Your 100% correct but I think soulkipper was just trying to point out a way of sexing fast for the guy.
And if theirs new growers reading what curious said all he means is your young plants from seed take 3 weeks usually to actually produce hormones for reproduction. But you can go 12/12 from seed. I flip at 3 weeks of breaking ground for fast grows. I don't see having 12/12 in those 3 weeks of essentially veg would be better then 24/0...
Lol.... no.. Seed vs clone to a good grower. Not huge. Cloning largescale. Much faster. So.. You wanna grow 12/12 from seed. Grow. At 12/12.......
You however are wasting time in my opinion. It will take 3 weeks for hormose to produce, in which time they are only getting half the light in "veg"
So.. go 3 weeks, then flip. If you want ok plants. It depends on soooooo many factors. That's why I flip depending on height, maturity, strain, etc.
This is 12/12 from seed. My first grow. Fucking impressive shit. lolllllll
