Welcome good to see you!
I use this strategy with my 64 square foot flower area. There are basically 4 lights in my room with 4'x4' area under each light. I harvest from under a light every two weeks an area. In that two weeks I chop the early ones that are ready, and get the other ones as the two week window goes on. I am using two Cannatrol units and time most of my activities based on that schedule for dry and cure (8 days currently). Sometimes I have SOG in the 4x4 and other times I may have 2 or 4 plants under the light. Either way that area gets chopped and replanted to keep the cycle going. This yields me roughly 60-70 pounds per year perpetually. My veg/clone/seedling room is 18 square feet and is enough room to feed this flower room. I stay on top of chop, dry, cure, trim, and then store for longer cure.Personally I organise my cycles by 10 weeks because I like to have several types of high, in my plants I have some 7/8 weekers, 9, 10/11 weekers. If use 2 different strategies to have my room filled to the max all the time, I replace each harvested plant by a new one from veg or I wait to harvest all the plants and give a bit more veg time under my bigger light. It depends on the plants growth in veg but my goal is to use each square centimer of my grow area to the max as I grow in an illegal country and have a very small scale grow.
In a year I do 5 harvests of 400/500g, for the space used (0,6 m2 veg/ 1,4m2 flo) I'm pretty happy with my annual yield but I hope to increase to 600g by harvest, I know it's possible with the good environment and more important the good plants because today there is a lot of cross who produce high quality buds with under average yield.
Also doing something similar, could i ask what size the plant going from veg to flower is? And after how much time in seedling+vegg?I use this strategy with my 64 square foot flower area.

Everything in my process does two weeks in seedling stage, eight weeks in veg, and then 8-10 weeks flower. The plants are usually around 24-30" high, give or take a few inches. Every so often I will put some 12 inch plants in the flower room. It just depends on the strain and available spots. Sometimes I put plants in the flower room after only 4 weeks veg, but mostly I stick to my process. I currently have 64 plants in flower and 42 in my veg room. I am about to move 16 from veg to flower tomorrow and cut two mature plants.Also doing something similar, could i ask what size the plant going from veg to flower is?

Just trying to figure something out for my self and our vegg space efficiency.
Nice, thx for the dets . We do slightly larger plants, with a bigger vegg but we go very slow with the vegg.Everything in my process does two weeks in seedling stage, eight weeks in veg, and then 8-10 weeks flower.

The rotation in my setup is smooth but intense. It is all about planning and logistics. The pot sizes are what make the system work. I use 3" pots for seeds and cuttings and around week 4 transplant into 5" pots. The reason this is critical is that 18 plants in 3" pots fit in a 1020 tray. Once transplanted they are now in 5" pots and 8 pots per 1020 tray. My rack system is each section is a 2'x3' shelf and holds three 1020 trays each. As soon as I transplant from the 3" pots I either plop more seeds or take more cuttings for the 36 spot CloneKing. Using a spread sheet with conditional date formatting is also key for me. Once the plants come out of the veg area I transplant the 5" pots into 3 gal pots which fit 8 pots on the same 2'x3' rack. Every two weeks I replant two of the 2'x3' shelf racks. It doesn't matter if there are one or two plants on the shelf and seven feet tall or if there are four or eight plants on that shelf and SOG. Two shelves get cut every 16 days or so. It's a very well tuned ballet that includes the availability of the two Cannatrol systems as well.Nice, thx for the dets . We do slightly larger plants, with a bigger vegg but we go very slow with the vegg.
The more i think about it the more mad it seems; 16 plants in, for this start; with another in 2 weeks and then again in 2 weeks. Cant even see how that work space works, but all power to you. About 3 plants per square foot in veg right now, unless you stretch it out by having 2 separate vertical tiers.
Looks like a great choiceView attachment 19051138

Also of equal importance is the manufacturing quality which is usually echoed thru the warranty
- LED Diode Type
Sanan 3V 3030+Sanan 3535 660nm
My personal choice would be to look for a 5 year warranty
If you have the voltage and amperage for commercial LED that would open up a wide array of products
a top pick in my mind would be the above 5 YR warranty with a top of the line LED
Another consideration is your country of manufacture which will affect your warranty options

Some points to consider
Hope its helpful
Also make sure the expense fits your specific need
I have not found a replacement myself for my current LED, still shopping
Best >>> let me know if you think of anything else, always a pleasure seeing you @bigherb
Usa - NYCFor sure brother
ams-osram horticulture as a standout in my mind and likely will revisit that site before making a decision
Hopefully some others critique my response several on this thread are meticulous is the tech study
Driver warranty/quality meanwell is hard to beat pair that with a top line LED for electric to photon efficiency
Then you just need a manufacturer who assembles a quality product and stands behind it.
Will take a little while tonight and think about what your looking for is it 120- 277 V ? USA or EU ?
in NYC around my way we say if it anint church it anint fire
more incense and less nonsense
