About to go 12/12 what do you think to my plants???

[poundsmoker]

Just changed the timer to 12/12 for these girls they've come a long way since i got them overcome some serious nute burn and still thrived

depending on your space and how big they look I'd let them go a couple more weeks....Just my opinion.....they look healthy though

there about a foot tall dude dont have too much head room and i'm runnin a 600w hid so don't want em too close to it but hoping to get a bigger space soon then gonna veg em till pre-flower got a nice mother vegging out

does anyone else have any feedback

I love the Santa that was lifted off of Nirvana's site.

I think your plants are too young. While they may be 4-5 weeks old from seed, they are in what looks like starter pots. If your goal is to grow 2-3 ounces, you are on track. If you want a bigger yield, let em grow a bit more. If you are out of space, I guess flowering is all that is left.

The strain is hyperactive/speedweed from doggies nuts if anyone was curious i agree before anyone jumps the gun they are rediculously over price seeds but i paid a pitance for about 20+ fems

yeh the santas cool how much longer would u say serapis i could hold out a lil longer if its needed??

If you've got limited space like you've said switch them now. They look great btw

I say if you're only one day into 12/12, go back on 24/0, top the plants, veg them two more weeks, then kick back. If you have to grow short, this is the best way to increase your yield by producing additional colas. All you're doing by kicking back now is reducing your yield by more than 1/2.

Root the toppings and you have guaranteed females ready for your next grow too.

I like this advice. I'd consider it and the two weeks he is recommending, easily. You could also cut off all of the odd numbered branches and your plants could be grown in 2-D, or flat if space is at a premium. If you have the room, veg a bit longer, don't be afraid to prune for space and tops. Your harvest weight will thank you very much!

They will if he tops them.

 

[NLXSK1]

Well, he didnt ask about topping. I just simply answered his question.

 

[poundsmoker]

[poundsmoker]

[Melvan]

Well its been roughly a week from the start of 12/12 but alot seems to of happened the ladies have streched about a foot, the nodes have swollen to acommodate more weight and increase fluid transfer.
The reg NLS that was in with them showed sex turned out male but what can ya do lol. Also had som drama with heat stress was out most of the day came back to find the girls what would appear to be laying down to have a nap temps where a wopping 95-100F not good. I jumped straight on it and have managed to reg temps to a nice 80-87F perfect in comparison. All that remains is to be more vidulant and hope the stress wasn't enough to herm the ladies any feedback would be greatly appreciated. + Rep plz if i deserve it if not point me in the right direction.

Peace

If you have about 3 ft or more height then i would concur need afew more weeks vegging,flower at around a ft tall and you should pull a nice weight.

 

[poundsmoker]
