Been busy as fuck the last few weeks and me back is killing me, now my new grow space is all up and running i feel better. kitting out the garage and moving shit about whilst looking after the kids aint easy and apart from some minor tweaking i think im there. 2 600w in here with air cooled hoods with there own exhaust fan theres another exhaust on a thermo speed controller and for now passive intakes, temps are 25 which is good and ive another 600w to add yet but im in the market for new hoods so that can wait a bit. This is my last 12/12 grow, i really like this method but now ive got space im back to vegging and gonna run DWC, autopots and NFT and gonna do some comparison grows between these methods and coco once ive some mothers to take snips. Theres about 15 strains in here and i cant remember half of them but all seem to be doing well. Keep up the good work all you 12/12 growers this is easily one of the best threads on the boards.

Well if you leave this thread I'm following your grows! Those are looking nice! I pulled my pineapple the other day, well the top cola anyway. Rest of her has a couple days yet to finish up and it was getting too heavy to hold up anymore so I said screw it. Smells nice. My Vanilla Kush are starting week 2 of flower today (I count first pistils as day 1) I'm not quite sure as far as nutes go but I'll explain whats working well for me. I'm using fox farm: grow big, big bloom, and tiger bloom. I mix 3 different 1 gallon jugs. 1 with grow big/big bloom. 1 with tiger bloom, and 1 with kanga roots. I feed them water every other day, and switch off between gb/bb and tb. So: water, tb, water, bb/gb, water, tb, water, bb/gb etc. Haven't burned anything so far but I'm also wondering if I can feed more often or if I should. I use kanga according to their schedule so 2nd, 4th and 6th week on all my girls.

Cheers mate. If your girls are doing good and aint lacking in nowt then i would say carry on with your nute schedule, always go with what the plants are telling you, after a while you get used to certain nutes and you know when your gonna over do it.

Hey guys, i have been growing from seed and was wondering a few things on cloning off of a plant that was started from seed into 12/12 of light. Is it harder to get a clone to take roots when takin from a plant in 12/12? Do you put the clone in 18/6 or even 24hrs of light and it stress them any?

Buster, you have to put them into 18/6 or better yet 24/0 to put them back in veg state otherwise they will just continue flowering at present age forward.

Shouldnt stress them at all, should be good to go.

Cheers delboy. See you've been aving fun and games over the the last week or so, hope all that shit's sorted now mate. Still gonna hang around this thread to see what you lot are up too even if i aint got a 12/12 grow on myself. If i have the space in me tent i might just stick the odd bean in there on a 12/12, gonna be using cuts mainly now but got enough beans knocking about so might just as well use em up if i can.:bigjoint:

Should be a little easier for me, gonna do 4 plants per 600w, some in coco others DWC or something else, wont have to feed half by hand which will save me some time. Still ave plenty to do tho and wanna continue with a perpetual grow and pull a plant a week. The tent stays on 12/12 and ill use the cabs for vegging so i can just pull one form the tent and replace from the cab. Thats the plan anyway. Whats your grow situation like? you breeding or 12/12 growing, got much left after the clear out or you gotta start from scratch.

im about to start 12/12 after i chop down my super lemon haze and it will be my first time but my question is after you get the seedling going do you give it the recommended flowering nutes ration right off the bat or what?

No mate, you'll fry it if you do that. I use grow nutes for the first 3 weeks or so and then swap to bloom nutes, i normally carry on with grow nutes for a week after i see pistils then swap over. Dosage depends on the nutes you use if the plant looks hungry up the nute strength, start off on low dosage and up the strength as you go. Its no different to any other way of growing, the plant will tell you if it wants more or its had enough.:lol:

I will let del6666 give his expert 12/12 advice on this, but I will give my .02 also

I grow in soil, I do not feed any nutes first 7 days, I then begin hitting with about 30% veg nutes and build that up to 100% in 2 weeks, I continue this feeding until I see sex and then I drop veg nutes to 70% and add bloom nutes starting at 30% and again raise to 100% over next 2 weeks, continuing veg nutes at 70% and then starting bringing down veg nutes to where I am happy. I always feed at least some light veg nutes until full fledge bloom as gotten underway.
