I have a single grow box which works very well for both vegetative and flowering stages. Just working on trying to increase how much I can harvest per year, I'm wondering how early I can start the next plant before the old plant is harvested freeing up the grow box.

I would probably have the plant on near 24 hour light of 3000~ lumens from a 6800K CFL bulb. It would be outside of any sort of special grow environment but given that my last plant looked like this at 3 weeks, seems like that plant could be in a less finely controlled environment as long as it's sitting in fresh air and temperature is not a problem.

I'm using the logic that having perfect lighting with reflective walls in some fancy grow chamber is not as vital for a plants success when it is really just transitioning from a seedling to the vegetative stage. Certainly I would give it more than enough light (which will be easy as small plants don't require as much anyway) but as long as I got it into a special grow chamber by the third to fourth week of life my yields will not be negatively affected, correct?

Lots of assumptions in this topic so feel free to call me out and make suggestions.
