it will grow approximtely 3x the height when you start flowering.. I just go with how much ever space I have and bloom accordingly.. I usually try to wait as long as possible just for yield sakes..

best of luck...

I think that's the first time I've seen someone say x3 most would say x2 or less. I get right at x2 with my 400w.

If you are worried about poor yeilds try supercropping or pinching them. You can vegetate indefinitely though. I've just started supercropping in my journal and there are tutorials on You Tube. Its a lot less stress than tipping and you get to keep your main growing tip. My plants love it.

I'm a NL guy and mine actually grow almost 5x the height.. I just used that number as an estimate, you're right tho, some dont grow as much as 3x..

yeah WW prolly get 3xish with 400w. ideally veg according to your grow space and you could try to pair up lsting your top foliage and pruning that lower 1/5th of growth at the bottom when you decide to flower so youll get good dense buds. some veg for around 1.5 to 2 months for good sturdy plants with good yeilds but feel free to veg even longer given the space and patience.
