I don't get it. What's the purpose of 12/12 lighting from the seed? Everything I've ever read recommended anywhere from 20 on and 4 off to 18 on and 6 off which works great with an A/G or can be easily done with a remote timer and a figure eight cord. The bottom line was that they need more light during the seedling and vegetative phases of growth and that we use 12/12 to fool them and force flowering. What did I miss?
you didnt miss anything this is an experiment!!

im excited. You did an amazing job. Can't wait to see more. I'm super curious as to your total time. Hope you saved a little time and effort by not having to switch light cycles on it. I once found out the long way that I had a sativa and 12/12 was actually vegging it still. Best of luck and thank you for sharing!
thanks man!!!

Yeah, crazy huge. You could take cuttings from the plant to get a little more control over the size. But looks awesome.

First time grower here. I have a limited amount of space and figured an aero garden would be nice. Had done some research on SOG growing and due to my space limitations 12/12 from seed seemed the way to go. Bought a 10 seed mix and planted 7 in the aero garden. 5 have sprouted and the other two seem to be duds. I have the lights and the pump on two different cords. Pump stays running and lights are on a timer for 12/12.

Pics I've seen so far on this thread are very nice!! I'm excited to see if my plants make it. I've seen other threads and 12/12 seems perfect for me because of my space limitations and desire for a quick harvest. Can't wait to see the next pics...
