to be completely honest with you, find a journal or somthing on this, dont go around saying this works becuase one kid did it, and posted one picture of a little plant, i can def say that your plant doesnt flower until it is matured and sexed, and well that takes times in the veg stage and in the flower stage who is to say it will even happen because now your forcing it to do something it really doesnt want to do. i mean u say they grow under 12/12 until there mature, u might as well put them under 20/4 until they mature and have full size plants when u flower instead of little runts, it probably takes longer for them to mature in 12/12. seems like a ppl "think" this works but in reality, u get alot less, in the same time.
