I'm no indoor growing expert but with that space you got your only going to fit the first 4 autos you mentioned. With that super cali haze they say it yields 4-9oz outdoors.

Good luck..

I'm not sure but, I think that he is British and the 1.2 is meters not feet right? So it's like 4' X 4'...right? Are you growing in soil?

I have not grown any of the auto's that you have listed but, I think 4-5 plants would be best in 3-5 gallon pots. That's a big lamp light is not the issue if you can keep it cool, it's just space for the plants to grow 2x2 is what I like per plant and that's 4 plants. The sog and sgrogers will do more. Good luck.

my bad. with autos you should only need 3 gallon pot. have you thought of coco to reduce on infestations?

hi, no never tried coco whats the advantage of it over soil ? would it help with mould issues as ive suffered with that in previous grows.
i was thinking about sog as ive never been down that route before and would love some advise on number of plants and size of pots

if it were me mate because i haven't grown auto's before i'd put 9 3gal buckets in there or even go for 12 and remove the weeker plants as they get overgrown by the others only keeping the largest and most vigorous of them, i imagine only choosing the strongest is 1 of your best bets to improving yeild in your space mate with auto's but like i said i haven't grown them before so can't give any advice based on experience
