Hi everyone
Its my first time grow. I would just like to know if my tent size and light and how much plants can I fit for maximum yield.
I have 4×4 grow tent with Dominator COB 2700w LED .
1).How far it should be from the plant in veg time?2.)how much yield would I get from 4 plants ?3.) would 4 plants fit in there ?
Is the light is good I have no idea if the light is good for grow.I got it from eBay for 450$( Dominator COB 2700w LED)

I have no experience with LEDs but would like to see your grow start to finish with that light. It would be informative to see how this Chinese COB LED compared to the more expensive Cree, Vero, etc.

That sounds like a massive light for that sized grow room, but should make for massive buds. How tall is the tent, cause you are going to want to have 3-5 feet of space between the plants and the light. I would also do a test run and hang the light in there while it is on and see how hot it gets in the tent. Just to make sure.

I would say you could fit 2 plants in their comfortable and so you could grow them to a decent size, you could fit 4 in there they would just be smaller plants.

Tent is 7 feet tall.and light actually doesn't make that much heat .the company manual say at least 2.5 feet far from the plant .and I am going to be using proper ventilation system so heat shouldn't be problem.

That should work out perfectly then. Just keep an eye on them and adjust if you notice any issues. What strain are you growing there?

Nice, I recently ordered some auto flower Jack Herer seeds from Crop Seeds and they just got here yesterday. From what I've heard they are good quality seeds so you should get a female from that. Looking forward to seeing how your plants progress!

You got a good deal on that light (saved about $100), I have looked at them it should be drawing about 550-625 Watts of power and it has 730 nm far red light intergrated. I don't know about the quality but I thinkk they are made by King, for low cost lights they get a pretty high rating. The only thing bad that I have heard is that they don't have as much blue spectrum as a MH for veg but they still have plenty I am sure. Good luck with the grow BTW I have found that CKS are great, I have gotten seeds from them, Herbies, Attitude, and Chu Majek and they seem to be the only ones with 100% germination rate for me.

Yah I found this affordable...
It was going to be 100% germination but I know it was my fault . one I soaked alot in paper towel .and one died in soil coz of to much water other was good .I think I am only going to use CKS they have good reviews .

They have good reviews? Where? Lol. I had good germination rates also, but every one of them had mutations and/or hermied. And that was on two different packages, one feminized and one regular. The breeder I've been using has never done that.

Yeah that's a huge led, week it back atleast 3 ft. I had some 36w leds and had them 18" away from the plants and it was still too much for the seedlings. the started turning purple and had stunted growth. for a 4x4 tent I would highly recommend a scrog grow, you can get 4 plants in there and train them with a screen to give you a beautiful canopy equal distant from that giant led. That combined with proper nutrients, water, ph, temp, and Rh you could get some massive buds and possibly get a pound out of there

I would say to intense for seedlings, cheap CFLs till you get an established root system might be better. But it might work good luck.
