I've just harvested plants that were planted straight into flower as clones and ended up waist tall bushes with arm length colas, wedding cake parentage, as well as plants halfway into flower that are like 5foot tall stacked with tight nodes almost single cola plants. Different genetics. We veg at a max 2 weeks here commercial cropping and I hardly ever see that side by side node unless as said common from seed. Veg time I do not think has any bearing on that. I'll take a pic of them for the thread just now as they are pretty frosty..Short veg time means not enough time to develop ready to flower. That's why the nodes stayed side by side!
This plant only got 3 weeks veg and was the same.
Above, plants on right had 10-14 day veg, plants on the left were planted straight into flower! Plants on right are 6-7 weeks in and plants on left are 3-4 weeks into flower. The clones straight into flower would have been planted into a situation with watering steering to tell to produce biomass, where as the plants with a veg would have vegged under a more generative steering and biomass steering once moved across into this area to flower. Plants below got transplanted from clone into flower and are 5 foot tall with normal alternating nodes. Plants though are free from any viral diseases so have incredible vigor and uniformity.
