    When using the SOG method, how many plants can a 400 watt HPS grow effectively.

    well roughly 6 sq. ft can be effectively lit with a 400 watt HPS to sustain a rate of 70w per sq.ft. ..... so however many you think you can get in there n have ROOM to grow...... :rolleyes:
    id have to guess 5 :smoking:

    For optimum bud density, consider covering no more than 4 square feet--assuming you are using a sog variety like northern lights, black domina, etc. Use reflective walls to maximize light effectiveness--flat white is fine.
    True sea of green=4 plants per sq ft or 16 plants.
    Anywhere from 4 to sixteen plants--I recommend 8.
