Ok, a phenotype is talking about genetics. Just like humans you can have kids from the same parents but they will all come out a little different. Thats like phenotypes. You will have the same strain, but that same strain will produce different variations, some more desirable then others. Thats what breeders do. Breed a lot of a specific plants (plans meaning a mother and father plant) then they take the best phenotypes they find from the batch of new plants made from the mom being pollinated from the father.
A good example is say a couple has 2 kids. One kid is a major league baseball player and the other is a couch potatoe. If your creating good genetics your going to want to pick the best one. Same with breeding plants. You want the major league baseball player of your phenotypes.
Does that make sense to you? Hopefully I explained it in a way you could understand.
My blog hasn't gotten this far into it yet, its still new, but eventually I will be talking about this stuff. So if you like you can check out my blog and keep up with it. I will have lots of usefull info soon along with marijuana news recipes and other shit. http://Cannabis-Country.blogspot.com

I'm now inclined to agree w/you. I have 2 plants half the size of their sisters' obviously grown under identical circumstances. Those 2 are getting pulled from 12 for more veg time, I should not have started with the weakest looking seeds for these type of grows. Thankfully I have plenty of cloning material from the stronger ladies.
cheers!

Hi. congs for your grows. I have a question: Is it able control the plants height (sog, lst, etc) with this light schedule and the way the plan grows?

thats a tricky question . all i can tells you from my experience is that the pot size really made a difference but the strain type also plays a big part. I grew an exodus cheese backcross in a one gallon smartpot that only got to be about 16 inches tall. I also have a pineapple chunk in a one gallon smart pot that is at least 36 inches tall. same enviorment the entire grow, same nutes, same lights.. so that tells me its strain based. If you have a dominant sativa i would recommed a small pot to control its height. sativas tend to grow really tall, indicas shorter and stockier. at least thats what has happened for me. good luck and welcome to riu. Nice first post mr.froggy. ribbit

Hey everyone taught I might post some pics as I have a quick question to ask. I have 6 sharksbreath from DNA which will be 3 weeks old tomorrow I have them under a 400w hps all the way through and feeding them currently bio Grow and bio heaven 1ml of each per 100ml of 6.2ph water...3 of them I had to remove there first set of true leaves 3 days ago as they turned yellow (not the cotyledons but the leaves that appear after)..Now I have 2 of the plants that are a light green/yellow in colour and are far smaller than the rest(as you can see below) is it just pheno's acting up or is it something else(or am I just freaking out for no reason)..Cheers for the help in advance, if it wasn't for this thread I would not being growing 12/12 from seed some excellent info on here...Oh and finally before I go when will I use bloom nutes I'm pressuming its when the flowers first appear but will I hold off for a week or so when this happens befoe introducing the bloom nutes..

Yellowing of leaves and stunted growth usually indicate N deficiency.

hello mate, im going with pheno.........ive had some that yellowed, dwarfed.......a few have just bit the dust no matter what i did.....id say hold your bloom til you get a week or so into flowering...i think with bio you combine bloom and veg nutes when plants are in flower
