just wondering.
if its 2 and a half weeks veg growth with 12/12
then could you cut that down to say a week and a half or so with 18/6 ? or is the veg growth rate the same regardless of light schedule?
just curious.
I'm still fairly new at this so take it for what it is, and that is my opinion. I think we look at it a little wrong. I think that we feel when we put a plant into 12/12 that we are forcing it and manipulating it into flower. I thing it's the other way around. I think that when we put a plant into 18/6 we are forcing it to stay in veg and keeping it from flower. While we can force a plant to continue vegging indoors, we can not force it to flower sooner than what it's genetics tell it too. We all get pubies at different times. I think if you force veg plants then counting from 12/12 is sensible and fairly accurate, but if you do 12/12 from seed, then the clock starts when the first pistil shows.

So I'll ask the vets, does that make sense to you?

I veg with cfl's, I flower with HPS/MH combo (so a hellova lot more light to start with), the 12/12 period for veg that I have seen is effective as 18/6 is as far as growth is concerned. A plant is not growing 100% of the day. There are different cycles to go through, and really MJ only needs 7 hours of direct sunlight from what I have read into. 18/6 growth is purely to prevent the plant from going through is natural cycle of growth and flower, imo.

that makes perfect sense cheers.
didnt think of it that way.

i just wish i had more space so i could try out different things. cant wait to move out of a flat and get a house and have another tent and try 12/12 to compare.
with a decent indica what do you think the weights are from 12/12 from seed or rooted clone? if i can pull over an ounce then i might just go for it. save me on electric to lol i always aim for a pound per 1.2m tent (1 600) so if i can do that with 16 plants from 12/12 ill significantly boost my yearly harvest.

here are some pics of my girls.
A few of them are really tall.
I guess they might start to flower then stop and flower again in the fall?

I have never seen leaves this big....this is Bubba Kush


you can see the Afgoo's sunburn. Others have it too on lover leaves. I had used mylar in the shed with no roof. Basically baked them alive!!





I couldnt get a good angle in my 8x8 shed to show the height of these giants. I am 6'1' and with the pot Afgoo is my height and the Bubba and Purple Dawg are right behind her.

Thanx Indecline
It makes my hand look small haha and my hand is at least normal size maybe a lil big. The lower leaves were all dieing from lack of light indoors. That has stopped now save for the ones that were already sick and the burned ones.
I dont know how tall they are gonna get, but I figure 10 ft or so for the Afgoo maybe?

The matrix is intact, you're just stoned on some heavy duty Agent Smith kush I think. ;-)

Reminds me of a night a couple mates of mine took ghb. They kept saying the same shit over and over:

"Dude its like my memory keeps resetting and I don't know what we were just saying"
"I know its too weird"
3 seconds of silence
"What were we just saying"
"I don't know... its like my memory keeps resetting and I can't remember what we were saying"

It was like that for about 6 hours.
