Questions for 1st SOG grow with GG4 autos

This is my first time doing SOG with my GG4 Autos in soil in a 32x32x63 grow tent.
1. Should I use 1 gallon or 2 gallon grow bags?
2. How many plants can I grow in this small tent?
3. How many times a week should I feed them nutes?
4. Should I also scrog?

1. About 1gal
2. About 9
3. About twice
4. More than likely

If it were me...
1. 2gal bag
2. 1 mega plant
3. 2x a week
4. Full screen scrog at node 8

Lots of weaving an tucking but a full harvest

2 gallons, maybe larger. If you just stuff as many plants as you can they will be crowded and yield poorly.

I see your tent size now. You are better off growing 4 plants at most. 1 would be best. I grow gg4 photos, they like to get huge and if the autos are anything like that you'll have a fight in your hands.

I'm a worried about the height of the plant if I just grow one. I just finish growing two Jack Herer's in a scrog and the lights were maxed out on height.

You are not Scrogging correctly...
The goal of a Scrog is to force the plant outwards horizontally.

You achieve this by re-tucking overgrowth BACK UNDER the Scrog Net...into a farther space...moving outwards to the edge of the tent.

Once you reach the end...then you flower

I was thinking six, but you're right, four would probably be best

This is the grow that just finished, did I Scrog correctly here?

Those are gorgeous girls! So, you think I should go with four in 2 gallon grow bags? I assume I cut the side shoots and just leave the colas?
Quite the opposite. I removed the central colas and trained each plant to have 4 stems. When it was time to flower, I installed an elastic trellis and supercropped each stem (strategically broke the branches so they were hotizontal. As the stretched in flower I kept tucking them back under. This made every budsite on every branch codominant. So instead of big tops and a lots of whispy larf, I get solid knotty buds and nothing else.

I should add this kind of training is nearly impossible with autos. I don't grow them, my picture is all clones from photo moms.
