update on my 12/12 from seed :)

i think there on there 5 week now under the light so let me no what u all think ?
Also not realy sure how much longer i have to wait till the buds start to form?

looks like your buds are forming already which leads me to the question of, How much do you know about growing if you cant tell how a bud forms?

yeah your buds are forming already man...doing good keep up the good work!

my first grow mate and im still learning, i just thought it was in early stages of flowering

thanks mate its nice to hear lol, when do you think i should start giving my plants budding nutes :/? because ive only started feeding them biobloom last week

your soil looks pretty rich and probably have plenty of nitrogen in it, if you are going to give it any nutrients give it something with low N and higher P/K and only do it lightly as you don't want to burn them...the tips in a few pics look lighter than the rest of your leaves so you've probably got plenty of nutrients already in the soil. One thing you might consider doing would be to do a flush, let it sit for 3-5 days until its bone dry, then start back in at with a low strength bloom nutrient, but again with soil that rich its probably already got lots of nutrients, so even flushing is not going to get rid of them all. Personally I'd probably just give it straight water at this point until the grow is finished...If you reuse the soil for another grow then you'll have less nutrients in it to start and you can use the bottled fertilizers more, but when you've got small plants like these you have to be careful to not overnute them!

only reason why i was giving them biobloom is cos i want nice big flowers. i dont want tiny buds lol. so what do you reckon i should do mate? cos im still not sure wether to give them budding nutes or what :/ ?

a plant will only use as much as it can consume given the PH of the soil/water, temperature, humidity, etc, etc...if you give it too much the root system gets oversaturated and slows down...its like overeating...you feel like shit afterwards...just with a plant in soil it takes longer for it to stop feeling full...when growing any plant you want to find that balance of light/temp/air/nutrients to get it to its full potential. If you were growing a full sized plant and not a 12/12 from seed dwarf your soil would probably be starting to need some nutrients, but with what you are doing it really doesn't need any more at this point.

oki mate no problem do you think i should not give it any budding nutes and use plain water for the rest of the grow?

Like I said you've probably got plenty of nutrients in the soil already, as long as you keep the PH right around 6.8 she'll suck up all she needs from what you've got already available. Once you are done your grow and cut her down take the root system out and see how large is it compared to the size of your pot. You'll probably notice plenty of loose soil around and not a very large root system compared to how large the pots are. The root system develops as its trying to find water/nutrients, so with plenty of nutrients around it doesn't work as hard. Like I said its a balance of things and depending on your conditions you only do whats needed to keep a healthy plant thriving

thanks for the help mate, my temps are around 85 f. some people say this is too hot but if it is my plants wouldnt be growing as well as they are (touch wood lol). not sure how much bud il get out of each plant thought, im using a 400 watt dual spectrum light

It's so little!!!

How's it going fellow 12/12-er? I'd like to invite you to the 12/12 from seed thread. We currently have a competition going on feel free to enter it!

Have a look through if you want to learn a ton about the art of 12/12 from seed.

thanks mate i hope it does put alot of weight on haha lol, not sure how much longer im gona have to wait :/ getting realy inpatient for this smoke now lol. i like growing from 12/12 but i think after xmas il be growing the normal way simply because i want a bigger yield

my plants are on there 6th week this week and buds are looking nice, im feeding them bio bloom every other watering, does anyone know when i should start giving them budding nutes ? thanks
