The 12-12 From Seed Thread

[hsfkush]

Looking good SV, how long do you plan to let them all go? Assuming the Sativa's will be left for longer(10+?)

 

[Serial Violator]

Thanks mate, i'll give them atleast 2 more weeks and that one plant will be another 6 weeks i think. I also have a white russian that is a week into veg. The 3 i have outside have about 2 weeks left accept 1 which has gone back into veg.

 

[Youknowwhoiam]

Lovely stuff SV, that lot will keep ya going a while.

What's the story on the pests did the little fuckers come back or was it just those few ?

Just to stop any confusion, when I was referring to the 10+ weeks, I meant overall lol.

Also, I'll have a picture update of my NLxChronic freebie, she's super frosty and from the eye, looks like only a week to go, but I'm sure she has some weight to pack on because she's not very full. I'll get the microscope out later also and check the trichs.

Looking at Dels pics again, fucking hell... I want to be that good! lol.

Today The Orange Bud is down (8.5 weeks flower) and weighs fuck knows, or if ya like it weighs Batt Err (scales need a new battery but its those weird flat ones) Hopefully I`ll be able to find one somewhere before its jarred but I can tell you its enough to get me through until the Critical Hog comes down in 2 weeks.

Sorry guys no pictures, 4 houses near where I am got raided today. I'm not taking any chances.

I've seen a Helicopter at night with a Green light on the bottom flying around recently(at night) and I am kind of worrying a little as it stopped over my house for a good 5 minutes the other night. I thought nothing of it that night but now after hearing and seeing these raids take place literally on my doorstep, I'm going to lay low and grow quietly for a while.

 

[zVice]

Here's a pic for you then, pit after a bit of a cure

 

[Serial Violator]

After checking the trichs yesterday for the first time at least 4 had mostly cloudy so they'll be coming down this week at some point. I still have most of the bud from the last grow so i should have about 15 strains injars once they're down

 

[Youknowwhoiam]

Iv`e been trying to get to grips with a ​

digital camera

so here`s a few shots of things, as my scales are screwed I took a pic today of the OBs cola after a 24hr hang for scale.

This is the Critical Hogs top @ 7.5 weeks flower.

You think the low heat from the cfls might haved saved you from the long arm?
Stay safe,have a good day.

Very possible, but the room gets pretty warm regardless of whether the lights are on or not. I have the hot water tank right next to my grow room, so perhaps that masked the heat signature. However, it's still some scary shit, especially when the house opposite you has just had 30+ plants and 5kg of cocaine being escorted out of it right in front of your own eyes.

One of the guys tried to leg it but got caught by the Dogs rofl.

 

[zVice]

30+ plants would need at least 2000+ watts, on a flir it would stick out like a sore thumb if vented incorrectly

that's the kind of haul they're looking for, not a closet grower with a couple of bushes under a few cfls
they wouldn't risk busting in your door only to find nothing based on a tiny heat signature

you should be safe man, just make sure you scrubbing your air and vent back into the house, not straight outside

The air doesn't even leave the grow room very often, I "burp" my closet due to construction restrictions. And given my recent financial restrictions, having an extra 200 watts(an uneducated guess) for ventilation would really dig a hole for me unless I was commercially selling my product(which I do not).

 

[nameno]

Yeah,I don't know what it's like over there
but I'm pulling for ya.Good Luck!

In terms of possession, the police are fairly relaxed. I was caught once smoking a joint in a quiet area of a park with a lake in the middle of it, I wasn't doing any harm and there was no one around so I enjoyed the sunshine and smoked a joint watching nature do it's thing. I was told not to do it in public and keep it to with in my own home and had the rest of the joint confiscated, having to give all my details and then given a lecture as to how bad it is for my health, which was met with a polite "yes sir, absolutely. I'll not do it again sir, my apologies."

No fine or anything.

Also, most cases of 5-8 small plants will land a fine and/or community service and perhaps(if you claim addiction) random drug testing. I know not to automatically assume it's what I'll get if I get caught, there are variables but I don't possess any "dealing equipment" such as scales, baggies and stacks of £20 notes randomly dotted throughout the house.

6 Plants(12/12 from seed) with no dealing equipment makes me feel pretty safe.

I justify a scale by saying I have no way to gauge the success or failure of different methods without weighing. The reason I have all the little ziplock baggies is when I travel I take small amounts, I can't very well carry glass jars around now can I officer?!

 

[Javadog]

I use my scale to measure agar and additive when making petri dishes.

You can tell by the P. cubensis block in my fruiting chamber officer!

 

[zVice]

Here they don't give a shit
Scale + baggies = dealer instantly

which means charges are way more severe

Our kitchen scale does the job, not the most accurate but gives a good enough indication

When leaving the house, usually take it in these

Or just load up the vape pen with oil

I wish it was that easy lol. When being raided, the openly hunt for scales, baggies and money. As far as I know, when they arrest you during a raid, you're always arrested on suspicion of cultivation with intent to supply, usually the intent to supply will get dropped if they don't find scales, cash and baggies, but if they find one of them, they'll push for a prison sentence. Kind of cuntish really, considering most people who grow have scales, just so they can try to better themselves each time.

Anyone care to suggest a seed order from the following list for me? The idea is to have 4 packs of seeds in my seed order, I already have 1 which I've chosen(Sagarmatha - Strawberry D-Lite), but I'm undecided in the other 3 and wish to be persuaded by the lovely people here in the 12/12 from seed thread.

Cali Connection - Pre 98 Bubba BX2(FEM)
DJ Short - Blueberry(REG)
DJ Short - Flo(REG)
DNA Genetics - Exodus Kush(FEM)
DNA Genetics - Chocolope(FEM)
Grandaddy Purple - Grandaddy Purple(REG)
Mr.Nice - Black Widow(REG)
Mr.Nice - Medicine Man(REG)
Mr.Nice - Super Silver Haze(REG)
Mosca Seeds - Cinderella 99 BX-1(REG)
Reserva Privada - Skywalker OG
Reserva Privada - Purple Wreck
Serious Seeds - Bubblegum(REG)
Serious Seed - AK47(REG)
Sweet Seeds - Green Poison(FEM)

The ones which are in italics and underlined are the ones which I've not smoked before and I'm purely going by reputation and smoke reports. I've not grown any of these before either, so any advice would be awesome

Rep will be awarded to the people who convince me to add one to the seed order.
