Just curious what everyone is doing from seed. 12/12 or 18/6 first. Just a simple poll will be interested to see results
rep to all who vote and post as well
Thanks

that is correctwhen you say 18/6 is the 18 on and 6 off??
I've tried both as well - the 12/12 plants aren't near as big as the 18/6.have tried 12-12 from seed in the past and was not happy with yield so i use 18-6 for veg and 12-12 to flower.
how much did it reduce your yeild? %?I've tried both as well - the 12/12 plants aren't near as big as the 18/6.
After 12 months she will loose alot of her juice tho, you wanna start flower by the 9th month.typically i start off with 2weeks of 24 hours of constant light, from germination on. personally i think this keeps the soil warm and keeps moisture buildup from happenening and mold setting in early when the seedling is most vulnerable
after that its 18/6 untill im done vegging. you can veg a plant on this cycle for 12months if you want, as long as its not an auto-flowering strain
once ive vegged it out i switch to 12/12 untill trichromes turn milky
once ive scoped the trichromes i kick it back to 8/16
and when 80% of the trichromes have turned amber i give it 48 hours of uninterrupted darkness and then kill the bitch.
ive gotten some killer beer can sized buds from bagseed using this lighting schedule
