alright lads .. do you think a SOG grow would be better using 12/12 from seeds or clones ? i know clones would prob finish a week or 2 earlier than the seeds but is there any other difference to say a 10 plant SOG of 5 various diff strain cuttings and a 10 plant SOG 12/12 from 5 diff strains of seed? pros cons ?

talking about freebies Sea of green has some great freebies if you support the RIU lads and buy any breeders boutique pack of seeds from them ... theres loads of free seeds but quite a few are just single regs which is abit crappy but i suppose good if your looking to pollon chuck :)

wow.. that's a ton of freebies..

yeh i should have enough to last until the next lot is ready.. from now till the 21st dec is 10 weeks..
so 2-3 weeks until flower then 7-8 weeks flowering..

the pineapple express says 50-60 days as does the bubblegum so expecting about 7-8 week finish probably..

so should just squeeze it in ;) hopefully lol

that's the plan anyway

Pick the right strain and you can sog 12/12 from seed although you wont achieve a nice even canopy that clones will give you. I would run a sog all the same strain be it clones or seed but particulary with seeds as they throw out all sorts of varibles in height and structure even if there all the same strain, so throw a few different strains in the mix and god knows how its gonna end up. Im running SOG on my next run but ill be using clones as i think this will give me the best results but good results can be had with beans but id stick to one strain.

Sorry, dumb question here, I haven't read all the pages in this thread, but let me see if i understand...12/12 from seed, I can use my hps lights as long as they are spaced properly, grow stout, good yielding ladies, perpetually, and harvest and yield just about the same as bigger plants in the same area? Are the ladies prone to her or anything else negative about growing 12/12? If not, why dont more people grow in this fashion?

A little once in a while? I guess that's not so bad, considering how many one can grow...would autoflowers do well in 12/12?

recommended light schedule for auto's is between 18/6 and 24/0 (although i believe its best to let them get some rest.. you wouldn't wanna be awake for 24 hours a day why would they?)

anything less usually results in reduced yields.

I love when first time growers veg for a month in a tiny box, and try to flower only to find themselves with a monster plant. Cfl setup sounds great! Just use the right bulbs for flowering.
