How Big Should Your Grow Area Be

 
 
well indicas r fairly small so you dont need to much room, and it's good you only have two.
 
are you living with ur parents? is it a stealth grow? otherwise i'd suggest cleaning out a small closet and making that ur grow room.

 

For 2 plants indoor I would say to go with 5 gallon buckets sooo roughly a 4'X2' setup would be good. 4 feet across which is the length your buckets would be next to eachother and 2 feet wide because 5 gallon buckets wont take up that much room. And make it at least 5' high.

 

 
i think 5 gallon is way to big, i personaly use 2 gallon buckets and my plants still get pretty big. my male reached 32" and he was indica, dont think they need to get much bigger than that.

 

5 gallons are perfect if you implement some training on your plants. 5 gallons+ LST and scrog and your plants wont get tall but you'll still have the bushy plants from the larger container which equals a better yield. I would use 2 gallons to sex or veg if they are femmed then flower in 5's.

 

The box I built is 2'x3'x6'. Right now I have 4 White Widows in it. I'm actually in the process of harvesting it as we speak. They are about 34" tall and are in 3 gallon pots so they are a little crowded. Make it as tall as you can because the lights will take up a lot of space.  

 

i would just grow one ScrOG'd plant in a in a 2x2. Properly tended that space will fill up quick and should yeild fairly well as long as you keep the canopy even. Poor circulation has resulted in more problems and loss of plants than any other variable in my grows. Usually I grow 4-6 plants in my 4x4 under 1000w. 4 plants if i intend to top. each plant taking up about a 2x2. yeilding anywhere from 2-4 oz a plant.

 

Go read the stickies man they will help you.

Try these or their 3 gallon version if you think you'll have room. They will work wonders for you

 

you want to do a small grow with a couple of plants
a 400w hps and a room 3ft x 3ft x 6ft high
will do a good job

don't worry about topping/scrog
on your first grow use 2 x 3 gallon pots
and grow in soil

keep the nutes simple, grow and bloom
you can pull some amazing yeilds with a basic set up

 

Absolute beginners, indoor growers, annnddd the organic section

 

Did not mean to quote wax lol

 

reduce the canopy size to 2.5ft x 2.5ft and drop the light to 10" above the canopy
this will give you more of a dank bud with higher potency
you will need a fan to blow up into the hood to reduce the canopy temp
 
with a 3ft x3ft canopy the needs to be 12" above the canopy, the buds will be a little less dank
but you will cove a bigger canopy so you could yeild 20% more bud
 
but this question is more for advance growers after you have done a few crops
 
after your first crop you want to learn how to get you canopy level and full of nodes/bud sites
 
there so many diffent ways, you can look it up on google
