you just taught me something...if you only have one growing space and you use it for veg and flower then vegging is a waste of time. the extra yield that can be achieved by having taller plants and making use of the vertical space you have is lost in terms of overall yield per year, i also think the quality of the finished bud is more consistent on small plants.
that being said i choose to grow large plants and have less harvests per year as a result because that particular way suits my lifestyle and growing isn't my job. if i had more time i would do a lot more plants, utilise every square ft of floor space with growing medium, square pots touching or one big bed.
you can get 5 harvests easily with most 8 week strains, vegging in the flower room means it is a very tough job to get even 4 harvests in a year and if you are only using the same wattage as an sog, the plants will stretch more which leaves the bottom half of the plant with fluffy buds that take longer to ripen.a positive is you can get amazing yields per plant but only doing 3 harvests a year leaves me going a long time without weed
With no veg area are you suggesting SOG from seed with little to no veg time, or can you plan to grow from clones, perhaps using refrigeration/stasis to 'store' your clones through the flowering phase?if you only have one growing space and you use it for veg and flower then vegging is a waste of time. the extra yield that can be achieved by having taller plants and maki

well if you want more yeild with less plants I would lst or even hst a srcog not a sog. With a sog you have several plants in one location right up against one an other to fill up your "sea of green". With a scrog you can have one plant that takes up anywhere from 1m sq. Witch is 3 feet by 3feet so 9 sqaure feet and it can have up to around 15 to 20 tops or colas. That is what I would do. Research the difference between lst and hst and see what you want to do
next time try a sgrog you trim off all the leaves and immature little popcorn buds so that all the energy goes to bud froth. But only remove the fan leaves and buds from under the screenif you only have one growing space and you use it for veg and flower then vegging is a waste of time. the extra yield that can be achieved by having taller plants and making use of the vertical space you have is lost in terms of overall yield per year, i also think the quality of the finished bud is more consistent on small plants.
