I grow 12/12 from seed very successfully, and do it due to height and heat issues. I get 2oz a plant on average now that I have a good strain for it.:joint:

absolutely you can, many many many people do it, you can give it a shot and see if you like the results.. they'll grow and flower.... like woom said, many do it for space reasons, i have a few friends that do the same..

doesnt it take a bit longer going 12/12 all the way? i would think for sure because you are replicating natures light and dark schedule closer than say 18/6 or 24 hours on. So really 12/12 would be a season, i dont know I just think if you are growing indoors you might as well take advantage of the best perk. You can manipulate longer intervals of photosynthesis, faster growth.

I harvest in roughly 63 days seed to finish, so no is the answer!:joint:

I would also like to see pics of 2oz. a plant from 12/12 seed. ha. That might convince me to try it.

I finally got a camera phone with 9 mega pixels blah blah blah , but when I opened the cd rom that comes with it it is only compatible with XP etc not friggin Vista so unfortunately I still cant post pics. I currently have 2 Brainstorm fems that are 6 weeks old from seed on 12/12 and will be huge by the looks of it. IF/When I get camera sorted I will post as soon as!

The pics would be great but are not as important as the schedule and set-up---If I start from seed it takes about 18 weeks to finish-----8weeks veg/2 weeks clone/8weeks flower---so again please take the time to post your method in detail----sounds like allot of members are very interested---thank you for your time.

Whats the 2 weeks of cloning for? why would that have anything to do with the time it takes to grow a plant?

let's see?????---he is growing 2 ounces in twelve weeks under 12/12 from start---it takes me 18 weeks----I could say 16 but that wouldn't be accurate without including the 2 weeks of cloning time---18 weeks. In comparison his method is shaven off 10 weeks and gaining 1 ounce per plant.

this post is about 12/12 from seed not clone but like you say pics would be very nice if its 2 ounces in 60 days or whatever that means it starts to grow a bud as soon as it sprouts i have grown many strains and have yet to see this, a more accurate description of 12/12 from seed is, it will grow for about a month then it will start to flower this will take around 2 months and you will be lucky if you get an oz per plant.

again---my point is about the time it takes him from seed to harvest-compared to the time it takes me from seed to harvest--I've included the 2 weeks clone time because those 2weeks are in my time from seed to harvest-----I don't have a bunch of seeds to go straight from seed to flowering but even if you remove the 2 weeks to make a side by side comparison----12/12 from start -vs- veg under 18 or 24 then go into flowering 12/12 there is still a 8 week dif from his 12/12 from start method compared to say a standard veg/flow cycle------2ounces in 63days is amazing :mrgreen: I'm sure he will be on soon to go into detail about his method.
