I don't understand long veg times.

I feel alone in vegging longer to chuck my males.. Am i the only one growing regs?
Nope. I grow regs here and there too. I have little areas setup for diff stuff. Clone area, seedling/rooting clones area, 'pre veg tent', mom tent. Before they even get anywhere close to production, they're waiting in line to get into the next area. By the time they're passing the seedling/rooting clones area into the pre veg tent they're showing or close to. Then only fems will be moved into the mom tent and put in line to clone and flower said clones. I rarely ever flower a plant from seed.

Sometimes it seems I pick all the males first somehow. Then every seed left is fem. Lol. I've gone to starting 2 of every reg strain just in case, and generally end up with 2 fems. Lmao. Mother nature is a cruel biatch sometimes
She can be fickle, no doubt ;) Have one strain this season that is reg seed, so was going to pop 3 and hope for at least one hit. Two seems like with my luck I’d get two doods. Figure three is a safe hedge?

I used to grow big plants outdoors. They veg quite a while and outdoor yields can be 20lbs per 20ft plant.

I now grow old school "Sativa" indoors, the loose growth allows more light to penetrate. So everything is 7ft and the canopy nearly reaches the soil. No larf because they are fed properly and we don't dim lights to bandaid nutrient issues.

Anyone growing a flat canopy is wasting time with veg. The concept of a flat canopy is outdated. If your canopy is shorter than the shaved legs under it, you've wasted time. More surface area exposed is the goal. 2D is the smallest surface area in a 3D space.
You need to walk before you can run grasshopper. You're not an expert after reading some articles and only have a couple of cycles down your belt.
