I will have another journal in a month for gdp. Same style hoping for 32 oz. Can dream right? :D Btw.. this grow am using 4 plants in a 2x2. Next grow I will be using 2 plants.

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.

I don't have plants falling out problem because the plants are in the screen. It eliminates needing anything to hold them up. In fact if they grow too tall over the screen I use pipe cleaners to tie them down to the screen again.

View attachment 2412434 Here is a 4x8 tent. it has 12 ladies in it under 2400watts. temp is at 79F. That guy saying 6 plants in a 2x2 room is pretty ballsy. He is either doing something wrong or taking shortcuts somewhere.

Take a look at my journal. You will see. air flow plus spraying micro bacteria that not only eats but prevents mold in the future.. :)

I know this thread is a few days old, but Rob0769, I went through your journal pictures and I can't find anything thats shows a complete picture of your setup, only closeups of the plants.

I have a 2'x2'x5' (or very close) grow tent that I have a 400W MH/HPS in. Right now I'm doing LST to get the plants to grow horizontally, but am also thinking about doing a scrog on top once I start flowering them. I don't know how the hell you packed so much into that 2' x 2' area. Your harvest pictures seem like that much flowers simply would not fit into that little of an area. I am very interested in trying to get something close to what you got.

Got any pictures that could help me get a similar setup?

Yeah I will take a picture tomorrow. The lights went off 30 minutes ago. I got your private message. When I get to a computer I'll respond.. phone doesn't like me writing responses and won't put the cursor where I click haha. I run ac through my light intake though. That is how I control temps. No ac through the light and the hood gets hot and radiates heat. very bad.

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.
Dam, that's not a tent, that sounds like an upside down sleeping bag, a short one at that.
ONE plant.
