Fall, Winter and Spring Grow- Suggestions Please

Ok So I was going to grow in a 4x4 tent this season with a 1000w but I was just giving a 4x8x6.5 tent by a buddy that just upgraded to a 10x10. I plan to still do the grow in the shed but now with two Air Cool 1000w Hps and veg in the 4x4 under a 600w mh. I will have a plug in thermostat to kick on and off a heater to keep temps right when lights are off. I want to harvest about 3lbs each harvest. I plan to do 5 gallon buckets with clones. Strains I have right now in veg is Green Crack, Blue Widow, Grand Daddy Purple, Lost Coast OG x GDP Cross, Green Crack x GDP Cross, Kosher Kush x GDP Cross, Plush Berry, Purple Mayhem, Gods Gift, and Gigabud. I will veg clones for about 2 weeks then put into flower. My question is would it be smart to put one of each plant in flower every 4 weeks so I can harvest every month or just fill tent up once and flower then start over with clones once all plants are harvest? I have 10 Strains that will be going in to flower.

It can be easier to control pests if you bring them down all at once. It depends how you want to harvest it. If the strains all ripen at the same time it could be a lot to harvest all at once.

I think I might just go with that. If I cut all down around same time I will just fill completely and flower then harvest everything by week 12. Then repeat process with clones taking from the ladies right at flip. Would it be smart to pack the tent with 5 gallon or 3 gallon grow bags? I can't make up my mind so many choices.

I would go with the 3 gallon if you are going to sea of green them.

This is the thing. Where I'm doing it at is a spare home I have not rented out yet so I plan to grow in that shed. No neighbors so I'm good on that part. I won't be checking on them but every 5-7 days. Do you think I can get by without watering them for 5-7 days in 3 Gallon in late flower? I know 5 gallons will make it no problem because I have some 5 gal buckets going outdoors in Full beam sun all day now with 4 feet ladies in them in mid flower and they don't dry out completely till about day 8.

Yeah, go with the 5 gal if you can only water every 5-7 days. You might want to go some sort of hydro setup if that's the case, indoors stuff can get drier.

I wouldn't push past 4 days in 5 gal's in late flower, based on my experiences.
