Growing Different Aged Plants?

Can i grow different aged plants in the same tent? I just have a big tent and i was wondering if i can grow a 50 days plant and a 5 days plant for example in that same tent. And can i grow some simple feminised skunk plants along with some autos? First time indoors grower, would appreciate some help.

Your big problem with different aged plants is going to be height difference and the inverse square law.

If you set your light for your oldest - and presumably tallest - plants then it'll be too far from the shorter younger plants.

You can solve this problem by putting the short plants up on buckets, you want an even canopy.

I've never grown autos so I'll leave that to someone else.

Yes you can but you will want to do all autos. This guy has a good perpetual grow setup going but he could definitely fit more plants in there.

Photo period plants require 18 hours light for veg and 12 hours for flower so you cant do different age photos in the same tent but all autos is fine because they like 20 hours light their entire life.
