The 12-12 From Seed Thread

See I sell these things,I am not buying into seed companies retoric,they dont breed autos for your ease of use,like with feminized seeds its about making you have to go back for more seeds,no males = no stable breeding,autos = no clones, and actually cost more to grow 9-11 weeks at 18/6 than 13 weeks at 12/12,so its all about 12/12 really,also autos all yeild bud that is like crap northern lights,I have tried many of these new super autos and they arent much better than the normal ones,onyx/himilayan blue diesel etc, only a few autos are much cop,the chronic ryder can yeild 2.5 oz max,still I could get a clone of chronic and get that anyway so I dont see the point in autos,other than making "you" have less power/control over what you do,its all about making you spend more on seeds,every 8-10 weeks you have to spend £30-50 on seed,its b/s,very clever on the seed breeders side business wise,beyond that nothing more than a fad,


Well, I, for one, am using silly autoflowers because I don't know what the F I'm doing and figure there is less to screw up! However, I'm trying 12/12 also and will likely just use 12/12 if I can grow anything successfully.

Off topic, but why do people opt for the non-digital Volcano? Is there an advantage to it or a disadvantage to the digital? When I actually have something to put in it I'm going to buy one or the other.

The sativa dom can get 4' tall, I wasn't topping or anything, I end up supercropping a few, because they were growing into light...rw

No need to get butt hurt, I was pointing out the obvious. Saying trust me, I sell these, is not what makes someone believe what you have to say...

Dank, don't take it personal. There are people who try and sell their stuff on here. I trust your opinion, don't like vapes anyway, rather have the smoke. Of course that,s my opinion. Smoke one brother...rw

with pots I start with a 7 x 7 like del then control size until sex is shown,then I put them in their final pot, varies on size dependent on the strain,the chemmy jones I did I got 21gs of a plant in a 1.5 liter yes liter pot,under a 125 cfl,now I would love to see some one do better than that with that light n pot size :P

my avatar is that plant in question

Yeah that is why you will find people like Del and myself start in a small pot,it keeps the plant from going mad,then when you re pot it,with in a few weeks its almost at its full size,then its just about bending it over if you grow like me,or just letting it do its thing as Del likes to do,neither way is right or wrong,its all about what you need to do to get the best out of your situation :)

That's cool man,still,its all about seeing what suites you,I don't want you to think I am saying you have to do it that way,there is many right ways of doing the same thing,so just play about and tweak it to your needs/environment,its the only way to really learn in my opinion :)

yeah, i let it go cuz its less work for me to do. plus 12/12 from seed will keep me a good supply how many could i do under a 400w? how much could i get per plant?

To be fair both of those questions are strain dependent,and other factors,sea of green?screen of green?,standard grow,abit of LST,,Im thinking 4 nice size plants,though if any one wants to correct me on that that is cool :)
