3 1ft plants generally, i mean if the 3 foot plant has 10 large top colas then of course it will be better but if you have 3 ft of growth straight up you will have bud at the top and not the bottom, wheras the 1ft plant have bud over most of the 3 ft covered. Im not sure if it would work in this instance, but if you grow say 10 smaller plants and 5 bigger plants in the same area you will get more off the 10 plants than the 5

I would grow 3 1ft plants , cause your odds are better getting a female plant.

ye thats true, youd be a bit pissed if youd been vegging a plant for 8 weeks and it was male, but you wouldnt if you veged 3 plants for 2 weeks (from clone) or grew a lowrider and 1 was male even 2 male and one female is better than nothing

Actually, if 4 plants were grown in perfect conditions one being 3 ft and three being 1 ft then the 3 ft plant would end up giving more yield than the three 1 ft plants. This is because the plant slowly multiplies its yield while its growing in the vegative state. If you grew the 3 ft plant so that the side shoots grew you would more likely have a much higher yield than the three 1 ft plants due to the fact that a big part of the lower part of the plant does not give due to blocked light. I'm just going off theory here I could be completely and a half wrong.
