I currently use this system. I have successfully harvested 7 plants at once in a DR80 (30"X30") tent. First grow yield was 8 z's

what would happen if i put all 15 plants of low ryder(lets say auto ak47 and auto white russian) 2 plants per week, so i kinda get a harvest every week or so. think id get an ok yield?

That would be a total grow of only 7 weeks. Don't think that's long enough.
Anyways, harvesting every week will take over your life. Shoot to harvest
once a month instead buy placing 3 new ladies in every 3 weeks or so. You'll probably never be able to get the Megagarden to full capacity for the simple reason that it only holds about 7 gallons of nutes, you will be chasing the ph levels daily not to mention the nute levels as well. I had 7 total going, and IMO could have had another 1 or 2 at MAX. See pics.

so whats the closest they should be together? im tryin to do this with the least amount of space possible.

This is what 7 looked like. Pretty busy, but then again I use limited space.
My space is 30 in X 30 in X 5 ft.

well im thinkin of growin some of the low life plants, they get 1-2 ft tall and are done in 8 weeks. so my idea is they wont get so wide...but i have no idea of the exact measurements of any plant really. thats why im asking questions...
