Wow about time I took about 2 weeks to go thru this thread and I'm sold on the 12/12. I've been looking for the most time efficient way of growing. I'm actually in the final weeks of my 4th grow. I tried full term growing with weeks of veg, then I tried autos and realized they use to much energy. So now I think I'm going to give 12/12 a try. Del really sold the idea well. At the beginning of the thread I thought indicas would work really well using this method so i went and pick up some pre 98 beans from Cali connection, OG 18 from reserva, and some lemon skunk from DNA. I think I made some great choices. I'm going to start germin them this weekend and pics will follow. Before I came across this I had already started a DNA cheese that's been in veg for about 2.5 weeks so as soon as I chop my autos I'm flipping the lights 12/12 permanently.

Im around my tenth week from seed,buds are startn to get more aroused you can say but after having 2 incidents from nute burn I think it slowed my flowering stage but even though with the miscues I think plants are doing fine. I'm letting them go until trich's are brown enough to cut down plants. I would say prolly another 3-4 weeks hopefully. I'm a first time grower didn't expect much but actually my expectations have change so has my attitude on the marijuana grow life. I just want to thank Del66666 for providing this thread.

P.S>>>>> I will try to get a better pic of the buds later 2 nite, my brother in law has a better solution for pics my phone takes terrible pics.

I think I gave my plants too much liquid, I was using FF Tiger Bloom I did 1tsp per plant then upt it to like 3 there in 5 gallon pots but idk for some reason they could not take the heat. I give them about a gallon of water every week, should I be doing more or less or what, I actually just stop doing the nute feeds but if you could help me maybe I can give them some more before its time for harvest. All the help would be appreciated, but I did love the FF Ocean Forest soil tat shit it awesome.

I run happy frog in 16oz party cups for about two weeks then into FF OF. People say not to feed sprouts but i dont listen i give then FF Big bloom from about day 2-3 sprout i find it gives more branching i also use Superthrive from day 2-3. So my mix for BB and ST the first two weeks goes 1 TBL of Big bloom on the 2-3rd day then next watering straight water then the next feeding/watering i feed with 1/4 TSP of superthrive. I try to make my last feeding in the party cups to be superthrive then for the first week after they go into FF OF i feed with superthrive and straight water and pick up the big bloom the second week towards the end of the second week i mix up 1 TBL of big bloom and 1TSP of grow big with the 1/4 Superthrive and continue on my feedings every other watering. I build up from there but i've never even taken them to 3 TSP tiger bloom. Oh i wait till they sex to feed TB cuz i've found TB puts them into flowering like a light switch so if its applied to early it cuts down on the stretch in flower. Have yet to burn any plants and i work my nutes up by 1/4 to half of a TSP OR TBL so if its 1tsp then the next week i run 1 1/4 the next week. i dont have a PPM gauge im going to link you up to my buddys thread hes a FF guy to he never goes full strength either but swears by Koolbloom powder to add the last few weeks as the flowering booster instead of trying to put in as much TB as he can. Also why did you put in 3 the FF feeding chart stops at 2:-)

I just woke up hope this makes sense if not im more then willing to go into further detail. I'll pm you that link tell me Slim sent you.

So what week are you how long did you veg do you have a thread or journal and what are you up to in nutrients? Whats going on did you burn or are they burning.

Wow that was a lot bro but great details i give u ur rep++ for tat, anyways im on about week 10 from seed, im doing the 12-12 method. I don't know y I gave them 3 no really it was like like 2 and a half. But they did burned, I flushed them out ASAP and they recovered very nicely, then my stupid ass got greedy and had to do the same as last time because I thought they could handle it this time only 1 plant got seriously nute burned and I had to just pull her out big time. So im almost a full 10 weeks in I think my plants could go another 3-4 weeks idk im a new grower maybe this pic tat im showing can give you a hint on how much longer i have. All i know when the buds start to turn brown they are ready to chop down rite.... I stop doing nutes after week 8, you really can't see the pic all tat good I can provide a better one later 2 nite

What week did they start flowering Del can help you better on the 12/12 im just trying that out myself on week like 3 from seed. But next time you get burn flush like you did and add like 1/4 feed toward the end of flush so your not taking all nutrients away. My buddy said come on over so anything you what to know about FF we might be able to help. Im always on here so either post a pic up on my thread or here if Del dont mind.

Del what do you have in the works as of late buddy?
