It might be an idea to let the plants veg properly under 18/6 for two weeks first before switching to 12/12 (unless your a micro grower and want tiny plants) so they grow as quickly as they can while they're only vegging anyway??

Peace

e2a - dam lovin that pic
yea i think u r right hudson, but the way i started my grow i was givin 3, 3 foot plants still in veg and started to flower them so i quickly planted 4 mandala seeds and they only got like a week to veg and then i had to flower the giants or they would out grow my grow room very quickly, anyway heres the thread if you want to check out my log!
