12/12 from seed cfl ghetto grow, monsters?!

your journal rocks my man!

Nice! Subscribed

NICE! no veg.? can you veg for 2wks then 1212?

It's been a whole month....but i'm back with an update.
Left with 2 eva monsters. I now have one the picture tells it all.
More pics and a proper update of the ONE remaining plant to come

sorry to hear that bro im subbed tho interested in doing a 12/12 some time hope the last plant goes well

Thanks mate this grow really hasn't turned out as planned but i'm gonna mosey along to the bitter end, if only to serve as a "don't do this" journal!
It was meant to be all perfectly controlled and textbook but i've hardly been at home to tend to them in the last month, and gone from thrre plants to one, so it's a bit of an anticlimax/salvaging operation here! Tempted to crack an original skunk seed to add to the mix...growspace is way too empty. I like that 1212 allows us to do that!

wassup cherrybomb........loving your work.....i think i will tag along til the bud porn starts...........

Thanks Del, i'm a big fan of your work, especially your famous bubblebombs if any inspiration for growing 12/12 is needed, one look at any of your pics provide it

Proper update - at the two month mark!
One plant left (eva monster).
Only been officially flowering for a week. The last month has been a busy one for me, been away regularly for days on end, then popping home to quickly water, adjust and rotate....not ideal at all! Especially coming home after a week away and seeing one very female plant sitting next to the monstrosity you see in my previous picture

Miss Monster is now surrounded by four 30w cfls, two red, two blue.
Temps a steady 72-76.
Tower fan blowing her romantically
Nutes - biobizz bloom, only one feed so far.
She's 10.5 inches tall. A bit spindly and more stretch than i'd ideally want, but i still think she's quite pretty
She has gone from having just a few pistils at the nodes, to the pictured amount of bud in just seven days, i see noticable change everytime i look at her hopefully this fast growth will continue (pleasepleaseplease...)



I'm considering germing a Seedsman Original skunk fem seed to join in the 12/12 fun. Maybe also a reg seed (either KC Brains Choice or Cristal Paradise) if i can handle the seemingly inevitable dissapointment of it being yet another male!! Terrible luck with regs here!

how long u had her goin from seed now mate how many weeks pal..

About week 9 mate, give or take a day, the whole thing's been a lot slower than i'd hoped

9 weeks i thought 12/12 from seed was from 10-12 weeks start to finish..must of read it wrong ill ask del

Lol thanks Kevin. It didn't show signs of sex til week 7, on the 12/12 thread a lot of people see it as early as the 3rd or 4th week.

yea mine is there already budding week 5-6 now mate

shes looking good mate im using the bio bizz range how u finding it?

nice to see you back in action jackson

Thanks mate, nice to actually give y'all updates, had an overriding sense of doom for half of this grow!

Back for an update...all has been ok, more than a week on and i'm still seeing growth. But i must say the most noticable thing on this baby is the trichs - wow! If it keeps progressing like this she's gonna be frostier than frosty the snowman!



In related news, this morning i popped a nicely germed Seedsman Original Skunk #1 into soil Miss Monster is not alone any more!

Hi mate, it's all good so far, had two feeds, the first at weaker strength, no problems at all. How are you finding it?

Sending happy green fingered vibes to all who read this thanks for coming by and seeing the adventure!

looking great pal..really nice mate

Cheers Kev mate, so far so good, lol going a bit slower than most 12/12s but she's healthy enough to catch up a bit with all the TLC i'm giving her!
I never have much time to read on here as much these days but gonna have a gander at your thread now

My 12/12 with a ghetto rig of 120w+ CFLs and T5s I got a half oz in 2 months, and it is primo smoke.
