Yes, that's why I switched to the 5x5. Crowded! Usually do 3 rows of 3 plants and that still maxes out the 5x5. Could cram a lot more and do sea of green, but need to keep it below a certain number. The main problem with the 5x5 was getting enough light into the corners and the light that I got solved the issue 100%

Being in a 4x4 bed limits a lot of the versatility of moving plants around. If I wasn't in a bed, I would have done some more homework on 2 lights. There isn't any really good options at 5'. The corners are too low compared to the rest tent
I played hell trying to find a tent that fit my available space but finally did...3 x 5, the two lights I got fit it perfectly, and my six autopots are golden as well.
 
Sounds like root rot. Hydroguard or peroxide will help but they're gonna be stunted if they're autos

Yeah, I think I finally figured out what was going on.

The plants in my old dirt are growing awesome.

Plants in the new dirt I just made up, are doing terrible.

I PH tested the runoff from the new dirt...and holy jeeze was it high. Like dark dark green. So like PH 8 or worse.

So I mixed up some pretty acidic water, picked 2 of the worst looking plants, and over about an hour slowly soaked them.

Then checked the runoff. Light green, almost yellow. So right around 6.0-6.5. Right where I want it.

I have no idea why the dirt would be so basic. I've never used that brand of soil before that I mixed with the coco, so...who knows. What I do know is that I think it was so basic it was making the plants grow terrible.

I picked two as an experiment. If in 24 hours they are perking up and looking better, I'll do it to the rest of them.
