Hi All
has anyone had any experience with this set up .iam starting from seed and have run a couple of grows .basically iam confused on veg time I was always led to believe that the longer you veg the more you will yield .so I start with germinating I place seedlings in a x stream heated propogaror until roots come through my medium.i then place my rooted plants in the amazon 4 hole .NOW MY CONFUSION IS HOW LONG SHOULD THE VEG .my friend had the same set up and vegged for about a week and flipped them .they grew huge with a good yield.i tried vegging for about 4 weeks under 600 w hood they vegged about 2or 3 ft tall I flipped them and the results was no where near as good . we both no wat we are doing and have the same gear same seeds ect .I just wonder how he got bigger plants and flowers than mine with only a week or two of veg.

If your running an aerotable you only need 1-2 weeks of veg depending on the strain.
May i ask what the problem you had was?

hi thanx for ur reply.so basically I think your telling me the same as my friend .he advise me yiou do not even need to cover the the whole table space to get optimum results .it just seems strange coming from soil that this happens..so even with 4 plants under a 600w light you should only be getting them to about 8 or 10 inch before flower.i just didn't have no faith . we used vanilla kush and he flipped around 4 inch with 8 plants under a 600 w and his plants grew outstanding with huge flower production.i took it upon myself to veg 4 plants toabout 2ft tall and although it was ok I think io over vegged and I lost a lot of lower bud production .is there such a thing of over veg .the strange thing is his smalle plants grew thicker and bigger than my longer vegged plants.same nutes same seeds which . only had the table for a short period .guessing iam still caught up with the 8endless weeks of vegg.would you advise that 4 seeds only need a couple of weeks under 600watt mh once they have rooted .

If your in an aerotable, yes. Only 1 week of veg with most strains. I run 9 plants under a 1000 watt using house and garden nutes. 1 week veg and just follow the feed schedule. I have not personally finished an aero grow yet. They will not seem to grow much while in veg, but once theyre into the second week of flower theyll grow about 2-3 inches a day. The growth will be very noticeable. Can i ask what you and your friend yielded dry?

is that 1 week of veg wen root formed from seedling and they have strted to develop new growth. That would gice me about 4 plants at 6 to 8 inc tall.is that enough wen iam only running 4 plants or does this not matter as they will grow in flower stage to fill space before fully flowering .my mate run 8 lik ethis and he dried around 20 ounces per 600watt.i vegged for longer and only dried 12 ounces.i just don't want to under veg them but it all seems to point to this short veg time.
