damn, not what I was hoping to hear honestly. haha I originally was gonna do 4, but I figured what the hell, it might shorten my veg time, and I am looking for quicker harvest if possible. thoughts?
I was wondering what my options would be if I got more led wattage going

i run from 6-12 plants and im in 3.5 x 4.5 x 7 foot space, as gajus said somewhere between 4-8...all depends how you want to run it...for my grow I use approx 1 gallon containers for my plants and I can fit 12, but with my 5 gallon buckets I run 3-4 ladies in a scrog setup and I should yield about a halfpound from that space, maybe a little more if the ladies dont have any issues...link to that grow in ma name if yah want to take a look

nice setup, so how many plants is that in the last pic? and who knows, maybe some wont sprout, or hermie idk. 3 of the seeds were cracked and one was missing some of the white meat.

Since you are doing seeds... Take the healthiest of the 8 you currently have and put it in a big ol pot. Ditch the 3 worst looking plants and flower out the remaining 4. Segregate the healthy one to make a mother and put it under 20/4 lighting.
When choosing the mother, look for fat healthy leaves with short inter-node spacing. The bushier the better. Top it every few weeks until you have a nice little bush for cloning.
Doesn't take much to keep a mom alive. I used a single 50W COB in a simple veggie-bin I designed. You could probably do it with 2-4 LED bulbs if you don't want to mess with COBs.

I thought about that too, would hate to do it, as the seeds arent all the same. only 2 are the same. Im not too sure about a mother. i was gonna just cut clones and maybe buy diff seeds after that not sure if I wanna stick with one type of strain.
I just want shorter veg time, but not if it will affect quality. unless I will just need more light, then I will get that. thanks guys.

By the end of the grow, you'll have a favorite
Fancy seeds are expensive, and IMO a huge rip-off in a lot of cases. Find a strain or two that perform well in your environment and dial them in good before messing with several strains at once.
Haha, this is one of those times I feel like I should follow through with what I should do and play it safe, cause if I don't, something will happen for sure lol thanks Gaius, I guees I will see how they turn out and remove a few. I just wanna try a lot of strains, and find some better ones perhaps? or just to switch it up. I'll probably take a couple mothers, since Im gonna get a veg tent set up anyways. I already can't wait to try it!
