New Grower Set Up Question

[LastGemini88]

I know you guys hear this time and time again but here it goes.
60x32x80 Tent
One 300w Electric Sky LED
AC Infinity 6in Fan
I have 5 Smoothie and 5 Purple Lemonade from Fast Buds.
My question is what size pots? 3 or 5 gallon. I’m using the Max Yield Air Pots. And then how many plants? I’m trying to get max yield and potency. The final goal in all grows.
Thank you guys so much. This site has been the most informative place I go.

6 gallon would be overkill imo, even 10 plants in 3gal is going to be extremely tight in that space as well, unless you got some good training or scrog experience. What medium and nutrients are you using?

 

[LastGemini88]

Sorry. I Im asking how many plants would you recommend in that size tent for the best harvest? And in what size pots? 3 or 5. I made a typo earlier. Not sure on the nutrients yet. Right now I’m going with Advanced Nutrients. My medium is Black Gold Waterhold Cocoblend.

I haven’t grown any FastBuds so I’m not sure on the plant size, but regardless it all depends on how well you can train them. Scrog would work well if you have a way to feed them without pulling them out of the tent each time.

I’ve got 3 plants in 5gals of coco completely filling my 72x45x72 cabinet at this moment, and I didn’t plan on them ever getting this big. I also didn’t do any training, only pruning lower growth.

That’s my fear. I guess thats my dilemma. Not sure if I should put 3 gal with more plants or 5 gal with like 3 plants. And you can check out all their strains on their website. They have nice pics and details. I’ve never grown any autos b4.

3 gallon airpots will do you well in coco, which is what I am running these days. How many plants is a personal choice. I like to have a little room between plants.

Thank you for the reply. I’ve seen some pretty good yields in 3 gallon. Just want what is best. Tying to get a half a lb or more out of this tent.

3 gallon is enough to make big girls. 3 plants, strain dependent. Small strains you may get 5. XLarge ...well with 32" across maybe no X large strains.
