12/12 from seed

CFL GROW 12/12 from seed

Hello everyone, these my current grow, 12/12 from seed i started right before my last harvest. All plants are random bag seeds from some decent smoke, planted on new years eve.

Lights --> 1x 125w 2700k, 1x 68w 2700k, 2x 30w 2700k and 4x 23w 5500k = 345w
Medium --> JustRight Xtra coco coir mix
Nuts --> Botanicare Organics (Mainly just bloom, liquid karma and Sweet)
PH --> always between 5.2-6.2 i like to vary between every feed

Transplanting into 2-3 gal pots as soon as they are all showing sex

The 2 middle plants have already shown sex as females, the rest have no signs.

If you look close you can see the hairs in pic 3.


125w is not in pics, putting up after all sexed

Posting for my own amusement and for some feedback, be nice this is only my second grow.

I have a 12/12 from seed going as well.
Good luck man

Looking good man, but you can get better use of the SIDES of your CFL's than the ENDS.
They could be a little closer too, just be careful you don't forget to check them frequently.
I have had my plants grow into the bulb or reflector in one on period.

Agree with Bakatare666, in addition, you have a bit of yellowing and the leaves are looking a little drooped. Careful not to starve or overfeed your little girls! If your soil didn't have nutes (like most coco) than you'll need to nutes with minerals.

subscribed this sounds interesting. I'm running 1x200 watt day spectrum and 1x300 watt dual spectrum, also a 125 watt for clones. all in roots organic soilless coco mixture. this sounds interesting i might have to move a couple into my other space and flower a few smaller ones.

The coco mix has some stuff in it. Subcultures, worm castings, silica stone, potash and bone char. I think i may slightly over feed. Seems for the day i feed they droop a lil but its normally fine by the next mourning.

Thanks, i will look for your thread sounds like something id like to read.

I grew 1 plant 12/12 from seed. It was started 1 month after my others. When my others finished, my 12/12 grow was already taller. So be prepared for support. I got about 2 oz from said 12/12 seed.

lookin good there man I have 1 girl that is 12/12 from seed right now, journal entries here https://www.rollitup.org/blogs/499261-greenappleman420.html if u get a chance. GL

Quick question guys...Do you guys run into plants going herm from the stress of 12/12 from seed or is that just a myth? I'm thinking of throwing a few beans in 2 weeks before I flip my other plants and letting them go with the rest....i wont do that if i risk letting a herm ruin my whole crop tho so any advice is appreciated.....happy growing
