How long should I veg these strains?

So basically I just want to know how long I should veg my strains to get them to their full potential in 10 gal pots.
The strains I have going are:
Aliendawg
Blue Cheese
Blue Dream
Chemdawg
Deliverance 2
Durban Poison
707 Headband
Sublime OG
Tahoe
I've grown most of these before but never let them get as large as I know they could be and the ones I haven't grown I have clones of. If it matters I lollypop and stress train once to allow the branches to grow up form an even canopy. If anyone's grown these strains before I would appreciate any advice on them as well

Not quite sure there really is an answer to your question.
The veg time is dependent on how tall you want them to be. And that is usually linked to whether ur inside vs outside.

The only one on your list that i have tried was tahoe and i veg'd mine for about a month and a half (18-24") then put some outside and kept some inside.
The indoor ones got to be about five foot tall and yielded about 200g's each while the outdoor ones were 10-12 feet tall and yielded 400g min each.

Depends on how much room you have in your grow room and the amount of lighting you have. Assuming good size room and a couple 1000W lights, I'd probably look to flip them around 18-24" in height (with topping and LST).

Agree with the previous two posters. Depends on how tall you want to grow and how much you want to yield. Tahoes thrive with stress training, so they're gonna love you :hump: I just grew a small BD this season (8 gallon pot) and it had to be topped and tied, to keep it at 5 feet, or so. They are growing fools :weed:

Good luck :peace:
 
Do an ounce of research and anyone will tell you it depends on how big you want em.
I guess I should rephrase my question, I want to know how big they will get if I let them get as big as they can (in a 10 gallon pot) and how long would I need to veg them for them get them there? And grow space isnt a problem, I have 2 grow rooms with 3 Raptor 6's for flowering, 3 hydrofarm 4 foot 8 bulb T5's and one 2 foot 6 bulb for vegging.

1, Buy the time they get as big as you would want, The plants will out grow your effective range of the T5's for vegging!
Solution,,,,at 24",,,use a 1K MH and continue.

The yield from the Blue cheese will be weak as it is not a big yielder,,,,BUT,,,the quality is wack.
I have an original chemdawg still running from the clone only days.....It seems to simply stop a certain height and fill in sometimes. It can be coaxed to get a bit taller, but when it seems to stop.....flip it! Does like to be topped for added yield.

Blue Dream is a tall bitch and will grow as tall as you'll let her go. If topped, all of her grows tall !!! Tre fuckin mendus yielder. I have gotten 1193 gr from a 12' er (minor interior bud site removal for improved bud size). Flip her at 48" to 56" and stand back. You will need supplemental side lighting to finish it out this tall indoors properly. This was done in a 20 gallon pot
