I've got 15 i vaged till about 18"s then to flower. But they are tightly packed into a 5x5 area, I think 12 would be ideal

I guess your not the famous BongHolio from PG...
Anyhow, it all depends on the strain and method of growing.
I'd put a minimum of 16 plants under that much light in a normal setup, aiming to get a final height of 1m.
I myself, in my available space would go SOG and grow around 50 plants under the 1000w aiming for a final size of around 40-50cm.

PG was planetganja. doesn't seem to be alive anymore.

SOG will still give you bigger yields, no meter what the space it - just means more work taking care of more plants.

the idea behind SOG is have more main colas rather than letting side branches grow, resulting in... more yield.
there are plants that react well in sog, some doesn't.

I grow pretty much SOG right now, you can check my journal.


However, it is more work.
