I started this journal a little late so ill get you up to speed.
(Please keep in mind this is my first post and my setup it quit ghetto and temporary)
Lights:8cfls 6 23w 2700k 1 23w 6500k and 1 23w UVB 6500k (UVB to pump out that resin)
Soil: organic soil with compost and those little white things to retain moisture I forget what they are called
Strain: unknow bag seed one seems to be sative dom hybrid and the Rest indica Dom.
I started six bag seeds from good quality weed on about march 25th I had used the paper towel method for germination and put them on top of my snakes tank under a blanket to block out light.
All six germinated within two days and I promptly put them right into 12/12.
Between April 15-19 5 showed sex two males three females one is still unknow but its showing tricromes already (it could be behind due to being topped, I have been lst'ing the three females cause my grow space is small (until I finish a new cab) there was an issue where the plants were Burnt from the lights but they have grown out of it. So far budding has been picking fast and the plants still seem happy besides red stems but I'm not to worried about that for now.
I just took pictures but I'm not sure how to add them being I'm on a iPhone.

thank you very much. this is my first try at 12/12 but so far it seems to be going better than i had expected. it seems really ideal for micro/pc growers. i know my yields will be low so im more just looking for experience and quality over quantity. im still trying to decide if i wanna make my new cab a 12/12 set up and go for SOG or veg them since i will have a more room and much better conditions. ill try to get pics and info up atleast once a week but will probably update more due to my addiction to watch my plants haha.

Just wanted to add some info on number 4 the one in the red cup, it has grown mutant leaves since the beginning so I figured I'd try a few things on it so I topped it very young which slowed growth alot but has made the node space much better I also did some Bonsai on the roots to try and finish it a red cup I may move to a bigger pot though as of now it's growing well still a little behind but fully recovered now it still hasn't shown sex but like I said there are already lots of trics on the leaves and I know they aren't just hairs cause I used a 20xmagnifying glass

Plant number 4(mutant solo cup plant) finally showed me some hairs today I had a strong felling it would be a female cause of all those trics haha
