The 12-12 From Seed Thread

[Serial Violator]

I have also heard if one does trim the fan leaves to do so outside the bud so the wound will heal and not put moisture down in the cola.

On a different subject, has anyone tried using Subcool's super soil mix on the 12/12 plan? If so, what amounts of Super Soil did you use in the pots. I suspect something less than the 1/3 to 1/2 of pot volume due to the shorter number of weeks in the soils.

Attached is a photo of a Cali Connection Mix Pack done on 12/12 as a fill in plant while flowering some others.View attachment 2502348View attachment 2502349

These are 29 days old, iv'e lst'd them and most have taken to it quite well except the Critical mass and one of the dogs

Serial,we started same day,yours look better than mine,just a little but better.lol New Years day I dropped my seed in the water,I think my light has been too close,they not tall enough to suit me. This is my third grow & the worst,I think the first was so easy & came out good that I just kept getting to lax until finally I hit this point. I will get serious again,I don't like this.

They were above ground on the first and aren't very tall most are like little bushes so I raised the light yesterday by about 6" to try and get them to stretch out a little , they were only about 12" from the light. My last grow was the best for in terms of quality so hopefully this'll be the same or better.
I think if every time you try something new, experiment a bit or even new strains that'll help get the enthusiasm back, thats why ive lst'd them this time.

has anyone ran any ken's gdp or other kens gear 12 12

Serial,12" that's close what size light? I'm at 18-20" & been wondering if that was to close.

I use a 600w hps

I'm running 750w at 4" above canopy. Using parabolic shades so light hangs vertical. Got the smaller ones in middle and the ones on outside are actually within the shade. As long as you got good extraction then no heat issues at all. On 600w setting the ones in middle getting 100,000 lux and on outside about 60,000. I think most people that run 1000s in conventional shades can't get that much light to the canopy.
Only my first grow so im no expert but could be something worth looking into. The parabolic shades are only £40!!

^^ id like to see that. I don't believe you can run 750W at 4" and not have bleaching.

Well a few pages back in this thread I put a few pics up of when the light DID bleach my plants. That was on the 1000w super lumens setting at about 6" from canopy. Lux meter was showing readings of 200,000 then!
I have now experimented abit and I have had the 750 no more than 4" away for over a week and no signs of bleaching at all. Remember the bulb hangs vertically so the plants are only 4" from the bottom tip of the bulb

 

[12/12 jack]

Actually mate I think it was you that confirmed it was bleaching!!

 

[thatsmessedup]

^^ lol... good to know. Thanks for sharing.

[thatsmessedup]

^^ sounds great. Cant wait to see the end product.

Lol neither can I mate! I would have taken an oz a plant before grow started.. Some of them look like they got nearly that already! Maybe all my research will pay off. At least that's what I'm hoping

 

[mantiszn]

it's quite refreshing seeing someone doing a bit of research before diving in head first and then asking a million stupid questions like "what is a ph?"
so thank you for being an intelligent human being who hasn't angered me.

nice plant
