Hey guys, Ive got 6, 3 gallon pots here, put in a rectange shape the dimensions are 32" by 21". I was wondering if my little T5 sunleaves Jr IV something 96watt light would be good to veg my autos under? the light doesnt cover the area of the pots below? does that make sense to anybody? please and thank you. starting up an indoor auto grow in the next cpl days (=

Your light is sufficient to veg some small plants, but significantly more lighting is recommended, or significantly fewer plants if you want decent growth.

With the light you plan on using, I suspect your plants will be slow to develop, and probably fairly stretchy due to the lack of available light.

It should be noted that more plants does not necessarily equal more yield. Fewer plants carefully managed can often produce more yield. Worth considering before you start.

Most autos are done by 2-3 months so it you budgeted for one pint a week or half gallon of soil per month you could get your full grown autos to maturity in 2 gallon pots it will reduce the size of your foot print considerably, later you may want to increase the size of you lighting gear strapping T8 shop lights to each side of your T5 or some such
