400W in 3x2x5 tent how many plants?

Hey there rollitup, i just planted 4 Ice Berry seeds into my veg chamber today(a cardboard box with 4 23w cfls in it).
My question is: how many plants should i put into my grow tent when these babies pop up, im gonna veg for about 3-4 weeks and then flower. The dimensions of the grow tent are 36"x22"x62" so thats about 6 sqft in area to put plants and a fan to move air around. I was planning on planting six seeds total(4 Ice Berry, 2 Aurora Indica) and getting three females that will be finished in the tent. would this be enough of should i put another female in the tent as well?

I'd say 3 would fill it up nicely. I'm doin 4 in a SCROG under one 400w light and I'm thinkin 3 would have been perfect once they're stretch is done..jmo but whichever you go with keep them SHORT and fluffy for best results. If I hadn't have scrogged mine chances are they'd be rubbing my light right now :/ Happy growing mane!

my tent is almost the same size .. and it does 3 nicely ..

happy growin

I have 6 in the same size tent in 3 gal smart pots under a 1000watt bulb running through a cool tube with circulation at 440 cfm

With a short veg period I would push the plant count to four and max your harvest.

I have a similar size tent with four plants using LST under 400W, and it's pretty crowded, but doing fine.

i have 2 plants in about the same size tent, im using LST and and some supper cropping, its pretty crowded but i jsut keep tieing down. my plants would prolly be around 6ft tall right now had it not be tied down, im about 2 weeks in to flowering so i have alot more tieing to do

1000w in a 5 foot tall 2x3 tent?...why? You can easily maximize that space's potential with a 600w. Also, you must have your ballast turned down or are using a diffuser to not get light bleaching from that distance. Perhaps a lower quality bulb and/or ballast.
