The 12/12 From Seed Club, Show off Your Girls

[bluetick]

Check out my second grow in my signature! I have pics of day 29 12/12 from seed with CFLs. They look great so far.

Those cfl's seem to be doing pretty good.

I've sean the add for that phone, now the song is stuck in my head,

Ha ha! That last pic would be a good one for a Verizon Wireless commercial. More bars in more places.

Thanks Bluetick! I am amazed at how fast things happen with only 12 hours of light. They seem to be growing faster then my first plant did on 24 hours of light lol.

Yesterday though my breaker tripped & the lights never came on. When I came home from work all the new growth was bright yellow. I put the lights back on & within an hour they were starting to green up again.

hey guys, i am thinking about doing my new grow 12/12 from seed but i have always did at least 1 month veg time, if not more. i have always heard that 12/12 from seed has some draw backs. i really want to give it a go, but before i start this grow can anyone give me some insight on what are the pros of going 12/12 from seed?

The Pros are all based on the speed the plants develop. Males get weeded out early and you dont waste money or space or time on caring for them. I left mine in 16oz beer cups until I could tell sex then transplanted them into bigger pots so I didn't waste money on the soil for males.

Also this way I can grow 6 plants in my little closet, giving me different weed to smoke all the time so I don't build a tolerance to a certain type.

on adverage what is the yeild like on a 12/12 from seed? . i am hopeing from anything like 2 ounces dried from each plant.

So..umm....I understand that I need so many watts of CFL to get the ladies booming...but if I limit my watts, exactly what is the fall back of that? I know I might have a smaller yield, and it would take longer, but is that it?? I only have 2 plants they are LST'd about 2 months old I think and are starting to flower. I have a fan on them and exhaust fan, lights on a timer, I only have 85watts lmao. But to me for my first grow, doing it 12/12 and on a super tight budget I think I am doing good. They have good strong stems, good root system. My temps range 85 to 75 and humidity I can't really remember right now. From what I've read it seems high, but my 2 girls are thriving, no nutes, no MG just good ole fashioned water and dirt. The leaves are good and green I did get a little nitrogen issues when I transplanted them a few weeks ago but they have BOUNCED back and are blowing up. Speaking of them I am going to check on them.

Any advise will be taken into consideration, only constructive criticism is welcome.

THANKS MUCH GUYS!!!

I have yet to harvest a 12/12 infact this is only my second grow lol. But I read LOTS and it seems that if you know what your doing 1 ounce per plant is doable but I would not expect more.

If the leaves are not yellowing and if the plant looks healthy then it probably has enough light to live. As it gets bigger you may find the lower leaves yellowing from lack of light because CFLs do not penetrate very well.

If the plant keeps looking healthy then the only difference you would have is a smaller yield due to lack of light.

nice example there cerebralvibrator.
ive got one a bit younger that im bending and its taking a similar shape to yours.


heres a new pic of my eldest 2 12/12ers at 12wks old now
and the top of one of last years plants that i bent and tied

you still rocking that 250w?

 

[majek]

Here's a few pics of a Durban Poison clone given to me from a friend, she has been flowering for almost 3 weeks under a 250w HPS. I'm using FoxFarm OceanForest soil, tap water and Age Old Bloom liquid fertilizer. I did some minor LST training in week 1 to help the lower branches receive more light, as you can see there's some pretty bad stretch. This is my first time growing 12/12 from clone so I don't know what to expect. How does she look to you guys?

Let me know what you think!

hey guys, been reading through this thread for a few days now, informing myself, and yesterday i started a 12/12 from seed grow. My first time going 12/12 from seed. So wish me luck, i will post pics on this trhead of my 25 plants throughout my grow, thanks randyrocket for making this thread, an place for all 12/12 fr seed growers to give and recieve advice on this method.

thanks I'll check out that thread now

it was pretty healthy from day 1, the original grower said he vegged it under floros for about a week. here's a pic of when I first planted her:

here are some pics of my 12\12 from clone day 24... first 12\12... Be gentle!

 

[bluetick]

That looks great majek! And um, if you have not smoked Durban Poison before you are in for one heck of a treat. That is some really tasty and laid back herbs.

I have never seen a clone like that flowering dd. Looks good though! The shitty thing about having a 1000 hps is if you get it too close you will scorch your plants. Had 20 of them today get toasted! I want to drink now.

 

[cerebralvibrator]

Looking good there DD, starting to bud up nicely

Bluetick, you using a 1000HPS ? Thats some power I used to use a 600HPS until a couple of years ago, they can certainly do the business.


Anyway, I'm at the opposite end of the spectrum here ! I'm a commited CFL grower nowdays but what I like about this thread is that we can all appreciate each others work without that constant "you should that, or do this" kind of post.

Heres my ladies again at day56 from germination 12/12 all the way of course. Northern Lights, 350watts of CFL's in a metre sq cabinet PLUS a bit of natural sun of good days. Had a touch of fan burn earlier but all new growth green and healthy.

The next 20 days or so should see them fill out nicely

those plants look great for a CFL grow, keep it up!

Looks good CV. I totally fucked up mine with this large light. The good thing is it is only 46 days into it, and with cuttings coming right behind these I am sure to get it right one of these times. LOL
