heres a couple pics of my last go round, had 2 plants under the 400w and i was pleased w/ the outcome

the first two are from the same plant about 1 month apart, it was a sweet skunk mix

the last pic is some kind of maple/widow/grape hybrid.

i get these strains from an old school dude around town thats been crossing his dank for years so there is no real telling what it is... its all bomb tho

take a picture from futher away so we can see what we are looking at. Thats a really nice light tho man. u should save that carbon filter for flowering tho, you dont really need to run it now, save the carbon and get more air flow, unless it is damping the noise, but cool man take more pics

What is the minimum amount of time you can Veg for?

It depends on your strain and heal/vigor of the plants. Alternating nodes is a good generic rule. Otherwise if preflowers are showing. Or if the plant is over a foot tall. But time isnt always relevant, more so as soon as the plant is ready. I have had monster 16" clones in under 4 weeks that were ready to go, but I've seen other people with seedlings that were in poor mediums with inexpierienced care and were only 4"-6" tall at 2 months and clearly not ready for flower. So just do the best you can, and post a pic when you want to flower and we can give you a good Idea if they are redy or not.

You can do 12/12 the entire time. Some people actually sprout 12/12 or take clones in 12/12 or more commonly take clones that were on 18/6 and put them straight to 12/12 with no vegging time. All of this works. The only difference is the results. You can grow bud under a light bulb with only 8 hours of light or with 24. MJ is a fun plant like that.

As a general rule all that malarky now being said:

2 weeks of vegging and 7 weeks of flowering. But of course every strain is differen't if you want optimal results. . . For instance most OG growers tend to veg 4 weeks and flower 10. . . bubba kush is more of a 2 week veg 6 week flower. . .so it differs.

What are you growing?

Nice one, :bigjoint:
I want some decent smoke so i definatly wanna veg for at least 3 weeks, i vegged my last grow for atleast 8+ weeks (i lost track of time:lol:) before switching to 12/12.
They are big bang seeds, also just potted 2 random seeds and a lemon skunk seed or what i think was a lemon skunk seed....:bigjoint:
time is not of the essence right now....:wall:

thanks for the tips.

:peace:
