Would it better better for 2 400 watts or 1 800 watts?

You can veg for as long as you want, so just get them to a nice size. Remember though, they can double in height during flowering so watch out

I veg em till the smallest is 12 inchs tall, i would personally go for 2 400s over 1 800 because you will have a better light coverage. No dark corners in the growroom.
