Yes, this is exactly my concern, because the plans I'm looking into would call for cramming as many viable little plants into a small space as possible. The goal is decent yield ASAP, thus allowing for more crops.

btw. is the information I've heard correct, that a grower can expect his plants to grow roughly 2x to 3x bigger from the end of vegging? Of course if that's the case, exactly how big they grow would depend on many variables (lighting, nutrition, genetics, etc.)

The battle plan would seem to be, to be patient and first experiment with a crop that is intentionally much smaller than what you know will be able to fit in the grow space, and see how much bigger the plants grow through flowering. From that, a reasonable prediction can be made for more plants, and the grower would then be able to fill his cabinet for his first "real" grow to maximum (viable) capacity, while growing under the same basic conditions.

So, if the plants were little (I dunno the relative sizes of these things) 5 inch runt, by harvest time he could be anywhere from 10 to 15 inches tall - would that be roughly correct? Btw. I'm essentially talking about indicas and indica-sativa crosses here...I'd imagine pure sativas can grow much more in flowering.

btw. as an aside - what are anyone's thoughts on G-13? I've heard basic good things about this strain's potency, but what kind of stone is it? Is the flavour nice? And how is it to grow - of easy or moderate difficulty, or is it something that no new grower should pick for his first garden?
sharer6969 Reviewed by sharer6969 on . Basic Question Hello, a newb' here. Forgive me if the following question has been asked a million times already. What is the earliest one can reasonably put clones into flower? I ask because I've looked at plans for a SOG garden, and have wondered just how far one could push this before the plants would simply be either too young to produce quality buds or be able to support them (stalk is too weak, etc.)? Or is the latter the only problem - and if so, could it be remedied through using some kind of Rating: 5
