question: how long time schould they veg for before I put em in to flowering ?

I know it depends on what size and yield you want ..

but as I only have 2 plants and 6 T5ho tubes for veg and a 600W HPS for flowering and fairly big pots ..

I want to get the most out of them without waiting for next year to flowering them ..

what would "you" recommend/you do your self ?

2 months ago I was wondering the same thing.

I have 2 vegged for 2 months, 74 days from seed and 4 rooted clones 1 month old. All have been in 12/12 for 3 days now.

I wanted to see what the diff between 2 month veg and 1 month clones in flower will be.

ahh ok ..

so all between 2 month and 6 weeks ..

guess Im on week 5 now so like 1-5 week more ..

hmmm .. as they have been FIM/LST I would like to give em a littel extra veg..
also since they are in a 26L pot (have one more for the one in the 12L pot)

so I guess maybe like 3-4 weeks more so they get a total of +8 weeks or so .. or maybe if they are big in size and preflowering around week 7

lets see ..

but nice to know they double in size (is that mostly in hight ?)

yea exatly ..

the FIM did "cost" atlest 3-4 days before if was growing nicely agin and another 2-3 days before the top 4 shoots begon to grow agin ..

so I guess if 6 weeks is the norm .. they schould atlest get 7 and maybe even 8 as I do have space for them 2 plants and 7 gallon pots ..


Im now in the start of week 6 and have it under controle and plants is growing realy fast so I guess in like 2 weeks I will begin to consider it .. dependin on size and if they begon to preeflower .. if so I will switch ..

thanks for all the comments ..

they say you should veg until you see preflowers and at that time you will achieve best yield.. I haven't done it but I'm gonna try this out, if you have space it always better to wait 2 months

Pretty plant, looks so much like my little Super Bud! I usually just veg for 4 weeks, but I move them outdoors at that point.
