The 12-12 From Seed Thread

[supchaka]

Been a minute since Ive posted in here. These are some test plants, but they're 12/12 so I may as well throw them in here. Hempy style. CNS17 grow/bloom. Feminized Chaka party mix strains. The 3 in one pot will get pruned to single colas... like I said, its a test.

Question for the long-time 12-12 growers. Anyone tried their hand at white rhino 12-12? I had some today, and believe that it's my new favourite. A bit more "head high" than I'm used to, but it definitely helped my nerves and lasted for a long time!

Hello ladies and gents,im back again with another 12-12. Had a hectic time moving to a different country and opening a bar.
This time round im going to be growing Kandy Kush,Critical Mass, Lemon Skunk, Sour Cream, White WidowxBlueberry and some Dogs.
Stuck them in the jiffy pellets last night so should be sprouting soon.

ive done white rhino clones under cfls with little veg, i reckon 12-12 will be fine for them....seems to be good for most strains ive tried.

mmmmmmmmmmm sounds tasty everyone. Like cranberry jelly and turkey.

anyways i need some advice; my lil plants are growing pretty fast, and i think they gonna have another 1-2 weeks in veg before they show preflowers still as they are about 18 days old. Basically i dont wanna have to adjust my grow space, so im thinking of topping them all the the 2nd node when i see the first preflowers. In anyones actual experience, can you say wether that is too late to top teh plant. I just wanna time it so that i cut them back to about 7" when they start to flower so that they only reach like 20" by harvest. I know I shouldnt cut back during flower coz stress can turn them hermie, but cutting back at the time of the first preflowers is that too risky? thanks, hope everyone had a good christmas

Do sativa dominate strains also perform well in 12-12? Ive only heard mixed opinions on this. I dont see why not, but Im still new to growing

 

[munchies7]

mmm does pot size matters on 12/12? like would it grow more in a 1.5gal than in a 3gal ? or it would be pretty much the same? coz they grow/veg a month or so.. so how would it make any difference, currently have an 12 inches plant on 1.5gal

i use 5-10 litre pots, 10 litre pots are plenty big enough to produce some very nice plants under 12-12 from seed..

 

[munchies7]

thx del so i think ima stick with the 1.5gal i already have then, one more thing what strain do u recommend me for 12/12? im looking for a high yielding that finishes around 8 weeks coz my current lemon haze took 9-10 weeks and one is still flowering T_T and i think it has around 2 more weeks besides its not a very high yielding although it looks dank and im sure after drying it will smell DANKKKKKK. def gonna try it again after a couple of runs.

 

[munchies7]

some quality bag seeds i will run until i get my mind on what seeds to get, have some og kush from Reserva privada but i think they wont be very good for 12/12 so i probably will wait until i move from here (4 months), anyway those bag seeds will probably be 50-70% fems thats what i get they on 1L pots

super lemon haze

My sativa dom blueberry(bag seed, but apparently blueberry) is over 2ft tall and not showing any signs of slowing down yet.

Here's a picture comparison between a Cannalope Kush(right) and my Sativa dom Blueberry bagseed(left)


Both were started at the same time.

Here are some pictures of my flowering Cannalope Kush as well.

im guessing if ur growing 12/12 full room sativas is OK, but if u gonna be perpetual and intend to put plants every now and then the sativas dominant will make u rise that light leaving low light to those new 12/12 seedlings

 

[minnesmoker]

I know EXACTLY what you're talking about. I had to drop my lights at an angle, so the Sativa gets it's light, and the indicas (almost a foot lower) also get there's. I topped the Sativa at it's 3rd node, also! I'm going to try some LSTing of that big bitch, to get her more light, and get the light closer to her neighboring seedlings.

sorry the pics arent great quality I dont have the good camera with me. I with I did. I chopped this baby this morning, Spacebomb. I collected around 100 seeds from the stems from an early pollination with her brother Spacebomb. I have been toking on some other buds I chopped a few days ago

That's why I like the LEDs and sativa and 12/12fs so much. I keep them 24'' away from canopy, and seedlings are at 36''+ away and they love it.

I never move my lights, I tie my plants down if they get too close.

 

[hsfkush]

My Lemon Kush =] I am having high hopes for this as it's one of the tastiest strains I've tried.

 

[hsfkush]

Starting to see trichs on my popcorn bud leafs now on my Cannalope Kush



It's a phone camera so sorry about the quality, however, I'm planning on buying a digital microscope for my PC, so I'll be able to take awesome budshots.

What's goin' on D6 Hope all is well with you bro.
Gotta ? for you tho. I just planted 5 seeds(details in sig.) inspired by what's going on here as I said, but I was wondering do you give them 18/6 for maybe the first week or so to let them get established, since they'll have to veg a little anyways? I was thinking in those terms with the current crop.
Or are you legit 12/12 from seed? I appreciate ya in advance

 

[Endur0xX]

we have gone through this question recently... and many times!

The purist will say no, I say it doesnt make enough difference, so do what's easy for you, 2 weeks of 18-6 would come out ever so slightly bigger and makes no difference for the rest of the grow. So if it's convenient for you it's ok to go 18-6 for the first 2 weeks.

My biggest yield 12/12 fs was a true 12/12 fs, in case you are simply hoping for more yield, it will make no difference.
