Update on the good yielders:

Green Love Potion - 14 Grams
Skunk #1 - 11.3 Grams and 15.4 Grams
Northern Lights Special - 18.1 Grams (Screwed up and did not get the other weighed...looked comparable so assume it was close)
Critical Jack Herer - 14.5 Grams and 19.9 Grams
Chronic Thunder - 15.2 Grams and 20.6 Grams

I have found the Green Love Potion to be quite lovely. I'm kind of a light-weight and can easily over do it. The 1st time I did the Critical Jack I really loved it. The 2nd time I smoked too much and it was way too strong for me. I'll be trying the Skunk #1 and Northern Lights within the next few days.

My blind judges have reported on the Red Dragon and Northern Lights but it's a head scratcher. One person loved the NL but another said it didn't even get him high...very odd. Both are daily smokers.

I'm glad you have this journal because I can go back and research when your girls In 12/12 start to bud. I started my 12/12 from seed side grow on 12/19/14 and they are stretching but no budding yet.

Have you started your next round yet?

When I did my Platinum Delights that I have going now it took her about 4-5 weeks to show flowers. It's so hard to flower a immature plant it has to grow some some nodes before it'll flower. Give it time it'll show in the next couple weeks

It's funny because initially I thought when you do 12/12 from seed the day they are in flower is when you start your initial flower cycle. I didn't really realize it's going to take 20-30 days before budding..

If the plant was way more mature then you could go with that cus a bigger more mature plant will flower faster than a 6in plant. If a seedling flowered immediately you prolly would get like a gram cola lol. But yea it's has to get big enough before it will flower that's why everyone says there like a veg cycle when doing 12/12 from seed before it flowers so for some people with height restrictions it's a perfect way to grow just have to find the right strain to do it with and that's what he's trying to accomplish here

Yeah, exactly...a seedling is not sexually mature so it's just not going to jump into flower in 10-15 days like a mature plant will. The 12/12 cycle will build up the level of hormones such that when it is sexually mature, it should kick right in. 30 to 40 days from starting the seed is probably about right.

I guess when I do my sog seeds from 12/12 I'll do them in solo cups under my t5's for the first 20-30 days and transfer them in 2l hempy under under 2x600!s so that I won't waste valuable time. I was thinking while I have my normal flowering plants ending in the next 30 days under my 2x600's to start the 12/12 from seeds under my 4ft t5 8 lamp. Does that make since to yall?

I checked on the girls tonight and some are showing signs of budding so I'm going to feed them next time with Canna boost additive. I need to transfer the to 2l hempy has I see the roots coming up from the top the solo cups. Don't mind the leaning plants has I had them angled against my other pots that's being chopped down tomorrow.

Nice! Yours have pretty much the same appearance and growth pattern that mine did.

Hot diggity I transferred some of those girls from the cups to 2l hempy. I filled the bottom of the 2l perlite and vermiculite up til the side holes. Then I put coco based plant in the 2l and fill the rest up with coco. Hmmmm got me thinking of running 120 of these under 2x600's.

Looking great! What size space would you potentially do that in...a 4'x8'?

Yes 4x8space, I have a 3x6 tray that I can fit 120 2l's inside it. It's going to be a bitch but I've done it before; I will hand feed them all. The drain to waste set up drains at the end of the tray and runs off into a bucket. I've never done 12/12 from seed but I've done this setup with rooted clones.

What is the average height right now? The seem to be shorter and did not stretch as much as mine and I'm wondering if keeping them in the small cup this long might have reduced the stretch?
