Alrighty There you have it, My second time growing cannabis, First time doing 12/12 from seed :) My last grow was all in Grodan Rockwool cubes just stacked on top of each other. I am expecting a lot more from these plants considering it is my second grow and they are in soil and I know what not to do now :D


Whatcha guys think?

Plant 4 what is the ppm or ec? Just curious what schedule its running weekly.

Looks like 1 would make a nice mom for some clones.

I'd clone soon how old are they?

Looks good man, but #3 and 4 look like you ran out of lights to give them?How old are they?I'm about to start a thread with pics of my closet plant in a few minutes here.

Plant 3 and 4 are just bad "phenos" if you will, or bad seeds, It is not the environment otherwise the other 2 would look like that also.

The bubble bucket system is running on nutrifeild Nutes and changed weekly following their feeding schedule.

I have everything in that line except the Health stuff

those your seeds you got going
Yes and no, The frist 4 are a second batch of seeds from a friend so they aren't my bred seeds, Plant 5 is one of my bred seeds and I also have like 3-4 more babies from my bred seeds, that aren't listed here because they are too small and don't know if I want to keep them yet

Looks nice.
Ive done 12/12 from seed twice now. I think it may effect yield but I use it for the height restrictions in my grow room (keeps plants shorter).

The 12/12 plants showed sex in like their 3rd or 4th week of life Really really early, They spat out calyxes at their highest nodes and shot out LONG pistils, like 1/4 inch or longer. Even though they showed sex so early they have not started flowering for a long time, I was expecting them to enter their stretching stages soon after the pistils became apparent but they have not stretched yet....My normal 18/6 to 12/12 plants stretched the next week after pistils came out like they are on the 12/12 plants.

12/12 from seeds seems to be very interesting from a science and learning point of view. Very early pre-flowering and a long pre-flower stage before stretching. Actually is a nice trait in my eyes, it will continue to spit out new growth while in pre-flower for more later buds and bigger leaves to gobble up more light and CO2 for bigger flowers?

Yes. I noticed this to. Mine still had little flowers popping up right till harvest almost.
After growing 12/12 from seed I think this is my preferred method, simply because they DO show sex so early. Less waiting only to find a male and have to start over.

I would say they grow just as fast as they would in normal veg lighting but they show sex very early.

For those of you that were talking and asking about plants 4 and 5, I stated earlier that it was just bad "phenotypes" Well after inspecting one of them it is indeed bad genetics.

Check this out, there are 6 stems coming off a single node and it has 2 formed knuckles at the node instead of one fat one, also take a look at the leaves that grew off the 6 stem node.

Here is a normal node

And here is the deformed 6 stem node

Also the big fan leaves are having trouble developing on plants 4 and 5

So there you have it plants 4 and 5 just bad genes and not my environment
