The 12-12 From Seed Thread

[Xs121]

Here's another strain


This one was flipped at the 5th wk. Didn't trim any side branches because they look healthy and sturdy, maybe in a week ill find out if I'll keep most of them depending on how the flowers form in those branches.

What I observe though, all 4 strains, have the tendency to branch out up to the 5th true node, anything above that are short branches regardless of veg time.

This plant isn't quite 12/12 from seed but it was really small when I put it into 12/12. The soil was too wet and it took a long time for the root to get to the bottom of the big container. Wanted to flower the other plant next to it and decided to see what it could do. Grown under LED's. Guesses how much time is left?

Looks nice! What strain is it? 2 weeks left?

Its "Bruce Banger" by seedsman. Was a freebie. I was worried it was going to be closer to a month so two weeks sounds good.

Haha It's easy for me to say 2 weeks, it's really up to you. I do like to wait until my leaves around the top colas are getting crispy and dry. Really hard to tell with just a pix. I looks like it's still bangin out bud size so don't listen to me.

This thread is so quiet now.

I think part of why this thread died is because so many people are posting plants that are NOT truly 12/12 from seed. 12/12 from seed means 12/12 FROM SEED not with a week or more veg time lol.

I do 12/12 from seed sometimes. Works very well

*Bump*

After days, if not weeks, of contemplation I've decided on going 12/12 from seed through end of flower exclusively in a 5x5 tent.

The idea of just having one grow space to (lovingly) obsess over (as opposed to two or more) won out.

Of course you can yield more by veging in 18/6 etc... but by literally germinating seeds all the way through cutting her down; in just 1 contained space; kept as close to 74 degrees and 40% relative humidity 24/7; makes life just soooo much simpler. I'm not lazy, I enjoy the daily chores of indoor farming, but for me, even though I have plenty more space, I just think 12/12 from seed is the ultimate KISS method to grow all the fun strains out there these days.

Any more thoughts on 12/12 from seed out there?

I totally agree, lol. I get pissed when people post about grows that are not 12/12 from seed in a 12/12 from seed thread.

If plants flowered at exact same time, such as clones, it would be a no brainer, I plan on having mother's now though, I feel clones or more organized in a way. But 12/12 must be great $/grow

Hey Toad...I did a lot of work on 12/12 and kept detailed journals for times just like this!

12/12 From Seed Experiment - 21 Strains

Welcome to my journal! I encourage you to ask questions, provide suggestions, or leave feedback. OVERVIEW: There will be a total of 53 seeds representing 21 different strains. These will be distributed among two different pot sizes. The pots I have chosen to use are called Tree Pots and, after...

Pages 1 thru 33 was the 1st go
Pages 85 thru 98 was another great one

Hey, thanks for posting! ... I can't wait to start going through your journals. Looks you have a wealth of hands on experience with 12/12 from seed.

Yeah...I worked on it for like 18 months. I still think it's great and very practical if you have a space that is always on a 12/12 cycle. But if you don't, I found it to be a bit better to just use 24/0, 20/4, 18/6, whatever...until like day 25 or so. They just grow a bit quicker. The only other thing worth mentioning is that 12/12 from seed carries a little bit of risk. If you fuck up at all - either with nutes or a toxic medium, you run the risk of stunting them and having them flower as babies. It's uncommon for that to happen, but it can happen. Not too long ago, I had a 3 inch tall male in full flower....lol

 

[MedMonkey]

I agree about the risk of stunting them with fuck ups. I've had a couple 3-4 inch males, but the ladies didn't seem to mind them being small lol. Also had a few really short, one bud females. Those are rare, and most end up ok. Quite a few strains I ran 12/12 from seed and fucked up on still grew out to normal size and yeild though, but took much longer to start and finish flowering. I think it depends on when you fuck up just as much as how. If the mistakes are early they tend to still grow out ok but take longer (in my experience anyway). I have a second area for mothers and clones now, and leave most seedlings in there until they get some good roots, but I still throw some in the flowering room on 12/12 from seed sometimes to look for new mothers and fathers because they get done a bit quicker

Agree - that's been my experience as well.
