2 or 3 plants under 250w scrog?

[celeblas]

Hey guys,

i growed 2 autos with cfls last year and wanna upgrade to hps this year.
My setup is:

2x2x5 grow tent
250w hps/mh
2x2 scrog screen
GO nutrients (Biogrow, biobloom, bioroot, biobud)
14 liter pots (3,7 gal)

I am gonna grow Nirvana Northern Light due to not having carbon filter. I wonder if i should grow 2 or 3 plants with this setup. If it is possible to fill the screen with 2 plants i will go for it. But will the yield be the same for 2 or 3 plants?

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

It depends on how big the plants are of course, but 2-4 plants should be about right for that setup. DutchDragon is running 4 under a 250 right now in a 2x2 scrog if you want to check it out.

Speak of the devil.
I have been running this setup for over a year now. 2x2x5ft cab and a 250hps with cfl's. I have followed quite a few scrog journals with similar setups ranging from 1 to 4 plants.
I personally do 4 plants for a fast turn around, but if your very patient you can achieve the same yield with a single plant vegged for a couple of months. I grow organically and perpetually and only from feminized seeds as I find the cost to be well worth the end product. The energy needed for the extra grow time far outweighs the couple of bucks extra for some decent seeds.
My grow journals can all be found in my signature underneath if you want to check them out.
