The 12-12 From Seed Thread

you'd need to keep 'em small.. very small.. use small pots and maybe even do a bit of lollipoppin' i would think.
maybe get some more light for that space.. 250w would be better or even a 400
I cant afford a new light for now :/ bought this one 2 months ago. I can back it up with with 4-25w CFLs that i use atm for some side lighting.

I've got 3 litter square pots and my bigger plant now is 60 cm tall. Maybe i should do only 6.

Fuck it, I'll go with 12/12 from seed for this grow and hope that it doesn't over grow my PC case, because in which case I'm snookered.
Thanks alot for the info, it was REALLY helpful

so i got a question. how many plants would or should i grow under a 250w hps with a few supplemental cfls? i really wanna try this way of growing it seems easy with less energy use.. the person that gave me the 250w hps said it made his buds on his first grow very airy and fluffy.. i would like to make them as dense as possible but all i have is the 250w(hortilux bulb with lumatex digital ballast with super lumens setting) 2 2700k cfls and 2 3000k cfls... i originally wanted to have only 2 plants at all times have them veg a while then flower and start another 2 plants... etc etc... but this method seems a lot more practical and i assume i could have more plants shorter in height and utilize my space better

Depends on your space as much as the lights. I'm using a 150 in my little box but I think a 250 would do me really well. 6 plants in 1 gal containers. Although I think 1.5g would still fit

Hey! I just wanted to show off my Red Cherry Berry. I harvested and quick dried a small stem this evening and I think she turned out pretty nice! This was grown in DWC under CFL's from start to finish.

So like, have any of you done a 12/12 with a dualarc tube? I found a new place that carries 400w, 600w and 1000w dualarcs for $50. I purchased a 400w to check it out and it is really high quality, thick glass on the bulb etc. real nice. What are you guys using for your 12/12 light, a mixture?

I have an agromax dual arc that I am using on my grow right now, not 12/12 from seed.. BUT my fiancé wanted to plant a seed for fun and I will be putting it in with my flowering girls soon here. Just popped tonight so I will let you know haha

Just planted 3 fem blue cheese,3fem lemon haze,3fem ak48,2 reg dairy queen and 2 s.a.g.e, just waiting for them to pop and they'll all be on 12-12. Are 6L air pots big enough for them to grow from start to finish?????

Should be m8 as long as you keep on top of the feeding

Never used air pots but 6L is a pretty good size pot and should give plenty of yield. I use pots way smaller and got a lil over 21 g from the sage.

As they get bigger they'l need fed more often,as long as they dnt go bone dry like a dy or 2 without a feed 6ltr will be more than ample
