70l / ~18,5 gal container - 4 or 5 plants - LED - first time - HELP!

Hello,

First time in soil for main crop.

Planning to put 4-5 plants in a 70 litre / 18,5 gallon container (about 70x50cm / 27,5 x 20 inch width x depth, some 40cm high), which I will fill with a premade soil mix, and do the fertilizing with an premade organic liquid fertilizer after a few weeks have gone by.

210 watts of LED's do the lighting.

Thinking that I am putting in two purple pheno Killing Fields's moms, one purple Cannatonic mom, A-Train cut just rooted a week ago, one mystery sativa mom (I have ran this "mystery" for over 3 years now so not really a mystery to me anymore..)

1-3 week vegetative period, some of the plants just rooted and planted cuts and some months old mothers in small 1 L / 1 quart containers.

Is there anything wrong with my plan, especially using a big container for small amount of plants, is it a waste?:thank you:

While I am not a fan of multiple plants in containers, many do it with success and I think that your ratio is good. What are the dimensions of the container?
Your lighting should be good depending on the total setup. You will be able to get the LEDs close to the plants without burning them.
Give your plants at least 3 weeks veg, I find 4 to work best for me in my micro set up.
Good luck
