12/12 From Seed

So I started a seed on 12/12 from breaking ground. Right at 4 weeks since breaking ground. What ya think?? It's just a CFL with something like 120 actual watts.

Very nice little plant.. cute!!

I think you should of been vegging the last 4 weeks so your plant is larger and be switching to flower about now to 6 weeks.

In saying that its a nice healthy lookin plant.

A friend of mine did a similar thing. They vegged for only a few weeks, then flowered and had a dramatically low yield.

When the plant is still lateral branching it is not sexually mature. Once there is only one branch to each node, the plant will produce a LOT more.

The plant does look very happy, but you might not be after the time, money, and effort it takes to grow decent bud.

Wasn't he? Vegging under 12/12 is still vegging.

Lol. I think maybe I'm not being understood. I'm not looking for massive yields. This is my second grow. Just harvested my first 2 weeks ago. Just experimenting a bit. I've topped this one twice so far. I did 12/12 from seed due to my first finishing flower when this one came up. I only grow for personal use. I only have a small space to grow in so I can't separate veg from flowering.

But yet you are.

But I'm not. Just so happens that 2 weeks ago I harvested. I was then out of town for a week. Not having anyone to water I opted to leave it on 12/12. Once I got back home I gave a nice feeding and she has shown her sex. I've also decided to just leave her on 12/12 to see what results I do end up with. I have also started another 2 seeds.

Your missing the point.

As dtl420 pointed out. A plant has to be mature to start flowering. So you did veg,just on the flowering light cycle. Then the plant became mature and started flowering, on the same cycle.

You vegged at 12/12 and then you flowered at 12/12.

Maybe next time purchase an Auto seed as they sound like they will fit your needs better and you may find you will get a better yield than running a photo at 12/12.

You should find a better way to run your cords man those extension cords look over loaded and like a fire hazard big time
