Grow Space Large Enough?

So I made this 10x10 greenhouse. I leave the sides open when it’s nice out and if there is big storms I can close up any number of sides I need.
My question though is, is this space large enough for 6 plants. This is my first outdoor grow. I am growing the plants in 25gallon pots minus one. Still thinking about getting a larger pot for this plant as well. I just recently set up a scrogg net covering a lot of the area except around the edges so I can still get around the grow area.

Do you think I need to move two of the plants and make another grow space?

do you think this scrogg net I set up is good? After setting it up I realized it’s going to be a little tricky getting to the middle of the plants but I think I can reach across and still get to the center. Also, I can get under the net through the middle.

thanks for the feedback in advance

You had better go bigger on the greenhouse.
That is way to short, and not big enough in either direction for that many plants. Well unless you are going to do light dep.

If youare going to going for the whole season, it's going to be too small.
What ever you decide to do,,, good luck friend!

So I’m going to move two out of that greenhouse. Leaving 4 total In a 10x10 grow space. The peak of the greenhouse pictured is 9 foot. Do you think they will really outgrow that 9 foot height?

my thought was if I just had 4 plants in there with the tressele I could really spread those 4 plants out across the entire grow space training the main stem towards the center of the greenhouse where it’s 9 foot

They are all feminized. 2 of them are indica leaning hybrids and the others are Sativa.

Does anyone have any easy greenhouse solutions I could make that is tall? How tall should the house be?

They all can’t fit in that peak and yes they can you don’t want them rubbing on top. If you control the stretch you might get lucky. Good luck

I'm thinking 4 will work good, 5x5 for each, you can keep the height under control if you train and prune them as you go along.

A good green house solution is to build a pvc hoop house. I have a 16x24x10 that held 5 plants well. I was still in a constant battle to keep them off the peak.20201031_133556.jpg20201016_112223.jpg
You will need extractor fans at the peak and fans everywhere for air circulation and ventilation. My ends were screened as were the sides, under the roll up plastic sides. Once it gets cold you can cover the ends and roll down the sides.

Same. hoophouse 14 ft wide. 24 long and only 6 plants in 30 gallons each. I am forced to move a plant out during mid to late flower to increase airflow otherwise I mold. You will want to get a few small fans to keep the air moving, I use a standard box fan on a controller: https://www.amazon.com/Inkbird-Itc-308-Temperature-Controller-Thermostat/dp/B011296704/ref=sr_1_8?dchild=1&keywords=inkbird&qid=1621641091&s=industrial&sr=1-8

Mine are in homemade, raised bed, fabric pots, with access to the native soil. So no moving any plants out for me. That and it's not legal to grow outside in Illinois.

Either way it's all about ventilation and airflow.

I'm surprised no one has suggested topping the plants. I top all of my plants, indoors and out, causes them to divide their energy across more branches rather than concentrate so much into that "xmas tree" peak, which tends to make them bushier and shorter. Just a thought.
