  1. First and foremost THANK YOU to any and everyone who helped me along the way in what I like to call my "trial run" which isn't officially over still growing purple hulk auto she has a few weeks left in flower not a great grow but she's been good to me (pics included) had it growing in a 4x4 in ffof under a 300 watt led 8 inch inline fan and carbon filter had a little trouble with temps since Florida has summer all year long lol I would say it's not been horrible.

    I've learned so much but still feel as if i know nothing...
    This next grow I have more flexibility financially so I'm going to be going big (go big or go home right ) well big for me at least I plan on growing:
    *6-8 autos in 7 gallon smart pots (white widow auto)
    *1200 watt (replacing 300 watt) led I am getting
    *One more 8 inch fan to exhaust
    *12k btu indoor air conditioner
    *Fox farm ocean forest soil
    *Fox farm nutes
    *Cal mag
    *Seaweed extract

    I know I'm forgetting a few things but you get the gist, few questions obviously:

    should I go with the 1200 watt or can anyone offer a better alternative maybe 4 300 watts lights instead for more flexiblity or two 600 watts or is 1200 overkill?
    Can I start seeds in 7 gallons? I've heard some say they do but others don't.
    Is 8 plants too many for a 4x4 I'm probably going to try scrog this time around.
    Any advice or criticism would be great .
    I'm here to learn I know nothing so I'll take in whatever I can

    Thanks in advance :)

  2. I would say is too many in a 4x4 if they are in 7gal pots. You would have trouble working with/around them. As for the light question I would say 1200w led would be great. If you want to do 8 plants I would suggest smaller pots.

  3. Thank you, I could go with 5 gallon pots I guess, these autos don't grow too big from what I've seen
