You are asking a wrong question. Eventually both methods will result in a planet pumping the same resources. Here are questions that you can ask instead:

Which method gets me to the max output faster?
Which method generates more resources on the way there?
Which method results in more resources N turns from now?

Note that the answers to these questions can be different. There are sever factors contributing to the final decision:

Your growth rate
Planet value (before and after terraforming) and your hab ranges
Cost of terraforming
Cost of factories
Effectiveness of factories and population
Availability of germanium
Strategic positioning of the planet - do i need to have as much pop there as soon as possible or can it wait?

I don't think there is an ultimate answer. You need to experiment with various options and see what works for you.
