Best Grow Setup For 2x2x4 Tent & Max Plant Size

Ideally you want to check out Quantum Boards for your lighting, you have a small space so most other lights eill create huge geat issues.

You will need an extraction kit to remove unwanted smells and to get air circulation.. with this size tent i wouldnt worry about setting up inline for air intake i just run passively with the extraction kit.

Id only run one plant in that space, especially a photoperiod. You can easily fill that space up and pull maximum from that tent with one photoperiod.

Maybe id consider 2x Autos as my second plan.

 

hi welcome to GC have you decided what your medium will be soil/coco dws if in coco/soil what size of pots will you be using and what nutrient lines will you use id get a ph pen and hygro meter too

 

Unless you will be growing 1.5 ft tall plants, a 4 ft tall tent won't work.
Most plants are at least 3 ft tall.
Buckets are typically 1 ft tall or more, lights usually need to be 1 ft away from plants, and at least 1/2 ft from ceiling. That leaves 18 inches for growth.

I'd recommend some short autoflowers, something like mephisto 24 carat, or some other very short strains.
Or get a taller tent.

At most one plant will fit a 2 x 2 area.
Forget about co2, it's counterproductive in a vented tent.

Although most beginners are advised not to try hydroponics, it will lead to the biggest growth and yields.
Coming close are some hydro-like setups such as autopots and hempy buckets.

 

@bkarnaze thank you for clearing that up for us i was going to say imo when i used aditional co2 in a small tent it never did nothing like it was meant to but i did 1 in a big room and they was better than alright

 

4 ft will work for veg, then you will need a tall tent for flower. Run a 135w v2 qb 4000k in the veg tent and a qb 96 or a 135w v2 3000k in the tall tent, about 6 minimum feet tall. If you have not used the 4 ft I would return it. Skilled growers will probably soon come up with a foolproof way to grow in a 4 ft tent. I do not know how it would be done.

 

if I were to try and grow in that short of tent id probably do a sea of green grow and go right into flower once they sprouted

 

it will work. Mines in a 60x60x120cm with a 250w hps topped it with LST. Not gunna lie tho another inch and it wouldnt fit.

 

Looks good! But you may need a drip tray just incase your "water proof" flooring leaks mine did it.. but mine was a pretty cheap tent..

I used to have a 2x2x4, i always ran 4 auto flowers in 2gallon pots with no problem. Just have to train . i had the pots in a square shape then trained them out like one big bush together. Max grow yeild i ever had in it was like 110grams. And that was 2 autos and 1 photoperiod.
But if i didnt like to have a variety 2smoke from. I would just run 2 auto flowers at a time In a 3 gallon or one 5 gallon grow..
