What's up, I'm a beginner & I'd like to get some advice. So I'm growing 6 different female autos in one plastic container that is 2 ft long 1 ft wide & 1 ft in height, they're growing under a 450w led light. I'd like to know the pros & cons of this. I'd also like to know how much yield i would get off of this, they're 3 weeks old from seed.

I'm not sure about growing like this, not come across this style before so my thinking could be all wrong... Its your grow go with what you want.
I would re pot, you are more than likely to stress them a bit as there roots maybe all tangled up but you may hit a bigger yield as the plants don't fight for root space. I would go for 5-10ltr pots. Now if they have started to show sex as you transplant them you will stunt them and they will not grow that tall ( he's says) but they will still produce good if you grow them well. The technique is a form of micro growing and will cause thick stumpy buds (go read some of the mephisto grow tricks in their section). Plants can produce 2-3 oz this way plenty of evidence on here.
My tip on your next grow is to start them in separate pots (10ltr) and if you have the room you could get any where between 3 to 5+ oz depending on the strain, nutes, light, grow style etc.
 
hey buddy welcome along to the land of knowledge : ) hmmm..... this is a head scratcher though..... what would i do in this situation?....ahah, id have a spliff and a ponder, hang on........
right thats better, heads working now.
id personally cull 3 of them mate. leaving the 3 that form a triangle and then train them out to grow away from each other. hmm..what else id do depends on how much soil is in it? joints do me well for cognitive thinking but not so much for maths :backside:. right f+%^ me ive not had to count in a while lol, 2 cubic feet is??? pft... hmm... a foot is 30cm...... ahah ! aye about 50 something litres i think 54 maybe... your a few inches from the top so lets say 35-40 litres to err on the side of caution. is that about right? its not ideal but that would be enough for 3 plants. 10L a pop is sound. youl still have a bit of a drama with trying to keep them apart and probably some temperamental behaviour from them but theres nothing you cant fix around here. dont know what others will say but thats definately what i would do. if the maths is right then its perfectly doable.you'll probably get some irritating nute problems at some point due to the tangled roots but theres always a solution. got a few thoughts on it already as its the same first mistake i made. thinking i could grow 2 plants in 1 hydro tank. thankfully the guys and gals on here came to my rescue, gave me a good slap about and i pulled 3 buckets worth off that doomed to fail project. one step at a time though eh. what you reckon troops? anyone else agree with me on the cull and train method?

wow, you are gonna have one hell of a jungle in there. Taking three out immediately is a start. Do you have room for fabric pots? each plant needs a minimum space of about a meter squared at it's full size.

Unless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you can also do a sea of green, or a scrog. You should look up scrog tutorials on youtube. It's basically hanging a rope trellis over the plants and tying them down to spread out the tops as they grow. You "might" be able to get away with it that way, but having so many plants in there is going to increase competition for nutrients, and increase disease pressure. If those are all the same strain, you can do it, if they are not the same plant you might run into nutrition management problems. Either way, your yield will be less per plant unless they each have enough room to stretch out.

that makes a lot more sense than what I suggested... you might be onto somthing there.
 
also what's wrong with this plant? why does it have these holes on the leaf?
