has to be a fairly uncommen question here, seems everyone wants there plants to finish yesterday but i need time! Got my girls just a few days into flower and my clones all rooting. So i got approx 8 weeks till these bubs are gona go into flower, how can i still keep these gals strong an healthy but under control? The flowering mums are under fairly large 600 setup, i got a twofiddy i veg with but i dnt want to use it coz they actualy will grow fairly large under it. Also i dnt need the extra power cost. Could i use fluoro tubes and weak nutes on them? Whats the min amount of light i could keep them under?

if you veg under a 24hr on schedule make sure you put them back to 18/6, less light will just make them stretchy and gaunt

You really have no idea what you're doing. Clarify if you want plants to live longer or be shorter. Pot can live almost forever if you keep it at 18/6 light. Hence mother plants. So any "8 weeks till they flower" gig is your limitation, not one the plant insists on.

Oh that part is easy. Just say you want them to grow and then follow the majority of advice newbies give you. They will be fucked up and short.

Ok, so. I am talking completely from inexperience, but wouldn't you just keep it on 24 hour lights so they don't stretch, top if you need to keep them shorter, and just continue to let them veg as long as you want until you have enough room to switch it over... Come on now, do you really want to stress the plant out so it stops growing, or just let it veg for a longer time and end up with product that wasn't stressed? Heh, seems like anything would be better than forcing them to stop growing
