Sorry I don't have experience with those particular strains.
My experience with 12/12 from seed has been good, I doubt there is a NOTICEABLE drop in potency. I'd argue that it's more natural for a plant to grow 12/12 from seed then it is to veg it in 18/6 and drastically switch the schedule to force flower. 12/12 from seed is a fine way to see what you are working with, if you want to keep the plant reveg it, it's not that hard every plant I have tried has reveg just fine. Then again some say reveging does harm too... keep in mind all these people say this stuff based on opinion rather then fact.
Sadly I don't have testing available to me or I'd already have this resolved
tip, top/fim when you see preflowers show up 4-6 node ish 3-5 weekish
It won't slow down and you'll get some nice flower stretch and more tops. Heavy yeilders can be dangerous 12/12 from seed molds can take over huge nugs quick.

Just thought I would post a pic of my strawberry blue that I am running 12/12 from seed. I've named her Crazy Bitch. I don't think I could have vegged her any due to room constraints. You think I should prune it some?

Does anyone remember the bloom booster that del6666 used. Was it Hammerhead? I do remember it def had a shark as the mascot on the bottle.

Hey,did you have a light leak?
Hey Dr Amber,haven't seen you around lately(I been gone)but when someone mentions photoron,
I tell of your good grows! Without going to the front & looking I think Del was running hammerhead.
@Del,wanted to ask if you are still running Bomb seeds and which 1 does the best?
I think Dr Amber wanted to know what bloom booster?
Have a blessed day!!

Hey fellers,
I'm new to this. I got a girl I've been vegging and LSTing hard for 25 days. Now I want three sisters from different misters to join her in the same space. Since the original girl is pretty well ready to flower, I was thinking I'd have her sisters start from 12/12 along with their older sis. Am I better off vegging everybody for a little while longer?

Alright, so I flip to 12/12, harvest the older sis in two month, but then when do I harvest the new girls?

When they are ready. Why count days? Just look at the plant, it will let you know.

Okay so I am going to be growing some Haze testers...breeder says they will be 13-16week flower times, so I am going to go 12/12 from seed...or actually I want to go 14/10 or 13/11 and then after two weeks go to 13/11 or 12/12 depending on what I start with...does this sound pretty good for a pure sativa type? I am also wondering about containers.
Should I do option 1 or 2
Option 1
1. Soak
2. Plant in peat pellet
3 leave in pellet for several days-go to solo hempy-1 gallon to finish
Option 2
1.soak
2. Plant in peat pellet
3. Go to 1 gallon
I guess what I'm asking is is it better to uppot like a normal grow?
Oh, also, I will be using veg lights until the end of their 3 week or so of flower, that's optimal correct? Thanks y'all

I'm giving 12/12 a try. I think I prefer 2-3 weeks veg, but I think crazy bitch would have outgrown her space. I decide to try 12/12 because I only had 1 plant in the garden. She stinks like diesel and paint thinner and is sticky as hell. Frosty as hell too. I was about to can her because she was not blooming vigorously and then I read that strawberry blue was a nute whore so I doubled up on her dose of big bloom and she took off.

Hmm, here's a question I couldn't find an answer to. What would be the difference if any vs doing 24/0 for 2 weeks then flower vs going 12/12 from the start? The plant seems to adapt to a smaller enviorment better if grown from 12/12 but that's all I could figure out?

I can't give a straight up honest to goodness answer to that other then I think it is different strokes for different folks. I've not been growing indoors long enough to know.

It's a great way to hunt/test, especially when I will be running a expected 14weeek haze...and in hempy? The yield is pretty much at 7-20 grams per 2 liter, and in a SOG....
