The 12-12 From Seed Thread

I don't have the room to try this, but I'm wondering if someone with 2 nice areas or tents might have already done this or would be willing to try it...if not, maybe after I move if I have a bigger place.

Take maybe 4-5 seeds, one per pot, all the same size and medium and put them in the veg tent. Take the first one as soon as it sprouts and move it to 12/12, move the second one after 1 week of veg, next after 2 weeks of veg, etc. until they are all in 12/12.

Take lots of pics and compare growth and end result just to see what the actual sacrifice/gain is per vegging not at all, just for a week, or for more as far as overall time to maturity and dry yield.

I mean, if going to 12/12 from seed causes a 20% drop in yield from waiting a week or two, is it really worth it? If the yields are basically the same, then great...faster finish and less electricity, but I'd be curious to know what gives you the overall most yield per day of growing + cost of growing.

Shit...if someone's willing to document it maybe I'll pay for the seed.
I'll give the pick of my collection!
 
Honestly...what is the yield increase when switching to Coco from say a verm/perl mix? I like being able to water every fifth day or so as opposed to having to do it every other day with Coco (haven't tried Coco yet, but I'm thinking it'd be a pain in my ass to have to water every 2 days).

Is the increase substantial enough to bother? I mean, I like to be able to go away for a few days and don't want to be a slave to my plants, and I don't want to set up a drip system or something that could possibly malfunction and get me busted when the old lady below me calls maintenance...

Hey Lag, Those plants look good in that crazy mix you have there.lol:bigjoint:....rw
thanks man so are you pro-manning?

ive just been worried the guy is gonna get hurt, that pinched nerve in his neck will be extremely easy to aggravate. Plus with guys like Sean payton out there even if the broncos did go most the way he would pay 10k to get him hurt. Why didn't we keep tebow???? :( he could of at least been backup i understand there would be controversy or whatever but tebow learning from manning would of been BEAST and in 2-3 years when mannings done he could of taken over. But now we gonna watch him take mark sanchezs job in jets i swear if broncos lose to em im never gonna get over it lol

Hey Lag, yes I'm pro-manning, I watched my first Bronco game in Nov. 1962, on black and white tv.lol Tebow only fans cause too much trouble for my liking. Peyton has been living at Dove Valley,Tebow been making the talk show circuit. Tebow probably blows the Jets up. I believe in John plan, we will be fine.:hump:...rw

we will be, the defense really has to be looked at not in the line department but in the CB/SS department bailey is great and dawkins is just fine [when hes available lol] they just released Goodman because he was horrendous need more guys with experience passing defense is where we were burned last year. D-line is great no complaints there, O-Line didn't do too bad. We got some recievers, i hope we possibly get a RB to help Moreno [gets injured alot :/]

I'm just now beginning to realize that my TD has apparently been suffering from N toxicity for quite a while now :dunce:

That dark, dark green color, the leaves curling down a little at the edges and the tips curling down, the big fan leaves feeling thin and dry and the new growth all twisted and curly...



Damn!! I'll bet I lost some serious yield because of this... oh well, first grow, it's a learning curve :-? lol
