The 12-12 From Seed Thread

[B166ER420]

hey im thinking of doing my next couple grows 12/12 from clone dont really mess with seeds anymore. i got 2 1000watts ina 9foot by 11foot room what would be a good number of plants to do?

What size containers are you gonna use?...and How many of them could you fit under those lights?
I would use 3g or smaller containers and fit as many as I could and try to get as many colas as I could.
I recently ran 12 cotton candy clones in solo cups under cfls and got over 3 ounces from the 12 cups
So I would assume a better return with hps and bigger containers...lol.GL

If memory serves me correct people don't hardly get any weight at all with 12x12fc.
I remember on here some years ago,a contest of people going 12x12FS in 16oz cups
some of those shocked me.
You know if you do the clone thing and put it in reveg it should produce then.
I been thinking about it I just cannot figure out how to make it worthwhile.It would beat
having to order seeds,some strains right when I start getting the hang of the strain
I run out of seeds.
Bigger,you were here for the cup contest,was you not?gordon sounds familiar also.
Let me know how that works out,how 'bout?

This pic makes it look big,I like it 'cause it looks oily.It was grown in a spot 30"x30"
Grown a while back.

Yep ,I'm in the solo cup contests....until I winMan I let an outside cotton candy get pollinated by a brickweed skunk...so i now have a shitload of cotton candy x skunk seeds(700 or so).Plenty of seeds for 12/12fs play
The clones were more of a hassle with taking cuttings,domeing them for humidity and waiting for roots.Turn around was a little longer from clone too.I got a little more weight from seed but not much....a couple grams per cup.For me it adds up because I'm doing like 20 cups(seeds/clones) at a time,germed 3weeks apart.

And @gordon21 keep us updated i'm curious about your results with 2 1k watters blasting 12/12fs.I assume you have a veg light of some sort.That's a lotta light for seedlings

 

[gordon21]

yea i was around for some of the solocup grows that stuff was great i was thinking bout doing like 100 solo cups but too much watering for my taste. but yea ima do either 1 g or 3 g pots an try fitting as many as i can maybe 16 per light would work tho? an yea i use 4 ft t5s for vegging. was doing scrog for past year things got changed so im doing my own thing an trying to produce more faster an we all kno thats 12/12 from seed/clone. ima keep the 2 1000s up high tho so they cover more ground do more plants that way.

It is as if it died.
It was at 1 time the most active thread on riu.
Then someone mentioned L/E & everyone left.I am just guessing that's what happened?

Question, if you grow 12/12 from seed, do you still give the plant veg nutrients? or just go straight to flowering nutrients? i'm a newbie so thanks in advance.

 

[B166ER420]

Veg nutes till stretch is over and slowly work to a more flowering favorable npk after stretch.

I use Jobes organic 4-4-4 for veg,then a shot of calmag(epsom salt) and molasses when flowering starts if needed.I usually try to ride it out with plain water feedings from there on out.If yellowing gets out of control during flower i use MG 30-10-10

I usually feed veg nutes till I see pre flowers thats when I hit em with plain water and then start flow nutes.
basically your plant is vegging for like 2 weeks before it finally starts to fully flower!

 

[Devils34]

awesome, thanks!

 

[Hot Diggity Sog]

awesome, thanks!

Yep...expect that from the time the seed sprouts to have around 30 or 35 days before you see the 1st pistols so technically they are vegging until then.

 

[firetruckjacklakai]

What I would do, get some 1--3 gallon grow bags(square ones) and see how many you can fit

ad some strains, grizzly purple kush, Burmese kush, fools gold, and a few others, all showed first pistils at about day 19-21

Growth is finally taking off after their first watering in 2 gallon bags
