One node and flip.
Ive always been a supporter of plantlet style methods!!! As i always say "there aint no money in vegging plants".
I understand how lst, scroggery, and all that can be beneficial to guys who want big operations but also wanna stay within a certain plant count for legal reasons in Michigan for example where the absolute max is 72. Well, thats not very many so if u wanna have a big garden and stay legal the answer is big plants. Otherwise, all that vegging, topping and bending is a waste of valuable resources. U cud be using all that square footage, electric, fertilizer, time, and effort for growing buds and isnt that the real goal? Haha Not to mention the longer something lives the more likely it is to die or more likely have something go wrong w it....also another reason why i like to vet em in and get em out.
Another way to look at it is like this.....if i can get by w a small veg rm and a short veg time and get x amount per plant, watt or sqft and another guy gets the same yield but has much more resources devoted to it then whos actually yielding better results?
I see guys on here all the time like " yeah i get 3lbs per light" but if it took ya 8wks to veg its really not impressive....
