The 12-12 From Seed Thread

Hey guys, been lurking in here for a while. This thread inspired me to start my own 12-12 grow. I only had one bagseed, and germd it, and luckily it popped. It's sprouted and it's now 4 days old. I'm growing it under 4 26 watt 2700k cfls. Have everything I need, 10-10-10 nutes and 0-15-0 for bloom. Last grow I had to rip her up because I got ratted out. Learned the dont tell anyone lesson the hard way. Anyways. I'll keep updated and post pics when the lights are on. One question though, what size pot would you recommend for a 12-12 grow?

thats a fair pile of leaves on the floor.......maybe your ph is out?..........have to say i would be doing exactly what your doing with the n and mag......can take a few days to green up again............nothing wrong with tall and lanky if you got the room.
damn, you might be right about the ph being out.. but not too sure. I have had some probelms with my ph meter. I just got a new one and not happy with that one either. Do you know if PH up and Ph down solutions go bad after a while? It seems that i need to add like 50 drops of my ph up to get my ph to go up like .2%.. Thanks for the postitve feedback on long and lanky. have a very bright sunshiney day del!

i've read all 205 pages over the last couple of weeks to save me going back over em just a couple of quick questions if you don't mind del
is this coco ok? http://www.3ch.co.uk/growing-media/others/canna-coco-coir/prod_457.html and would you stick to the canna nutes?
i've got 12 going under a 600w i think you said you had this many? how much did you get dry off them? coz on my first grow i got 17 dry which i was well pleased with :-)
cheers mate
i only used my 600 on its own once and cant remember the weight.................last time i had the 400 and 600 in my cab and the last 7 i chopped were 18-1/2 dry........i am in the mind that less is more.....canna coco is what most of the guys use but i use stuff from fertile fibre cause its cheap, comes in 5kg dry blocks and doesnt take much space...i have used canna a-b but these days im hesi and hammerhead pk

Welcome to the 12/12 party i hope you do give it a go..As for the time frame it do vary from strain to strain more so with sativas to indicas as always but even with some others these are mine and they are just under 80 days and i tink they have about 2 more weeks left...so im looking at 2 2/3 months to 90 days average from sprout to harvest ...

nice! just about to order my coco,hesi and hammerhead pk do you use any nutes for the first few weeks in coco? cheers
no need to nute right off and no harm if you do ........but within a week i start a low dose say 2ml per litre....and then within another week 5ml a litre..................some peeps say not for 2 weeks but thats bs.......compost and soil have nutes from start so why not coco.........hesi is gentle on the plants so dont think you will have a problem.....feed them each or every other day....you getting canna coco or the mega cheap fertile fibre??
