12/12 from Seed?

recently saw Del66666's journal showing off all his buds that were grown 12/12 from seed and was very impressed. Was just wondering due to lack of space in my grow closet i was thinking this would be a good way to grow some females while also speeding up the process? Or should i at least get a 3 week veg before starting to flower? Will the 3 weeks veg significantly improve yeild/size of the finished flower?
 
how much hight have you got to play with ? 12/12 from seed will still be in "veg mode" for acouple of weeks befor it starts flowering so for a 70 day strain just do from seed poping 84-91 days :-) final hight depending on potsize / strain is 12/24" i get roughly the same size plant/yeild from a 12/12 as i do a 3week veg from poping

I do 12/12 from seed, for fun I veg a couple 10 days, they are sativa/dom. I had to super crop them, they were growing into the light almost 6 ft off floor....rw

Well i accidentaly written closet instead of drawer (down in the shed, stealth grow) so my grow room is tiny, 34" x 20.5" x 15.5" or turned on its side is 20.5" x 15.5" x 34" so a very limited grow space, Might only be able to grow one plant but plan on adding around 10 cfls...

You need to maintain low temps if you don't want a sativa to stretch.
I was actualt thinking about vegging under cfl and flowering outside... its nearly winter here, but we get no snow and no frost.

Im gonna be growing Royal Queens special kush and if theres room NL x BB so dominantly indica plants, still need to control temps shouldnt be a problem as im gonna drill some holes and it wont get too hot out there.

Nice I have a batch of purple sativas, I saw a pic of the mom, a fucking tree... hopeing my best to keep em compact, I did burn half of the seeds quite a bit (they went straight to 2 branches), and the others that germed faster only a bit, and they are recovering nicely. Have them under cfls and its quite chilly overnight now, but was probably 27 average today.

Also used my pH pen for the first time today. Our tapwater is 9.2 but after adding hydro ferts, its about 6.

Good job getting those to recover well, Yeah i might try and fix my light schedule so that the lights are on during the night 19:00-07:00 so it dont get too cold for them, BTW 9.2 sounds really high? You based in UK? Im currently planning to do a stealth grow but cant find a suitable "grow room"!
