The 12-12 From Seed Thread

Hello All! Been a while since I been here. Still got people dogging 12/12 from seed. :bigjoint: I have been growing 12/12 from seed for almost 4 years. I learned it right here. For a perpetual grow it's hard to beat. .......rw
4 years is pretty impressive. I just hit my 1st year and am starting my 4th 12/12 FS grow. Anything worth while you can share about your experiences? What method of growing are you currently doing?

Hey Brother! I'm growing in a peat, coco and perlite mix. I use flora nova nutes with a 400w hps. I like 12/12 fs because it easier to run regular seed and stay on a perpetual. I put 12 plants in 3 x 4 box. In a smaller box I have, 2 1/2 x 3, I start my seeds and grow till sexed with a 6 bulb t-5. I haven't been out of weed for years. I have grown 100's of strains from seeds I have acquired and they mostly grow the same. I'm organic and put what they need, and they grow...lol.........rw

Ounce dry each?

This weeks blog is about a customer that grew his Power Plants from seed to harvest under a 12/12 light system in 3.5 litre pots in just 85 days averaging around 50g harvest per plant.

was germed in the 17.5cm wide 17.5 tall 3.5ltr "final" pots. I am going to use 4ltr pot nxt time. And the tallest reg PP was 1.1m, and the short was 70cm. 30-40% where 1.1m, and the best yielders, at 2.5-2.8zips each. The 3.5ltr pots, where covered, once bean went in with clingfilm, after wetting with Ph6.3 and superthrive starter at 0.2ec, and 10ml in a ltr of rizotonic root stim. The clingflim held in place by a rubber band round the pot lip, and then pulled tight so you can see through the clingfilm. Which then condensates, when the 2.5cm sprout, hit the clingfilm from underneath. You can see it easy. take of film, and straight into main light. 15-22,000 luz and away. This is the way i get my best germ percentages out.

You will all want to know the dry stats; Which is the cream of the data. So high and low ranges will be given, with a pointer to the genetic variance in the strain. negative variance can give low yield. ie, genetic variance is the lowest in PP that i have seen, since i started. That is due to the purity of the line breeding processes. And the quality of the genome set to start with. I only had 4 that where shortish pheno. But still yielded 70% of the mid pheno,s. Four of the batch went upto 1.1m from soil. The majority where around the 90cm height. Stats below;

From my experience. The % vapor/water loss from wet cut flowers is 72%. However, when you dry the flowers, on the plant, before harvest. Ie, one day without feed, so 48hrs without water, and due to the 3.5ltr pots, water holding capacity. That 48hrs dry and another day 24hrs in the dark before harvest. This % decreases from 72% to 68% loss of water. These figures are from my known % loss from wet weights ok. So within 10%

Yield Range, (Dry); Shown as Wet&Dry and are rounded down.
High = 223/71. 40% crop
Low = 91/27 10% crop
Average = 157/50 60% crop
Due to hardness of flowers, i expect the % dry weight will rise ie 65% water loss from flowers. They will now be pressure cured under 1 bar, 14.7psi for 10 days, at RH 62 using the Boveda (NASA) RH cure pack in the pressure vessel. The pressure curing helps greatly (25%) to retain the terpanoid essential oils of the cannabinoid compounds. To make a pressure cure vessel, simply find a motor bike self sealing and seating Tyre Valve. drill 10mm hole in a suitable wide neck vessel (Not Glass) and screw it in and pump up to 1bar. Finding a non glass vessel that can seal a vacuum at 1 bar is the bit that aint easy !......

...... if it wasent of value i wouldn't swear by it either. thanks for looking in guy's.......... been an eyeopener for me the PP 12/12. Automaster

^^^ not tried, but after just looking up, I might have to pick a few of these beans up myself.. sound sweet!! 10% Indica and 90% Sativa and with a Flowering period of 42-45 Days.. hmm

A Jamaican Rastafarian put our hands on this little gem. Perfect for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, Jamaican Dream is a strong plant with Christmas tree-like structure, very easy to grow and bloom very fast (42-45 days), which produces a lot of generous, thick buds with copious amounts of trichomes . Smell of fresh limes and pine, and sweet, elegant and smooth with a tone of coffee. Produces a strong, happy sativa, very active, with a mild effect.

There's the legend himself!!! ROOFWAYNE in the house!!! I run at least a cpl 12/12fs every grow cycle. I run a perpetual grow under 1000w hps and I always throw a cpl 12/12fs in the mix. I've always had good results and some times the strain decides to give me incredible results!!!

let's go.
I start this grow before 18 days. I have 1 fem Cinderella 99 from Female Seeds and 1 fem Jamaican Dream from Eva Seeds.
lights 150 w mh.
pot 8,5 liters.
nutes BioBizz products.
2 x 12" pc fan.
also in my grow room i have another one plant wich will be ready to harvest in 2 -3 weeks. this one is not 12/12. she have 7 weeks in flowering now. was growing on my balcony in the summer with a lot of troubles. wrong ph of water and without any nutes.
