Grow tent too small?

Hello I ordered a grow tent and other accessories and upon double checking just then it appears I've ordered a 90cm/50cm/160cm tent instead of a 100cm/100cm.
Will this smaller size be sufficient for 3 plants under a 250w light.
Thankyou

Damn centimeters... so 3 x 1.5 x 5? More space is always better if you have the room. You can def make it work... shit people grow in gutted speakers.

If you can wait for the bigger tent I'd return smaller. Or keep smaller tent for propagation

Hey dude sorry but send it back. 60x60 is ideal for a 250w, 100x100 a 400w. Worth waiting, at least in the future you could upgrade your lighting if you wanted

I Would upgrade if you have the space I have a 6ftx12ftx8ft tent that I use and I run 2 1000 watts right now i might upgrade to 3 1k lights but yeah you can grow some dank shit in any of it. are you using a controller? timers? I got a 1 ton mini split, subsystems 3xl hoods can 150 filter co2, 70 pint dehumidifier and I use the iPonic600 controller. if you can upgrade you should or are you just trying to have one for your personal?

5 600s is more light than 3 1000s same wattage, bigger footprint, and more light.

I know 5 600 is more, but I just don't want to have 5 hoods and have to buy 5 bulbs i figures a would break down the 1k per 4ft which i think is plant of light for that area I'm getting 2-2.5 LBS per light right now so I'm happy, but if theres any tricks that you might know of o I can get higher yields let me know?

If you are starting from seed I would recommend sprouting a bunch initially. Once it's getting tight, remove your weakest one. Then when it's getting crowded again, remove the weakest one, eventually leaving you with the most vigorous out of a hand full of plants. This also gives you some room for error in the begining, if you screw one up you'll have others on deck. I would do this until you get your best ONE or TWO plants.

If your growing from clones you could honestly flower almost as many as you could fit in the space a la 'sea of green' or SOG style. I wouldn't recommend this for a beginer, just wanted to let you know it all depends on how you grow/what you want to do.

I would highly recommend growing only 1 and utilizing some LST(low stress training). Here is a pic of plant that was tied down when it was about 4-5 inches tall. Instead of a taller plant with one main cola with lateral branches that produce popcorn bud, you get one plant that is easier to manage and each budsite will be almost identical. Every branch you see in the pic will be a top cola. 1 plant bent over LST style is your best bet.

Hello yes I do have more room and a fairly complete kit too, timers ballast bulbs ect
This is my first time and I'm utilizing seed, what I was thinking is planting 6 and most likely ending up with 2 by cutting out the males and weaklings. I have been looking into SOG and I will be going that route I would say. I bought such a small kit to start with to perfect my grow then hopefully move up to say 2x 600w digitals.
Thankyou all for your advice

No problem i just moved and i have to reset up my room it fukn sux my AC went out on me and my lights fried the plants i am away from my room at least 10 hours a day, but this controller i bought will fix that cause i can control if from my iPhone and i went the mini split route cost more money, but losing 20 plants cost me big time.
