it depends on strain, light, grower. ect the list is long.

this is my plant at 52"+


this one joeyjoejoe grew.



what type of hight would i be looking at befor flower? or would the plant be flowering the whole time its growing?
From the day the break the surface of the soil the light is set to 12/12. It stays on 12/12 for the whole grow.



im sorry if these questions are stupid to yall but this starting 12/12 from seed is a whole new world to me!
The only stupid question is the one you don't ask. I'll ask stupid stuff when i'm stoned. MrsRocket might even say all mine are ifey.

oh can i use cfl`s for this?
Yes you can, it will just make you plants a little smaller. Check the others that post here. I've seen nice cfl grow. My next grow will be a cfl.

Hope this helps.

Yupp. We know, thats why we wanted to do it.

He changed his mind on pinapple express, and is just
going to do sensi star, quicksilver, and a bagseed.

He is going to clone them and sex them so we know what
they are.

We ordered femme seeds from attitude. The sensi was from
a bag so we're hoping its a girl.

He is ordering a grow box that will be used exclusively for flowering clones.

He says he wants the mothers to stay outside.
Great, looking forward to seeing you grow.

Goood Grow,
Randy

This picture was late in the day on day 68 of a 12/12 from seed.



Day 69
This pictue is with the flash on. The plant in the light is the one on the left. I thought they had stopped growing?

me in soil I use nothing less then 5 gallons but personally I think less then 3 by flower is too small for any plant over a foot It binds the roots and makes the yield smaller as you can see how thin your colas are. Bigger pot would double thier size

I wouldn't call this a small cola...grown in a 1 liter pot...


Its fun seeing what you can do with the smaller pots and having smaller, non branchy plants is the point. Colas are my favorite buds on the plant, I like just growing a bunch of them.. Easier to trim as well. I'm lazy

Ive got a 1000watt HPS and a 20lb co2 tank to go along with it...im really interested in doing 12/12 from clone to harvest. I want to do 15 plants and harvest every 60-70 days...but on the other hand ive got people telling me just to veg and flower normally, and some people saying just do a dwc setup...

so..would it be worth it to do the 15 plants in 2-3 gallon pots under 12/12 for 7- days?

It all depends on what you want the end results to be. Pick a decent strain with a good amount of sativa and you'll be alright. The last two plants i harvested were an ak47 x nycd cross and each yielded near an ounce dry. I think that 15 of those would be well worth it..

The minute you mention 12/12 from seed on these forums your in for a lot of bashing/negativity/told it wont work etc, etc. I have about 20 plants going in 32oz pots and room for more. Once you dial in your strain on this type of growing it will be well worth it in my opinion.

If your aren't convinced grow a couple in big pots, veg them etc like normal and then when your on 12/12 throw in some that are 12/12 from seed and see what happens. That way you get the best of both styles.


Think of it as 15 colas.


I can promise you this. The results will be far better than you think they will be.

hahah, i like that attitude. I've been getting mixed message basically. everyones saying i should and that i shouldnt. this is my first indoor grow, and as of right now im tired of smoking the grass clumped up underneath the lawnmower and paying out the ass for it hahah. I've got 3 beans that just got done germinating, and on the june 13th i'll be going home and picking up some clones from a friend of mine. Mazar kush, Kali mist, and aurora indica. two of each. I might stay away from the aurora though since i want to do 12/12 from clone to finish.

I've also got this 20lb co2 tank, and im hoping that will increase the size of my harvest tremendously.
any thoughts?

I'd save the co2 for your second grow.

wow.. didnt see this thread..

i JUST started a Super Silver Haze seed straight to 12/12 (in soil now.. home made DWC in a week or 2) just a lil sprout right now

im also doing Arjans Strawberry Haze (LSTing that one) and Hawaiian Snow (topping) but those arent going straight to 12/12 :) i like to try different things :p

My only thoughts are try it out and let us know how it works. I don't have co2 and probably wont for a long time, but i'd be interested in hearing your results. We have to prove the naysayers wrong. There is no single right way to do this. The right way is the way that works for you!
