Hi folks. This was an interesting thread on the chronic forum.
HomeGrown420 - Opinions on this new 'Dutch' method?
Anyone here doing this? I think I want to go this route. There are a few good things about this method.
1. Lights are on only 12/12, This will mean a lower electric bill.
2. No two rooms, since you are always in flower mode. Nice to have to only worry about 1 schedule--just set the timer and forget.
3. Always add extra seedlings whenever you want. Each plant can grow as slow or as fast as you want. Put some new seedlings in at any time and start them off, it has nothing to do with other plants and when they are ready to harvest.
4. Supposedly, these guys are getting 70-80 percent females.
5. Nutes only for flower, no more worrying about veg nutes.
6. Small pots, so you can have more plants at once. You don't get as much bud as with a normal beg plant, but you can grow more plants at once.
7. Not much side growth, so the top colas get all the energy and concentration.
Anyway, please read the thread. Some very ineteresting stuff there.
