Well it doesn't seem as if you're hurting for space at the moment, so you have time review your options. I prefer to top once, and trim the bottom 25-30%. However, with that much light you easily stage your harvest to allow the undergrowth to fully mature. I never had time for all that shit so I can't really elaborate.

I would SoG perpetually. A 2 week grow stagger between 4 sets of flowering plants. Bud every two weeks instead of of the usual 70-90 days.

And if you decide to do that, I would greatly increase the number of plants in there. It can be a bit tedious but well worth it if you pay attention. Do you have a dedicated mother/clone/veg area?

I have a 1 1/2' x 1 1/2' x 7' closet i use but i can only fit one dwc bucket in there at a time(currently has 2 clones in it). I have cfl bulbs in it but cooling it is a bitch on the upper level of it where i just put one of my rooted clones..

You need more clone/mom space if you want to go perpetual. More importantly, what are you trying to achieve with this grow?

well i have about enough dwc buckets fill the tent and im pretty happy with the results from them as well as how easy it is to keep clean.. does anyone know how many lb i could get out of the tent potentially?

When I flower clones directly after rooting I average about 1oz per. But that's with no veg time at all. Have you chose a method yet, or are you just gonna stick with the one batch at a time deal?

thats what i havent decided yet. i was thinking about letting this round finnish then veging the next plants for 2months then flowering..
If its going to be a perpetual grow i need it to harvest at least a lb maybe a few oz more...
