I veged for 10 days this time, which was a mistake. No veg is the way to go. Straight clone to flower.
You should never go straight to flower. Veg for at least a week. It'll give your plants a chance to grow up a little and establish a healthy root system. What you need is more vertical space. You don't want your plants to be so close to your lights

i develop healthy root systems in my clones before they go into the tent. they will be fine going right into flower as al. b fuct has been doing for years. yes your right more vertical space would be great, unfortunatly it is not possible at this time.

That root mass is still really tiny though. Secondly, you're not going to have a lot of nodes to flower from. I've done a 16 plant per light SOG before in an ebb and flow w/hydroton system and it doesn't yield nearly as much as when you flower for a week or more. Throwing your plants straight into flower isn't going to get you a pound per light and if you're not getting at least a pound per light then you're doing something wrong.

after seeing how thick the stalks are after 10 days i agree with shorting up the veg cycle. maybe down to 3-5 days than compare the yields? if the yield is still the same i say why not attempt the 0 day. the nutrients your using seem like steroids for these plants.

in the harvest every 2 week thread jdro is taking about. he focuses on growing the main colas and trimming back the undergrowth.

when you say a lb/light are you referring to a 1k hps? because he does only have a 600.
