Is this overcrowded?

any response is appreciated.

the area is approx:

1.5ft deep
2 feet tall (for_now)
3.5 feet wide

I have 4 x 150 watt equivalent bulbs(putting out 10,800 lumen)burning 18 hours a day right now, and I'm wondering if anyone has any pointers.

5 white widow clones just transplanted from the clone dome.

and two larger unknown plants that appear to be the same strain as one another.




any input is appreciated.

The more room the better. You can grow in any area, but you may not get the yield you are after. They will double in height (approximately) after you change the light cycle. If you develop a full canopy you will want you cut most anything off that will not get light, when you switch the lights, because they will most likely not develop fully. You can use a method of lst or topping to get the plant wider than taller if needed. I prefer lst, just tie the tops down out of the light until the side branches catch up. It is better to have the plant focus all of its energy on the parts that get a lot of light, not necessarily in direct light but they will need a lot of it to develop properly.



Now that the pics are posted you will have to adjust the information above to suite your situation.

I didnt know your plants were of different age. You will need to prop up the small ones so they dont get smutherd at some point, you should look into setting up a different room for flower. I would not flip the lights on all of those at the same time, not unless you do alot of pruning on your big ones until the small ones catch up.

prolly more to but i want to post this before the un-edited version is read.

honestly, it doesnt seems overcrowded at all. it may be in the future when they grow up tho. the 2 bigger plants seems a bit droopy, over/under watered? but looks good man. as long as there arent leaves blocking light, hanging over another plants squeez as many in there as you can! lol

thx guys. and yes It was under watered jumbo


yes, I do plan or letting the little guys catch up. It should only be another month or so till their as tall as the large ones. having another room for vegging would be absolutely a dream. Its not an option right yet though. sucks, I know.
