I don't kno really lol. I have always done 18/6 for veg. Iv been told that there is only so much energy a plant can absorb and that running a light on 24 is just a waste of eleccy.

12/12 from cutting is the most effective use of the bulb if you only have one bulb.

my last run of deep blue was 52 days from cutting and i got near an oz per plant. some in 3.5l and some in 6.5l pots and i mean zero veg time other than when it was in the propagator which you cant even count, this is a great yielder and the dad of the blue pit

and yes they are deficient but that is by choice

12/12 from seed is def not the most effective, for an extra seven days look what Sambo was pullin, for an extra weeks leccy. Bit I certainly won't be runnin 20-4 anytime soon

it's all strain dependant, there is defo a balance to be found but time is usually the thing that matters most. this grow was a 7 day veg 9 week flower. got 1 gram per watt..........all genetics

Looks bang on that mate, what strain was it? Genetics play a big role I'm sure but bit like going to the gym n eating kebabs still gotta have everything else spot on. You must for you of hit the gram per watt.

Half looking forward to taking the small tent down just to sort the fan out. Fucking thing runs louder than the bigger tents fan. Never used to and it you move it you can get it quiet again for couple hours. Gonna take it off the filter and won't let t go back up until its running quiet.

u get that £300 yet mate?...............19/5 is optimal for veg growth/root growth/electrical efficiency 18/6 and 20/4 are pretty close. I find my plants to be healthiest if I give em 19/5 but atm they are getting 19/5 on mh and t5 and 24 on t5 due to clones/ temp issues so low light for a few hours which they seem to like too tf....im thinkn I need an extra clone station away fromn the veg tent

Interesting topic on the veg times. I find it can be different with different strains. Kush strains go to sleep in a veg cycle before lights out I find. I often wonder about veg cycles due to the light period that natural cannabis grows in. I dont think there are many places that get much over 13 (or 14 at a push) hours of sunlight a day.

And I think 12/12 is a very efficient way to grown from seed, probably the most efficient. As for Sambo's 1 week veg, that was with clones, not seed stock as far as I am aware. And I am sure his clones would have been rooted for more than just a week as well:) My most efficient was Deep Blue, 9 weeks from seed germ to chop in 12/12. Really makes me wonder why people grow autos with strains that can do that. Just my 2 bob on the matter.

One must keep your enemies close though!

And your opinion of Mandela is based on your own personal experience with him and the events he was involved in, or what others have written or reported about him? Seems a bit of a scewed opinion, imo, lol.

opinions are subjective by their very nature, to say its skewed is a fair point, if you disagree then you may imply that my position regarding Madiba (as u and lots of others call him) unreasonable by using such a term but you need to provide the counterpoint to my argument that Mandela was a terrorist.......I have no personal experience with him and unless u have him on your contacts list probably nor do you either....or do we all feel we know and love mandela now, such a successful marketing campaign would put a seed bank to shame

mabida did not do so much as martin luther king did for black people but he is being hailed as jesus christ the second. all we have are statistics and since his release from prison violent crime in SA is up quite a bit. not saying he is personally responsible but he has hardly helped the people better themselves has he?

anyway enough talking shit about things that don't matter, on to more important subjects.

winger is gonna be crying like a baby come 6 oclock tonight! COYB!
