Spoilt for choice there robbie mate, i aint done none of that lot so cant say although ive just germed 4 big bud to go along with my 24 lemon skunk that have just cracked. What size grow space you got and what lights you use.
Grow space isnt huge , 100cm lengh , 60cm width and roughly 100cm actual growth hight after taking out the light, filter, fan and pots ... im going to be using a 400w HPS this time round and inside a cooltube, going to be upgrading to a air cooled hood in the new year for better light spread .... what ya think mate ?

Sounds good mate, my cabs are 1msq ish and i reckon ill get 9 plants 12/12 from seed in there depending on strain although i built them with clone runs in mind. I would go with around 6ish plants 12/12 from seed in that space mate and hope you dont get any monsters or ones that branch like mad. I like me cooltubes but i like me air cooled hoods even better but they are rather big, aerowings are good choice mate and they wont break the bank.

Gonna have a sore head in the morning billy hahah. Yeah im thinking 3x3 give'em roughly sqft each, when i do my clone runs ill cram 20 of the fuckers in there:lol: but in smaller pots. Prob get away with without cooltubes this time of year but i take no chances, if like me you go with air cooled hoods for a cab grow then you can use smaller intakes/extraction as most of the heat is dealt with from the hood fan. Ive got a 600w for my new cabs which will cover that area good enough i reckon.

do you think theres any point in lollipoping plants grown 12/12 from seed ? would this cause no side branching and just 1 bigger main cola or loss of yield ?

Ive thought about lollipoping 12/12ers but ive been lucky in that i aint had that many that go nuts with branching so aint had to do it. like billy says the shitty little ones wouldnt hurt but i wouldnt go mad with it. Dunno how much shock it would do on a 12/12 from seed but they really dont have time to recover with this method, no fuck ups in the early stages mate. Most ive grown have grown with one big ass cola and some strains with a little branching but nothing too mad.

GOod luck tommorrow Jimbo with the cab work..sorry to hear of the tits up thingy ..hahaha.. i bet your cream crackered with all this work....gotta love the uk slang.. i think its cute.

Robby.. you have to grow Jack Herer.. that herb is amazing.. its in my top 5 favorites right now. the high is immediate and knocks you right down with a major head rush after one hit, the taste and smell are beautiful and the high is like the perfect combo of sativa and indica..... Im super jealous mate.. cuz ive been wanting to grow Jack for some time but the seeds are hella expensive.. my friend told me that its next to impossible to get the original Jack Herrer.. but i have smoked it from a grower locally here in washington state and i bought some in Amsterdam and both times they were amazing.. so .... im completey sold...im looking forward your massive 12/12 grow.

Should we all do the same strain to make it fair??

By the way, I do not lollipop my plants at all during 12/12 from seed my side branches have massive colas man! I'll post pics.

Dunno if were going for the biggest, fattest, oddest plant yet delboy aint decided what the game plan is. We all have different setups so thats gonna play a part people using bigger lights might have an advantage depending what were trying to achieve so perhaps there needs to be a light limit , i dunno lol. With all growing the same strain you got different phenos plus the chance of someone getting a freak, we could all grow the same strain with different lights and have a right old mix, decisions, decisions. Yeah i havent lollipopped with 12/12, if ya growing a few then it may not be necessary but if you have a dozen on the go and they go mad then choppin the bastards might be the only option if space is an issue.

yuppie let the newbie win ;)

well I have no idea how you guys do it but my plants look nothing like many here. I seem to have the bushy plants for 12/12 They are hitting their stretch mode now but they have a lot more leaves on them than anyone else here it seems. (or I just do selective reading of pictures).

I have a question for all those that have used hesi pk. when should I start adding it to my plants? I read that it should be 4 weeks before it finishes but I am not much of a week counter as I want to go by the look of the plant. What should the plant look like when I should start adding pk to the mix?

I have no idea how you guys can fit 9 in a meter square space ... hell mine is 80cm square and I am starting to fill it out already.

Damm thos girls are bushy tick tack, aint seen 12/12ers like tho girls... looking good tho man. I add pk when she starts budding, and stop about 2 weeks or so before i chop but others may do things different. From what ive read pk 13/14 is a bit out dated now and theres better stuff on the market so im looking into them. Its all down to strain mate when it comes to numbers, i had 11 in just over 1sqm under one 600w and i could have got one or two more in as well.

so in the next feed I should slowly start adding in some pk?

I have pk 13/14 now so when that is finished I will look into other stuff. As long as it helps :D

Yeah mate i would start it now on the low dose and go from there, just follow whats on the back of the bottle as far as dosage goes ( i cant remember) and work your way up over the weeks. Overdrive from AN is what im gonna try, supposed to be good stuff. Dels been using hammerhead and ive been meaning to find out how it compares to hesi pk as he's used that stuff for a while now.

I have the same thing tic, except mine are freaking NBA player tall for 12/12ers, and bushy as all hell too! probably the size of light we use (i use 1k, and from your setup it looks like you do too)
