    Default Plant training advice for a 3.5ft wide x 15ft length x 8ft tall room

    Room is 3.5x15x8. I plan to grow 3 indica/sativa hybrids under 1 600W HPS each. I need to maximize the plant size for my room for optimal yield. I want the plants to be 3ft wide covering the entire diameter of my 7 gallon pots and also 5ft tall.

    Plant training tips, topping, ect...

    Also how long do you think ill have to veg for and flower.

    This is my first grow and I want to make the best of it.

    I was just typing up on how one 600 would not work in a room that size and then I see you said a 600 for each.

    Your lighting is perfect. Having 8 feet of height is golden. I'd actually try to fit 2 more plants in there.

    No need to top, you have height and this is the only reason one needs to top. Take advantage of the height and do some LSTing and bottom pruning, maybe add in lollipopping.

    Either way your set-up sounds about right. Those 7 gallon pots will give roots a lot of room so I hope you have some longer flowering strains to take advantage of all that pot space.

    you could skip topping altogether and just go hardcore LST, I am currently doing 3 pineapple chunk in my journals if you wanna see the method, I got my them as wide as I wanted now I'm letting them go vertical, 5 weeks veg got a 2.5 foot plant to sit nicely at a few inches
