started seeds 14 days ago and planted them on the rim of a 10 gal. tub. I have probably way too many seeds so I started 12-12 today. its in the corner of my 4x4. ill get pics up tomorrow... I just wanted to see if anyone has experience with either the tub grow and or starting seeds so early and what to expect from both..? thanks if u can help

got the idea after I shot a seed from 12-12 and got about 3gs in a 16oz cup its whole life. so I figured if I put more seeds in more dirt with better light I could do atleast 3gs times 30 seedlings I figured it would be worth a shot. I also need to harvest earlier than thought that's why im flipping soo early. well I guess atleast ill get an OZ. and some experience.

first of all shouldnt be putting seeds in the same container, they will fight for space to root in, being detrimental to your girls...what would be better is is run a few girls (depending on your space) with the best light you can, you need to give some INFO...like WHAT lights you gunna run? what is the size of your space? are you going to need to deal with excess heat? excess cold? Give us sum deets my mon

10 gallons of dirt isn't enough for seedlings?I put 2 tomatoe plants in my tubs and they grow huge. I see people have trees in 1 gallons.... and if Im 12-12 early they shouldn't get too big. I have the tub in corner of my 4x4 tent with a 250watt for just it. and in the middle of tent I have a 600watt. doing both vert. Temps are very good. I have nice floor fan, nice exhaust fan and AC ducting going into tent. my main plants are in 5gallon smart pots.

Yeah man with your setup I would DEFINITELY not be putting so many plants within the same area...my advice would be to uproot them to separate containers now before you regret it later

just my $0.02, you will find a lot of information in here that is incredibly helpful, one of which is a golden rule of one pot one plant my friend ;) Yeah you can get a monster with a 1 gallon container but that is once again 1 plant per container, using the proper proportions of nutrients you can grow pretty big trees...

good luck in all regards, feel free to check out my current grow if you'd like, I have 4 girls in 5 gallon containers CHEERS!
