I thought i should mention the new veg light schedule im using.
I heard about it on a Medical Marijuana radio show 2 weeks ago. Its called the 12-1 light schedule and it goes like this.
1) 12 hrs on
2) 5.5 hrs off
3) 1 hr on
4) 5.5 hrs off

I then went and read a bunch of journals where people have been using it with great results. I switched these plants to the 12-1 schedule about 6 days ago and they seem pretty happy now.
Anyone ever tried this?​

I heard about this too, but never tried it. Aside from using less power what are the advantages that were stated for 12-1 vs 18-6?

Other then the electricity costs of 13 hrs of light VS 18 hrs of light they mentioned that having the power consumption interrupted helps to confuse Cops who might be looking at high electic use. They also said it makes the palnt healthier but I dont know about that.

Yep, looks good! How's the 12/1 veg schedule working out? And how many days from breaking ground now?
Its been about 39 days for the two seeds that i germed after the first two. I lost track of when i germmed the first two but it was about 10 days before the others.

12/1 seems to be working just fine. The plants look really healthy and they are staying in veg.

I have pistils on the first two plants and after the other two show them it will be close to flower time. I have heard that Bubba needs some extra veg time for it to yeild a decent amount. I willl probably let them get close to 30 inches tall before i switch.

I now have them vegging under 1-400 MH and 1- 400 HPS for extra light and they are all in 5 gal lowes buckets and will finish in them.

Looks like Bubba Kush is available again at Dr. Greenthumb. "Tastiest smoke on earth"? Gruber, can you confirm?
Thats great news...been waiting for that to happen. I just took a look at the Greenthumb site and it looks like you are correct...I may shoot Doc an email and ask about it.
