Not really, your plant starts flowering so small to take a cutting from it is going to remove half your plant. I mean sure if you had to do it ok, but why? its 12/12 from seed, not 12/12 from seed to clone to ? At any rate taking a clone is the same at any age of the plant, when you have 3-4 nodes to spare.

i was thinking of trying a clone from the bottom branches of a 12/12fs plant halfway through flower, or as soon as the bottom 4 branches are ready. i usually lollypop and discard them as waste but if the flowering clones i have read so much about work out well its a great way to save a pheno from dying out. any1 done this?

Yeah it will work but they usually take forever and a day to root and kick into veg, but certainly can be done.

thanks for the quick reply bud, i read they take upto 3 weeks to root and turn to veg so i guess timing is key, it would be nice to have 2 from each plant ready as the moms finish

Hi all!! I've been absorbing as much of this thread as quickly as possible. I'm on the verge of my first grow, really excited to get started. I've decided on 12/12 for it's simplicity as well as the option to grow perpetually, and it's just awesome. I'll be using a 4' 2 bulb T5 fixture and I may supplement with cfl's I'll have to see. I may upgrade to hps in the future, but 300 watt cfl's are also an option that I'm looking at. I'll be starting with NL, which is cool because I've never had the chance to smoke good NL.

I'll keep you updated.

Harvested and drying, left them a little fuzzy with sugar leaves, I'll trim them up before curing. 3 1/2 plants 11-13 weeks from seed under 120w and 50w induction bulbs with 2 little CF bulbs thrown in there for the hell of it. This is my second grow. Next one will prob be just two plants, shit gets complicated in the summer when the kids are not in school!

Hi guys this thread is pretty cool and seems like an appropriate place to ask a few questions with regards to my next grow.

1) How do you use canna coco outside of the a hydroponic set up and what nutrients do you use for the 12/12 from seed grow.
2) I will be using a 250watt HPS light and plan on NL and NLx1, I need to get about 1oz from each of my plants to be self sufficient will this light be able to do with with a little practice?
3) How many plants under this size light?

I have grow in soil twice before under 300 watt HPS, the grow was ok but I barely used nutrients just a bit of hesi bloom.

Thanks

Still got about 17g from each plant dry and cured though.

I read up on Coco and it seems the way forward for 12/12, what nutirent regimes do people use as most generic ones supplied are for a normal life cycle.

So I know there are a lot of Coco growers here doing 12 from seed. Are there any cats that watch this thread that use DWC (deep water culture) or any other water culture tek? I personally have only had quality yield success from DWC... let it be noted I have not tried my hand at Coco yet... although i may try in the future.

I would be interested in seeing other 12 from seed DWC's... and for that matter if anyone is interested i would be glad to share my Tek for DWC 12 from seeds... if anyone is interested.

I run a flooded tube setup, kinda nft I guess. And I ran my last round 12/12 from seed. I was happy with the results.
