Ok the Heri x Cripples are now 17 days from germ they have first leaf and first set of leaves with 3 and one is a four leaf mutation with leaf two and three joined in the middle, clover eh? lol. I have the ppms up to 550 they are three inches tall and the leaves are three inches long. I have been pinching stems daily and they are getting hard. The node stack is short, not even an inch. One of them I thought died because all it grew was two seed leaves, but now two stubs are coming out the top of the tiny shit. If it grows two mains I will let it do it's thing. I am hoping to see sex soon, and I expect a lot of girls even though they are slammed with a load of red and orange from the digilux and the 300k fill lights. Temps never got over 74. I hope to get one male, but if I don't then one gets femmed for the third round.

If anyone has any interest in this strain please let me know I would be more than happy to share everything I am doing. I am not the best communicator so take it in stride I will never put anyone down or criticize. Everything I have learned came from books and the internet, but no hands on with another person and I am getting better as I go because of what I read and see here and my books. The Medical Marijuana bible by George Cervantes is a damn good source to start from. The only thing I did not see in that book was building feeding profiles, just some from nute makers. Anyhow the specifics in this grow should work well with the Herijuana or the Crippleberry. I feed the regular Crippleberry, and the male Heri the same veg food profile. I never got a female out of the Heri, all boys hot summer in germ closet. The crips were 50/50. The seeds were more than reasonable and the Crip grows a fat long main.

Ok here is the crew Heri - Cripple 18 or 19 days from germ and some pineapple treats. You cant see the nodes underneath, but they have a node at the base of stem, one forming in the middle and the one on top. I have been pinching stems to force them to give up more nodes and it works. They are about 3 inches tall except the midget. The pots are 7"x7" so that gives you an idea of how big the leaves are. On two of them the leaves are almost 4" now. The mutant is second one from left bottom row. My little good luck charm, boy is that one fat. They look droopy because I took the pics just before the lights came on. Once lights are on they stand right up. I am now starting to flood them in between food to get the stems fatter and move more water. I do that once a week until they can take more. They will not have any side branches so they mimic a conifer. Water up water down and a lot of it. Once in flower I will take clones because flowered clones make wicked beasts. 550 ppms, 50% humidity H L 35% Temps H 72 L 68 Nitro is 30% Cal mg 30% of food profile. Superthrive, Silica Blast, Floralicious plus, flora blend, Rapid start, Great white in promix, and in food every week, Carboload, Molasses, Flora Micro, Pot of Gold, and Humbolt part A or veg. I think they like it.

My SpacePussy F3s in my buddy's crawl space. We pulled all the males and are left with 47 females ( I think we pulled close to 30 males )

Think 5 plants will fit and grow well in a 2x4 area under 250w of mh for the veg stage and 400w of hps for flowering, all in 2 gallon pots of coco with hesi/canna nutes? Im totally doubling down, I need to buy another 2x4x5 tent and run two identical rooms. 10 at a time!

Howdy y'all!!! I finished most of my first 12/12fs run, and was lucky to average a whopping .5 zip a pot :( I put them each through a transplant when stretch started, supper cropped, lollipopped, you name it. My first run was 2 and 3 gal pots. My current run's in 5 gal and about 50% bigger, even with all the training. My next batch will sprout in 5's with no training. I might lollipop. Any suggestions on training, transplanting, etc? Thanks in advance y'all.

Hello allyou daylight to dawners. I have finally finished reading this fine thread init's entirety. Half wat through I joined to see the pictures and I have somepraise to heap upon some of you people.

del66666 mate yr a ledge (aussie for legend) I bacically have copied what youhave done to get started in this caper.

I was an old school outdoor grower for about 15 years in the tropics(Australia). Of course the strains are much more advanced from my simple dayswhen we gave local names to accidentally bred strains like “RYHO” and “velour”so I really have the plant Biology pretty much dialed and of course, the bugsare crazy when yr out in the weather.

RecentlyI became geographically challenged and have found the need to retreat into thesanctity of an enclosed space to grow.
So Ifound this thread and started a read’n . The knowledge in all of these pages isquite amazing and I would like to thank all of you guys and girls for being socool in contributing in an honest and forthright fashion. To me, it was soinformative I don’t really even have a question…I built a cab used some of myseeds followed del66666 nutes in canna coco and …its been a POP. Itsoutstanding! I am only growing for myself and my lovely lady so we don’t needmuch (4 elbows if Im forced to goshopping) so this method is absolutely spot on.
Thisthread over the last 2 weeks has given myself and my lady so much knowledge andmany laughs. She says the internet is pure evil but you guys and gals are anexception. We laughed ourselves sick when some guy came in an bagged it back onpage ???? and you guys all dealt with him in a funny and non violent way we dugthat.
So to allof you guys cheers Manz del66666 and gawd sooooo many others cool ridebrothers. If I need any knowledge Ill be a knockin on da door.
Rock On 12/12

^^^ Geez people I am sorry that the above is so hard to read and punctuated like an Emu on Crack but I wrote it in a word doc and I guess the pasting doesn't cut it well.

Anyway you get my drift....I hope!

Cheers

I just literally found this thread, and am very interested in the 12/12 process. I'm trying my 1st round of 12/12FS over in the Party Cup Comp thread, so I'll get a good introduction there. But I'm definitely intrigued with it. I like growing out my regular medicinal CBD-rich strains, but that being said, I have a bit of a connoisseurs taste, and like variety. So adding a few 12/12FS could keep me trying different strains while keeping my regular rotation of med-strains going.

I'm watching you ;) You'll love 12fs. More room for a variety of strains, good for breeding, you still get a 3-4 week veg IME, and it's quick! Just do a SOG style with 2' trees. I made the mistake of up-potting and supercropping. Next time I'll just roll all natural and start in big pot.

Im thinking about putting a 2014 blackstar 240 on both sides of my 2x4 with the 400w hps in the middle... led side lighting with that extra UV is sure to pump that resin. Think ill only have the leds on when flowering...

With hash bomb and my fancy expensive ph pen on its way, cant wait to get those seeds in the coco. Got a fem strawberry blue seed, and 2 hawaiian skunk haze. All my hesi nutes came the other day as well. I really hope I can drag at least 6 ounces on my first grow with this setup, ive been reading so much.

Ive pretty much notepadded all the useful things del and others have to say.

I am now seeing the ladies and the gents. Looks like it will be 50/50. Should have started under the 5500k flouros, oh well I am still happy. The small one is fem and two of the largest plants are Fem and they are beasts that love to feed. Food is up to 650ppms and climbing. Feeding every three days now, soon every two days. Peace
