Just curious…2 week veg?

I’m just curious if anyone on here has popped seeds and threw them into flower after just a couple weeks?
I have 13 plants right now that I don’t necessarily want.
2 Kush of some sort (2 weeks old er so)
2 Pineapple Express (2 weeks old er so)
And 9 other Pineapple Express about 4 days old.

I had planned on keeping these and growing them like normal until I got my hands on some better strains.

Anywho… is it worth it after just a couple weeks to flower them?
Any information is appreciated!
Thanks

I haven't tried it but there's a couple threads on it you can check out. This is one of the larger more recent ones. Hope it helps some.

12/12 from start to finish is fine especially if u dont have alot of room and dont want monster plants. They will start flowering on their own when they're mature enough as they've said earlier. U can save u some electricity time and space. Clones flip even faster then seed imo. Some folkes take a clone strait to 12/12 just to determine sex.
Clones are more mature than seeds. They are whatever age of development the plant was you took them from. But it's not uncommon to cut a branch put it in water and see what you have if you cloned during veg

I've done 12/12 from seed with an autoflower, still came out bangin" & the buds were decently tight.

I have also put clones into flower after one or two weeks as well, it just results in a lower yield than when I've waited with a 4 or 6 week veg.


I personally only advise early-flipping if you're trying to bang-out as many grows as you can, as quickly as you can, with no regard for overall yield. Otherwise, patience is a virtue & it will pay off for you if you wait, even just a little bit.

I completely agree.

Because of my interests (pheno/strain hunting for pain relief genetics), I try to blow through as many tables as I can per year. I don't want a lot of pot from each plant. My problem is a surfeit! But if you're not doing some specialized niche thing you're right! Patience pays off.

Just keep in mind some trains take a while to hit maturity. I've ran a few 12/12 that didn't pre flower for six-eight weeks, and some that took half that. I'm running a 12/12 from seed run this time round in a hope to fit two plants in each 90x50 tent as they both fit in my closet. Let's see if they flower early or hold out.

Three Nepalese landrace and a chemdog #4 (pot on the far right is chemdog). The two in the 7" pots are at day 12 and the others day 9.
