Probably as the roots are gonna be that much more developed, but you also have a bigger plant plus your more likely too have side branching, which for me isnt what im after i want one fat ass cola.

In what I bolded, are you saying if I do 24 hour light for 3 weeks from seed then flip to 12/12 I'll have a bigger yield?
I have a couple grows under my belt and never done 12/12 from seed before and I want to know.

At a guess yes, ive never vegged for only 3 weeks then flipped. There getting more light a day so i would of thought after 3 weeks 24hr light there going to be further developed than a plant 12/12 from seed so chances are it will yield more.

What is the reason you go for one huge cola?

So i can fit more plants in my grow space, plants that stay within there pots and dont branch like mad allow me to get that extra few plants into my grow area. 12/12 from seed plants tend to grow with little branching and just a main cola (although this dont happen always) so i do a sog type grow and grow pot to pot or with very little space in between. Its one of the reasons i like 12/12 from seed.

Well I have a 3 month period to grow no more. So the Tangerine dream has a flower time of 10 weeks or 70 days leaving me a maximum of 2 weeks for veg. All I can really do.

cool thread. subbed. I'm a noob, but I got a bag seed that I planted the other day its been on 24/0 for 2 days inside a stealth PC box i made, but I'm thinkin when my flower room lights come on tonight I'm gonna throw it in there and see what happens. I got a couple clones too that have barely taken root, but they are in soil now. Jimmy, you said those two plants were from clones barely rooted thrown into 12/12 right? I'm thinkin the clones might go into the flower room tonight too...

Yes mate, i use rockwool normally to clone. They had a good few roots comming out the cube (small inch and half one) then i potted in coco and flipped 'em. Next time ill give em a week or so longer for better root development then flip'em.

i have 1 600w hps at the min but getting another one in the week, i have a cool tube question. im new to using cool tubes an i was wondering about the setup of them at the min its
FAN>DUCT>COOLTUBE>DUCT>FILTER
but when i set up this room i want it
COOLTUBE>DUCT>COOLTUBE>DUCT>FAN>DUCT>FILTER
will this setup be ok or will i bust my fan with all the heat from 2 600w hps??

alright sweet. I'll wait a little longer before putting the clones in the flowering room then. They barely have any roots. I took the clones after my plants had been flowering for only like 2 days, but already one clone is starting to get white hairs and it is in 24/0. The fresh sprout is going into the flower room tonight tho.

Fan should be ok, what CFM is its rating. The general rule of thumb from what ive read is 200CFM per light so for two lights your fan needs to move over 400CFM. Aircooled lights work best with no restrictions (filter) ive found but your intended way will work fine. Im using a dedicted fan just for cooling my lights, my extraction is covered by another. My 6in RVK cools two 600w and is rated at 495CFM.

Yeah the better the roots the more bud, Im only after a 0z per plant when i do my clone sog runs so i reckon if i givem an extra week for the roots to develop ill hit that without the plant getting too big.
