new to this forum but I consider myself a somewhat experienced grower. Been growing outdoors for 10 years and indoors on and off for the last 5 years. Starting up another run but everything new to me. I will be using a 5x5 grow tent with led lighting and have auto flower fem seeds. I have gotten my hands on 10 emerald fire og and 10 Chunkadelic seeds from Humboldt seed company and also some og mix pack from ILGM seed bank. I have never grown in a tent or with led and never messed with auto flowers. With that being said I would appreciate any input you may have. On the the tent the strains the leds any tips at all. I will be keeping a blog and uploading pictures of my adventure weekly. Thanks in advance.

Nice lights, 750w total.
What grow medium you will be using?
I like the name of the strains, it should be an interesting grow blog :weed:

My biggest concern is how many should I put in a 5x5? I’ve tried doing research on average size for the autos but I got 18 inch all the way to 4 foot.

Do not be afraid to feed them. You'll know if you went too far. Had a White Hulk auto last year that hit almost 6'. Huge ass top cola. And then bud rot. But she was a beast for an auto. Fed it just I fed everything else.

Good to know. I was wondering because everything I ready said only feed 1/4 of what you would a photo

4 in a 5x5 would be ideal you'll get maximum light intensity spread right across the canopy.

I run them 1 per 5x5' space right now. I have 2 x 5'x20' rows each with 4 lights overhead. I'm averaging 20 ounces a plant and I'm pulling down 6 plants per/row every 2 weeks then another 6 go out. Doing quite well at this point with everything dialed in.

The op doesn't have a bar style light?
4 is always better than a single source.

Yeah but when I can yield the same results with double the canopy I prefer that. 2,000w of double ended HPS per/5x5 is the definition of overkill not to mention extremely uneconomical.
