can you veg for too long?

[Mungo]

Is there a maximum period you can veg for?

 

[fdd2blk]

you are only limited by the size of your area. the plants will double in size once they start to flower. you can veg them for years if you have the room to finish them.

 

[Mungo]

A 200 foot plant would is something I would like to see.

 

[Gutter]

Whats the least?

Whats the least?

no veg time. some people start seeds out on 12/12.

personally i'd say 12 nodes tall, from seed.

i wonder...

you'd think it would eventually flower even under 24/0.

but i guess people prolly do keep moms alive for a couple years... and every clones genetic age dates back to it's mother.

I wonder HOW big a plant could get if it had unlimited 24 hour a day sunlight ?!?!

i suppose it would eventually reach structural constraints due to its genetics... this will entertain me for awhile

it needs to be tested. i have mental images. like an oak tree being rolled out of a warehouse about mid august so it can flower in the natural sunlight.

oh, hell, i was thinking of those california pines (size-wise) that cars can drive thru

and then started thinking about the flowering

 

[Gutter]

So If i keep my plant 12/12 since beggining, when will it flower ?

i've never done it so i'm not sure. people here have done it though. there may be a thread somewhere.

 

[awry]

prob slow growth then small budds, still best kinda is 1-2 ft n gooo

 

[mojorzn10@yahoo.com]

I have heard of Durban Poison getting to 15 feet plus. Just make sure your container isnt two small b/c the plant will get root bound if it gets too big

that shit about flowering from seedlings is bs. You will end up with a bud about an inch tall. have fun smoking that.

 

[Atea]

Buddy of my got a 70L bucket, and growing a motherplant in that.
Would imagine it will be HUUUUUUGE!!

... i would have fun shoving a 1 inch bud in my pipe.

you ever tried it?

Flowering seedlings doesn't work that way - they wont flower untill they're physically mature enough (5 or 6 weeks, or so!), regardless of the lighting schedual. They will start flowering about the time thier nodes start alternating.

On the other hand - if you flower clones (from a mature mother plant) as soon as they've rooted, you could end up with some real "runts"!

yep, 12/12 on seedlings will make em streatch till they fall, die or actually flowere, and then...

 

[fdd2blk]

you guys are wrong, but whatever.

 

[predator0187]

no such thing as root bound. ask fdd
