Can you grow 6 plants in a square foot? if one was to flower at around 12" or is this just ripping the ass out of it completly?

Bit more info on this....it's in a bubbleponic system there's 18 pot holes in a space of around 2 and a half foot long with one and a half wide, giving you 3 sets of 1 foot square in a row? does this make sense?

U should only grow one plant per square foot and possibly less, your going to have an overcrowding issue, and light penetration will be close to zero. I would keep what u have now, and when u start to flower, u will cut out males any way, and then u can have ur pick of the best ladies, grow 1 plant per square foot, this way u wont run into problems later. having that many plants wont be an issue until they get big, so dont worry just yet.
