you really only need to run them 18/6. 12/12 once you want to start flowering. Remember that once you switch to 12/12, they will double in size. Meaning, If you put em in flower stage at 12" tall, they will be around 22-24" tall when done.

Roger. I'd run 24/0 if I didn't have a timer too lol.
Just remember the rule of thumb. In your case, if you grow it to 8", it will finish at about 14-16". It's case by case scenario. I have to wait for mine to get to 20" before I switch over. They land at about the 42-44" range for me once done.
I did the subaru thing for a number of years. I've had a 90 loyale, fabbed a lift kit for it and took it out 4x4'n. Had an 88 GL with 2.5 RS drivetrain swap on a lifted chassis, divorced tcase, etc. That 4x4 wagon was bad ass. I also had a 2000 RS that was built with forced air tech twin turbo, eibach coilovers, big brakes, injectors, blah blah blah. I wrecked that hitting a moose at 110mph. Needless to say, that was like hitting a full dumpster. Rolled and flipped that car into submission. I also had a 2006 STi. That thing was simply badass. Sold it because I knew I would go to jail if I continued to drive how I was. I also had a 86-87? BRAT with the jump seats in the back.
So, I've dealt with EA81, EA82, and EJ25 engines. Turbo and non-turbo. Just got done with a friend helping him do the STi swap in his 2000 RS. It's called the RSTi. 2 door RS with STi drivetrain. Also did a 2002 WRX drivetrain swap into a 1994 impreza L. swaps included everything, motor, tranny, rear end, computer, wiring harness, etc.
Ohhhhh memories. I've often thought about building another offroad subaru. Those were a lot of fun.

EJ22? yuck!!! yep my 90 loyale was a 5spd push button, 4hi on the fly. the 88 was 4hi/lo, but I swapped it for the 2.5RS AWD drivetrain and welded the rear differential (couldnt find a locker) this worked WAY better, 165 HP but I had 4.111 final drive gear ratio's instead of 3.9000 (3.7 on turbo models). Which meant it could turn the 235/75R15 tires much better. 165/75R13 was the original tire size, so 85hp and 3.9 simply wasn't worth a crap unless I was in 4low. It was my daily driver so I had to make a drivetrain swap.
Yep, there's a reason I got tired of subarus. Always fixing something. I gave them up and went the chevy truck route. The 04 Chev SS silverado that I had built would smoke STi's.. well, until 120mph when I ran out of gear. They run out of gear at 170. But, it's a great feeling blowing your blowoff valve in a full size v8 at someone driving in a rice burner. The look of "v8 with turbo and blowoff???" hahahah its amazing. Ended up getting rid of that and ran with a procharger. the aurora 5000 turbo setup had too much low end turbo lag. Course, the turbo was meant for a 6.0 diesel, not a 6.0 gas, but the turbo was capable of 50psi of boost. Needless to say, I didn't boost till 4k RPMs, but I would ROAR through all the gears. BWAHHHH BWAHHH BWAHHHH BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. and no, don't let the 50psi mislead you, I would start knocking and pinging real bad after 15psi on 91 pump gas. Bad enough where my gas engine sounded like a diesel, well, sounded more like a thrown rod "clack clack clack" or the old school chevy 6.2/6.5 diesels that always sounded broken right out of the factory.

Them 80's chevies were cheap and easy to build. Not as easy as the 67-72's, but you get the idea. I installed an 8 inch all leaf spring lift on one and it cost the guy like 700 bucks. super cheap. (for alaska)

They look good i.had heat issues with mines i didnt realize temps went up to like 100 ive got them down to 85-86 now and planted a new seedling to see if temps stunned my othrr plants the main issue i have is getting the plants close to my lights i was using a box to prop up my containers but i think that it was blocking my intake so i removed everything and just set them on the floor, i lowered my lights a bit i know i might gwt streched plants but i will fix it i just figure streched plants are better than.no plants i.plan on gettin some of those milk crates to prop my plants up when i can find one.
