No man... The light in the room is on 24/7... Let me put things into perspective... For example:
I have 2 big plants, I can only fit 1 plant in the room... BUT I want to flower 2 plants without having to get another room set up for flowering.
therefore I keep the light on 24 hours a day. I have one plant going in the light at 7am then at 7pm I switch that plant with the other plant in the dark room. Theoretically I'd double the yield by switching my plants

why? fuck lets say I can only fit 6 plants that produce a pound. If I have 2 batch under that same light. I could flower 12 plants =2 pounds

I think you're the one that is smoking too much for not being competent enough to comprehend the genius idea I just had

If you have room for only one plant in the flower room and you do as you say, in theory you should double your production. 2 plants in rotation great idea...12 plants in rotation seems like a lot of work. lol genius lol... how many plants are in the veg room?

Youll just have to make sure theyre sturdy or self supported on their bucket or something.
My only concern would be damaging them moving them around that much.

go the whole hog. Build a railroad track system between the two tents/rooms. Fit the pots to flat wagons and set the whole thing on a timer so the pots transfer themselves between locations! 
..or, do the same thing with the light

d go the route of getting a tent big enough for both plants. However if you can keep up with the ole swaparoo then go for it.
Not really doubling the yield. You're still doubling everything besides a light fixture and adding the pain in the ass of having to rotate plants every 12 hours.

so, according to you, rotating 12 plants (6 per tent) every 12 hours, and that is EVERY 12 hours, is somehow easier than just investing a few hundred dollars into another setup?
we must have different concepts of easy.

I think a more realistic way of doing it is to indeed have an extra tent, but set up a relay that chops power from the ballast from one tent to the other every 12 hours.
That way you don't need to buy an extra ballast. You still need to put the plants in 12 darkness somewhere, they don't disappear because the lights are off.
