I'm just starting to build up my own experience with 11/13 from seed. I'm sure it will be a while before I can offer much; other than links to other's experience. There is some decent content to be found online regarding 12/12 from seed, though. If you are interested I would just go down the online research rabbit hole then decide if it's something you want to try.

Just found this... He really nails it on explaining the virtues of 12/12 from seed. Pics included.

Germinated (1) Seedsman' Alaskan Purple Feminized (my first feminized) directly into 1/2 gallon fabric pot with coco/perlite mix; no water pre-soak, no wet paper towels... (another first for me). It took about 3-4 days. I'll either keep her in this 1/2 gal through harvest or up-size once or twice. I'll just see how that goes.
The old way of germination (soak overnight in water then into damp paper-towel method) always worked well for me but since it germinated doing it this way I look forward to trying it again just to save time and hassle on those first steps.
Here is some info on this strain- looks like there is at least a little Sativa in there
Let's call today day #1 from seed for this one.
*Update on Apollo Haze* - They are quickly showing the beloved white hairs and the non-beloved balls. Looks like I may have 5 of 10 being female from quick glance this morning. All look very healthy.

My yeilds were in line with his on my 12/12 girls. Approx 50g/plant average dried in the jar. Saved 6 hours around 3-4 weeks worth. Slimmer overall structure with taller/longer buds. Versus the full 3 week veg then flip which averaged 95g per plant dried in the jar but half the plants.

Damn bro, those look very nice.
Also, thanks for sharing your yields. That is awesome to confirm along with that article. I have to tell you, I am really loving not having to worry about a veg tent. It just frees up time to clean and garden and not really stress as much. LOL, maybe I am just lazy

The best part of 12/12 was the ability to start at any time.
The worst part of it was using smaller pots. It required ALOT more attention to watering/feeding. Found in my setup to reduce nutrients in line with the increase in frequency of feeding due to smaller pot size.
Number 3 smart pots had relatively larger plants than number 2 pots. Didn't get to try a number 5. Curious at what size pot the increase in size of the plant levels out.

Number 3 smart pots might just be a sweet spot depending on how you want to set up and what strain you are growing. I have so much to learn and will keep to .5-1 gal fabric pots until I get the hang trying to keep seedlings through flowering beauties all happy in the same environment.
Here is a pic of the 4 females in 1/2 gal fab and 1 that I'm pretty sure is female in a 1 gal fab. So far so good with 11/13 from seed on these Apollo Haze, with supposed strong genetics (Brother's Grimm)

I removed most of the big fan leaves on (all) the Apollo Haze and LST'ed (2) of them as well. First time trying LST for me.
I may decide to top one or two of them as well but better get on it I am...
These girls have been healthy and kicking ass so I'll take care of them in the hopes they continue to thrive.
