Will a stretched plant with bigger node spacing produce bigger yield than a plant with tite node spacing. I have 5 plants in veg. waiting for the flower room. They have 2 UFO leds & 1 125 w. cfl and are stretching like crazy. They will go in flower rm in a week or so. I was wondering if it will yield more than the ones that have the nodes tie nodes.

Nope, stretching doesnt increase yield.

No. Stretching in veg is bad. Stretching is sign of not enough light or light too far away. How far away is it?

What kind of plant? Sativas have wider node spacing than Indicas, assuming your lighting is good enough to prevent stretching.

No, tight nugs are always better.

Seems like some very basic light reading would have answered this without the need of a whole thread but nonetheless,the answer is no.
