Why the fuck did you plan on switching back to 18/6?
2 be honest m8 i jst didn't know m8, couple m8 said at the start either do 12/12 or the 18/6, there is 5 plants dont ask why m8 but i done 1 cutting in coco soil and the other 4 in jst that bio nova soil as the coco one has went mental, the 4 others are all bout the same size, really solid heads and healthy crystyl, the coco soil 1 has jst went really tall, bout 3 big heavy heads on it but 1 head and the very top has got burnt, only the very tip, must hav been far to close 2 the light, was thinkin of jst bending them a little, sounds like u defo no a wee bit bout tings buddy, u got any ideas wat should do wit the big coco 1 at the back of the tent?? if not its all good 1st grow bud, smellin real nice jst dont wanna fuck it up, thnx 4 ure time bruv...

If we dont ask we dont learn. You always start opff at either lights on 24 hours a day or on 18 hours off 6 hours its a personal preference. I always start clones under 24 hours light and first week veg at 24 hours on then go to 18 on 6 off then when I have plants to size I want I go 12/12 til harvest. Keep in mind indicas at least double in height and sativas triple or more once in 12/12. The Bubblegum will stay shorter and stocky with coke can sized buds as it grows. I was lucky to get a gifted clone from the original mother plant used to create the original Bubblegum strain about 12 years ago and have kept it going since then as clone only. I only know 2 others who have it still in the world but I have begun starting to create fem seeds from a plant few weeks ago so hopefully it works out correct to make sure it goes forever as it a great plant. Heres a few looks at it at just over 5 weeks in flower 4x4 flood table 8 plants 600 watts.

So you're saying THSeeds and Serious Seeds are the other 2 people that have the original? G'luck on your seeds everything I've read was that the original cut was about as stable as Amy Winehouse (had to go international for the UK peeps). I read an interview with Simon of Serious and he said it took him years to stabilize her, I'm sure THSeeds had the same issue (side note, original cut made it's way to THSeeds via New England and he share the cut with Simon os Serious, THSeeds backcrossed theirs to be more indica, Serious more saliva).
