right now i have about 40 plants going. some are in flower and will be done in 20 or so days. the rest are 6 weeks old now and have been in flower for a week.
im wondering whats pushing the limits...
in one spot i have like 25 plants under a 600 with 3 4 ft t8 floros. im also using a 100 watt hps to add to the side lighting. and im getting full light penetration.
in another spot i have 15 under a 400 with a 4 ft floro and a 100 watt hps for side light.
im groing in 2 gallon bags and someone told me id never get that many plants gooing with the lights i have , but they seem to be doing well.
so i have 15 in a 3 by 3 under 500hps and 2 floros 4 ftrs
in the other spot i have in a 6 by 6 room i built the other 25 under 700 watts hps and a few floro t9 4 ftrs. am i pushing it , should i move the other 15 into the 6 by 6 and hang all 1200 watts hps and the 6 floros i have? what do you guys think?

the majority of your plants looked pretty stretched. only you can really judge how many you can put under your lights, it depends on the size of your foot-print.
