How Long Should they Veg from Seed?

[ArrOgNt RocKstAR]

64 DinaFem CaliHashplants started from Seed.

Under 4 X 600 Watt HPS lights.(16 plants per light)

10'X10' Room

How many weeks should these girls veg. They are in 2.5 - 3 gallon containers.

I would like to know if there is a perfect balance of Good Yeild, and Fast Finishing.

Please help me out

It all depends on how big you want to get your plants...Don't know of any sweet spot where yield to veg ratio is the best, but it seems like a lot of people on here (including me) veg for around 4-5 weeks, but I'm sure you will get a lot of different answers.

It really depends on the style of grow. The only restrictions for Short veg times would be rooting. I would always make sure my plants have fully rooted in the pots they will be flowering in before switching to 12/12.

The longer you veg, the bigger the plants will be, and potentially the more bud they can support, but eventually you will need to add more lighting, etc. I would veg to at around 12-18 inches at least then flower. (2-4 weeks veg)

Wait till they preflower in VEG then switch over to flower basically the plants telling you its ready if your worried about space just tie em down.

Yeah did I say you had to? Just giving him some tips wasn't talking to you.

you can actually 12/12 from seed. this way the plants flower when they feel there ready adn you can chop whenever you feel their ready for the scissors.

if you post it in a forum just expect something like that. your always talking to everyone. theres no need to loose our tempers over something like that.

You said to tie plants down waiting preflowers, sorry bro, didn't want some new guy to get the wrong idea thinking you need to see preflowers.

Cool, I was thinking veg for 4 weeks.
I hope they yeild at least 1 ounce + each plant.
I plan on topping them at the 2nd true node. Hopfully I can squeeze some nice weight outa them.
