sog from seed not clone too........I love the CO finished product but I prefer growing from seed.....and seeds will always outyield its clone....so if ya want yield and im talking organic soil cos its all I no, then lots of seedlings with a small veg, 2 weeks max and a good lux of oover 80 per sq ft, small pots 6.5 being ideal imo
you saying a seed plant will out yield a clone plant .. never mate ... im a seed grower but fuck me , a clone plant vegged for 2 weeks would be double the size of a 2 week seedling ....

Your talking time frame to grow up. If the clone were grown to exactly same size as the mother it would yield less. Its in every growbook? :)

also a SOG means no veg time, whole point of a SOG is as many clones as you can in a short space 12/12 from rooted clone ....

i pulled 12oz give or take a few gram in a 0.9 x 0.6 tent man using a sog .... 32 x 2ltr coke bottles , my own organic soil mixture and nothing but oldtimers range nutes (veg nutes for 1st week then flower nutes for next 4 weeks then plain water and molasses till chop 55 - 60 days done under a 400w and a 250w hps aircooled

but then your not doing a SOG , as the 2 weeks you wait to veg your seeds you could be 2 weeks into your SOG flowering ... whole pointy of SOG is quick turn around

Im with you on that. But thats of the lane m8. Seed will still yield more than its clone grown the same height and stature going into 12/12.

Yeh I've always read seeds yield more and all my grows but my last have been from seed and you can defo see the difference but if its a short thing I imagine clones are the way forward seedlings just look far too small.and fragile to flip

yes but the post i refered to when i said it was about SOGs and it said that a Seed SOG with a 2 week veg will out yield a clone SOG .. never .... .

IF you stuck 10 rooted clones and 10 seeds in same tent and vegged for 2 weeks then flipped clones would finish quicker and pull more .... ALSO only some seed strains will let you flip them that earlier alot of seed strains will continue to veg for another 2-3 weeks even on 12/12 if you force flower them that early in there life , i was a big 12/12 from seed grower about 8 years ago so have alot of experiance in that style of growing

in fact i have 5 plants growing 12/12 from seed now LOL ... 4 of them are great but one strain doesnt like the style of growing and is a shitty runt that will prob produce a 8th dried LOL ... the others will make up for her though

Should be alot of difference in the trichs. If its bang on at 8. you should be smoking degraded thc at 10?
Correct at 10 wks it is degrading not doin the normal smoker any favour! Now if yr a care giver I would say yes exo would be a 9.5-10wk strain but the weight is packed on way before the 8wk mark after 8 wks you ll get maybe a few gram extra weight on each plant for takin it 2 extra wks ow and the buzz has degraded lol lovely haha fuck me we sound like americans if you ve got ya shit down exo can be took down at 8wks if say yr ic3 or lemon in cocco you'd be better goin the 10 wks lol the whole point of a sog is no veg and from seed there will always be a 2wk veg then ya gotta wait for it to flower were as from a clone you ve already a mature plant so it will not need to vegg hence why a clone will always be quicker while doin a sog try wot ya preach lads ive done so many a time lol

Can't it make them.Hermie aswell forcing flower on before they show pre flowers?
no mate , not really , i suppose the fem only seeds might as they are more subjective , but reg seeds shouldnt hermie if force flowered , males normally show sex in 2 weeks if 12/12 from seed .... so good for doing breeding projects and have alot of seeds to go thru

Sry man i must have missed it started with sog talk. Yeah i dont believe that either. Im really amazed at some of the guys growing 12/12 from clone in 2l coke bottles hempy style. Seem to hit 1gpw pretty easy
