Ashy Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Morning everyone! Been knocking around here for a month or so now, doing my own research as they say, but I got a cracking price on a DS60 which means I'm committed now, so thought I'd better sign up! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yan Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Welcome! I have the same tent as you, still going strong after 10+ years. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashy Posted December 20, 2023 Author Share Posted December 20, 2023 Seen some properly top notch stuff happen in those tents on here, and as I'll only be growing for me, figured it'd be perfect! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashy Posted December 20, 2023 Author Share Posted December 20, 2023 (edited) The one that took up a LOT of my time was "How many plants in what size pots in what size tent?". That's a hole you could lose yourself in for MONTHS! Edited December 20, 2023 by Ashy 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stu914 Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Welcome bud, word of advice...get your environment right first... Once that's dialled in everything else is pretty simple... BTW how many plants/pots also depends on strain/s being grown...just to add to the confusion... Good Luck 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashy Posted December 20, 2023 Author Share Posted December 20, 2023 Oh yeah, there's nothing simple about this, is there? I suppose if it was easy everybody would be doing it Next on my list is a light, then the CF & fan... then I'll see how skint I am and take it from there! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geogeo Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 hi mate , welcome to the grow , mr grade,, will keep you right think 3 pots , 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Military Grade Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 (edited) Two plants vegged for 4 weeks can fill out a scrog net in a 60x60 quite nicely. These were about 5 to 7.5L pots. You could do 4 plants and cut a bit more time off the vegging time, but it can make things a bit more complicated, like trying to Water the plants at the back, juggling 4 different feeding requirements, defoliation and so on. Sometimes it's best to keep it simple for the first few runs. My current grow is just a single plant in the 60x60, I thought I'd give the Pineapple Express #2 and full tent to herself, this also allowed me to veg her for longer to take decent cuts.

Ashy Posted December 20, 2023 Author Share Posted December 20, 2023 That's the exact grow I was thinking of. Perfect for my needs and a really useful reference for a total noob! May or may not have just ordered an XS1500 Pro, too... Was looking at the P1000, but just thought I might as well do it properly from the start even if it takes me a bit longer to get it all set up 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satchitananda Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Well you have the best led for the tent anyway ( XS1500 Pro ). I have a 60x60 and am using a 250w HPS, I have grown from one to four plants in there and am currently growing two, I had to top and train them to fit but scrogging is best for this size tent. @Military Grade's grow shows you how it can be done. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashy Posted December 20, 2023 Author Share Posted December 20, 2023 Yeah, I figured I'm going to have to scrog, but the Rev 4 DS60 comes with a net, so I'm good to go there. Still not entirely up to speed with topping, that seems like a dark art(!), but I think I've got my head around training. Looking forward to my journey 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
