If growing 12/12 from seed

[Forwhat420]

Hey smoke also what kind of strain is that also? It seems that more sativa dominant strains do better under straight 12/12.

That one was started June 12.It has about A week maybe 2 left.I like A strong head buzz,so Im letting her go longer.All I have access to is bag seed.This plant had really thin leaves.And its only about 12 inches tall.To get half white and half amber hairs it took 3 months,almost to the day.

Im no expert or anything.But I was getting about 5 grams per palnt under 12/12.175 watt hps and 4 6500k cfl bulbs.This time I went with 13/11.What I got was A stick with A giant bud on the end of it....lol.Its not done yet,but I just do this for my own enjoyment,and it does ease A bad back. Also Im only growing in A 2 feet high by 3 feet wide area.

this is exactly what im talking about, certain strains tend to just flower and make a bonsai plant from what I gather, and others will grow a foot to two feet before flowering...

I guess benefits would be to get a limited amount of seeds!
If you need just a handful of seeds, 12/12 with a known strain to bonsai

Soooooo. Rev you are right about the plant size..I ended up with 5 beauties, all starting to flower at 12-14 inches with 6-7 nodes. 38 days old today...Will feed 1/2 strength tiger bloom this next watering.

Important to note you did 24/0 for a week first

Maybe thats the key to this 1-2 ft plants

might be good for SoG

with little 'poles' you can fit more plants into smaller areas

harvesting becomes easier as you only have one big cola to deal with no tiny popcorn nugs of inferior quality

Hey rev, I completely agree with you.. I would suggest planting double of what you plan on harvesting if from seed. I wonder how big they will end up?
Would like to also note that I started with 16 seeds and ended up with only 6 females:wtf:
Happy to say that I do have a mother started that is about twice the size of all of them (started at the same time).

hopefully the 12/12 isn't causing them to turn male?
