I keep my moms under 18 hr lighting and feed them GH Nutes at the dose listed on the bottle for Veg. Nothing hard about it.

hey jesus why do you keep yours at 12 and 12, i would think basic knowledge tells me 18-6 or 20-4. I guess i could be wrong though.
Does anyone have any good instructional growing videos, not mr green, or the urban grower. ive seen them something most have not a good instructional vid would be nice.

HAHAHA. funny.
SO its just the basic of vegging a plant but never allowing yourself to put it through to 12-12.
But in some cases it will "auto" flower where is shows sign, wont it hurt the plant to keep it in veg. what should i do if this occurs just flower it or is it fine to keep in veg state ?

I get those small preflowers on my moms never seems to hurt em. After a few months I replace the mom with one of her clones. You got the concept of it, just like vegging a plant without switching to 12/12 ever.

yeah it sucks when that happens makes it harder to root the clones and they don't seem to grow as fast either but if the mother is a keeper there's no need to flower it and start all over.

Seems basic in words, lets see in practice haha. Ive been thinking lately to do instructional videos. so people like myself will know how to do things. well can learn to do things.
