What is faster, 1 plant scrog or clone 4 plants than scrog?

I am debating if i should scrog one plant or make it a mother than scrog multiple plants. The clone is 1.5 weeks old with like 4 clones i can cut. I think 1 plant in a 3x3 spot will take months and months to fill that area. So i am asking for opinions on wat will get me to harvest faster with a great yield. The strain is pure power plant. What do you guys think? I dont wanna vegg half a year, it would not be cost effective in my opinion.

well.. obviously not having to clone the plants would be faster.. but which would be wiser? i would take the four clones and use them for the scrog.. that would work really nice as they would all be the same height and whatnot.. it may take you two or so weeks longer to get the clones to root, and maybe give them a week of veg and than you could do your scrog right after that..

So i should just vegg the 1 plant? If so im going to use 10 gallon pots what do you think would be estimated time of vegg for 3x3 area?

you can veg for as long as you'd like.. being that your gonna scrog it anyways, and height isn't really an issue for you, i'd wait till you see either preflowers or alternating nodes.. this can take anywhere from say five or six weeks, depending on the strain of course.. but i'm talking five or six weeks from seeds, so maybe a lil less for your clone..
just remember that the bigger the plant and root zone is before flowering, the bigger the yield should be given that everything else is where it should be.. and with that nice big ten gallon pot, that sucker should get nice and big...
some people even like to only give the clones say a week or so of veg and then put them into flower.. it all depends like i said on how much you would like to yield... being your only gonna grow the one plant, i would veg that crap out of that sucker..

take the clones. keep the mother. flower clones. take more clones later from mom. you'll be in veg for 6 weeks tryin to fill that in with one monster. and you'd have to top it & train it to get it to bush out like ya want. way too long to be efficient. Solo mi dos centavos...
 
agree with grumpy and others. right before you flip to flowering clean up the bottoms and use those cuts as clones for the next round that you'll be vegging while flowering the first: )

If you're doing a small scrog then clone the next generation 2-3 weeks into flower. Believe me you will not be disappointed.
