sativas sometimes yeild well with no veg time so it depends on strain
Gotcha.
I had not finished building my flower lights, so I did an almost 3 month veg. I think by the time they are fully flowered, the plants will be too big for the room that they are in. They already seem too big for the room and I just put them in there.
This is my first grow, so I was trying to figure out if I could veg them next time for half the time and get half the yield. Sounds like there is no formula for this.

As far as indoors goes....a good rule of thumb is to flip the lights when your plants are half the desired size. Some strains double in height. But if you prune and train the plants well they will stay short and bushy and then with a longer veg you will produce more. Of course....there are a lot of variables involved.

It depends on a lot of things besides genetics too. For instance say you keep two plants real healthy for 2 months and put one in flower. Then the other starts to become unhealthy by month 3.5and worse by month 4 then you flower it, the less vegged plant would yield more I'd expect.
Generally I veg for 3-4 weeks then flower small plants in perpetual cycles. I notice with the strains I keep around all the time I yield 15-25% more with an extra three week veg. I'm sure some people see more of increase as my space isn't perfect and my methods are far from perfect but that's what I see from longer veg.

You could trim it back and take some cuttings

Yea I think indoors is the opposite, diminishing returns. You can really only fill the canopy so much I think before the plant starts needing more than your light can give it. My experiences with over-vegging have been pretty negative so far lol, I avoid it now...

Key is.....if you are in a sm container a longer veg would be bad. Once rootbound the yield will suffer.

Be careful that stretch can easily be triple instead of double if ur veging long training is a must believe me I'm struggling right now from lack of training on a 8 week veg

Sativa's will stretch the most I have a 5 foot super silver haze right now I'm unhappy about
