It`s a 12/12 from seed competition though this means after sprouted the plant must be under a light cycle of no more or less than 12 hours of light a day .
Everyone is welcome to show off their plants , give advice or ask questions to each other on this thread if they so wish .

Update just some pics of the two bagseeds I`m entering and the setup just added 85 watt cfl with a quick solution for now . Using around 250 watts of Cfl now ..Added two more pots 4 inch pots with a mixture of the landrace swazi red and the unknown hybrid . Don`t got money for seeds I`m a broke student =) these will do for now . The comp is now on got one sprouted .
12 August 2012
Tried to bait people in the comp with the noob comment didn`t work let`s get some more entries .
I`m using the 12/12 cycle because I`m moving house in 3 and a half months so hopefully all the new plants will be done by them . Peace all .

Hey Kieshed....One of my beans popped today so I offically have 1 entry so far YAY!! I just finished up my 2nd grow and was suppose to wait until fall to start my next, but I was feelin kinda sad not having any growing...then I saw this thread..lol! It gave me a reason to try an sneak a little grow in before my big fall/winter garden. I figured it's not gonna be too hot in my closet with just a few of the lights going...and summer is almost over, right?



Strains: One popped so far.....Skunk (sativa) from my friends farm. She's been growing this strain for 20+ years. I grew it/harvested it indoors my first grow (all CFL's) and she hermied late so I got a few seeds. Shorty was so short and bushy, very colorful and skunky. Uppidy high Here is a picture of what she looked like:
(not 12/12) 100_5213.jpg We called her the Hamburger Helper Hand....lol! She brings back great first grow memories for me Hope her baby bean is a girl!

Container: So far in a jiffy peat pod growing roots Not sure what size pot I'll use yet.
Medium: peat moss and bark so far.....will be using Fafard 1-PV Growing mix when she's a bit stronger and I find her home.
Nutes: Neptunes Harvest Organic - Fish - Fish & Seaweed - Straight Seaweed
Lighting: So far.....2 26w 6500k and 4 42w 2700k 12/12 light schedule starting today Hopefully she'll have two sisters in there soon. I only have the 1 26w 6500k on her right now because she was just born this morning.

Plant# 1 (Shorty I) sprouted on 8/12
Plant# 2 (Shorty II) hasn't sprouted yet
Plant# 3 (Nirvana Bubblelicious) pheno stress hermie from my last grow. She had only 1 mature seed and this is it - hasn't spouted yet

Here are some pics of my germination and the one Shorty I who sprouted today (after 36hrs of germ) Hope I see the other 2 sprout tomorrow.

Oh, and I also have NO experience growing 12/12. I've been doing some reading up on some 12/12 grows and I'm excited to share info and learn from all of you

Happy to be here

My germ failed ;( starting a new one, unknown bagseed.

^Mine also taking long just got one in the comp so far other two pots i loaded with seeds from those two kind of bud to ensure something germs . Think the fan blowing across the soil at that level is making it take longer .
Welcome to the comp Calicatt79 . Winter is just ending here so my cab might start to get a little hot . That HHH bud looks decent colas look massive and compact realy nice job with the Cfl`s . Hmm wish I had some Bubblelicious seeds it`s my favourite tasting strain will get some of them soon I`m just broke for now . The most potent I smoked was Northern Lights was 20$ a gram a ridiculous price , but it made me hallucinate the way someone who has never smoked would perceive and fear getting stoned would be like . Favourite type of high though is motivational and cerebral sativa kind of high local seedbank here is selling Durban Poison and Thai seeds in it`s pure sativa catergory so will hook some of them soon .
Anyways just a rant .
Loving the strains being entered and the setups going to have weed from all over the world going in the comp it`s sick .
Going to update the roaster quickly haha peace .
