veging cycle

Does the amount of light a plant gets during veging make a difference compared to the amount of light they get during budding cycle. like if i had a room and always had 5 1000watt lights for vegging and budding and produced 2.5 lbs of bud. and than i had a room with 2 lights during vegging and had 5 lights in a budding room will you still get the 2.5 lbs of bud or will it yield less because of the amount of light during vegging?

vegging is the process by which you get your plants ready to bud. if you think about it, when plants are outside and are in a veg state, they start (in the northern hemisphere) coming out of the ground in late march early april when the daylight is getting longer and longer. the light continues to increase in time and intensity as it moves through the summer into the fall. (if anything there is more light during the veg cycle than the bloom, but that is neither here nor there) as you get closer to fall the plant senses a change in daytime light and flowers so that it can be pollinated and produce offspring in the form of seeds. obviously we don't let them get pollinated, but you see my point.

you need to have a consistent amount of light throughout the grow cycle to optimize your bud output. the light requirements during veg are crucial to get a healthy plant that can move the nutrients up to the buds when that part of the grow comes. so basically, you would not get the same amount of bud because your plants would not have enough light to veg properly and might be weak and stretchy or something.

i guess that all depends on how many plants you have in a room under 2 1000 watt hps lights. if it's five then you're fine. if it's 100 then you need to up your light. hope that helps.

The only thing I can add is Veg until plants are Mature.

Yea veg out plants and then lessin the hours to bud

Yeah that helped alot thank you, well i have 7 1000 watt lights and two 12x12 rooms. and im trying to have a setup that continuosly crops out at least every other month and high yeilds. any setup ideas with the current equipment i have to do so?
