I have 11 females going from seed at the moment. 3 of them are topped and the rest either growing regular or lst'd. I can honestly say the plants topped will make a much better yield than the regular or lst'd. Considerably more node sites, and I got 4 medium colas vs 1 large cola with regular plants. I'll post up pictures before and after harvest, should be happening in 2 1/2 weeks or so. They are around 60 days old, I topped them around day 20-21.

Hi 12/12ers, just here to report that i'm currently cracking 3 seeds - 1 dna sleestack reg, and 2 eva monster fems. All in the soil now, the sleestack is fully popped and 2" above ground, had trouble with the monsters cos the shell is made of kevlar or something and the sprouts were trapped in their grip :cuss:hopefully they'll shoot up soon and i can start up a grow thread and get on here with updates. :peace: kudos to all you 12/12 from seed folk!

Hi all...I currently have my very first full grow underway with 2 seeds, 1 experimental clone (cut from a plant past 6 weeks flower), and a few other clones. I'm planning to veg the lot until the clones have rooted for a couple of weeks, but I'm thinking I might throw a couple of 12/12 from seed in there when I flip the lights. It probably won't be for another 3 weeks so I won't have anything for the contest, but this whole thread has inspired me.

Are we allowed to top plants we have entered into the contest? I want to top mine to keep it low.
i have 2 big bomb in day 2. i want to top for 2 or 4 cola(uncle ben method). when i must to make this? is better to top when grow with 12/12/ this big bomb? or leave to grow without topping?
use LST rather...
Why is it better to LST instead of Topping when doin 12/12~Seed?
because u dont want to turn it into a hermi or male..plus you could top it but it will get stunned most likely causing high stress ...if u had a veg period then yeah of course .. but i think the purpose of 12 12 from seed is for height and speed of harvest ..soo.. lst would work since ur going one big cola.. lst to get more bud sites more light denser more yield.. ehhh without the hard stress and what not am i right dell
I had this plant started for the contest and it was growing really fast, that is until I topped it. It's started growing really slow under 12/12 now. So, long story short, dont top in 12/12 it just slows you down.

I used subcool's version... is there a better way? I followed his directions step by step (theres videos so it was pretty easy lol) Can you point me in the direction of a thread with a higher yielding way to do it???

By the way I was using wet bud and it weighed around 30g and it's pretty immature. Would it be more effective to let it dry? I've read you can do it either way =/ lol oh well I have a crapload of immature bud now so I'll be trying a few diff techniques...

Thinking about doing hash oil next...even though it looks awful for your lungs lol... just wanna be high !!

Are you sure you did it right though??? I mean you need a lot of bud to make a little bit of hash!!!!!! and if it is immature then there are not as many triches either!!!!
