HOW DO I GET MAXIMUM YIELD the fastest

I heard that after the plant gets about 6 " to 12/12 it and it will stay small and produce maximum yield i have 8 plants and i'm basically not wating to wait can i flower after a couple of weeks?

I know where you're coming from, but this game we play is one of patience. Rushing things will most certainly NOT give you maximum yield. Maximum yield comes from good genetics + optimum environment + optimum lighting x patience. If you begin your 12/12 phase when the plant is 6" tall, you'll end up with about 1oz per plant. That's hardly the maximum you could get. A good general time schedule to follow is 30 days for vegging (from seed) followed by the flowering period required for the particular strain you are growing.

If you want a good quantity of bud in the shortest time possible, look into an auto-flowering strain such as lowryder. These strains are unique in that they do not flower based on the light schedule. With auto-flowering strains, the automatically begin flowering when the plant gets to a certain age. Unlike normal strains, they produce the best results with a 20/4 light schedule from the time you plant the seed all the way to harvest. There is no 12/12 flip with these. Depending on which autoflowering strain you choose, you could be harvesting 45-50 days after you put the seed in the dirt.

i rather have the longer one get more from them then the auto one and the plus is u can take clone off the longer one and not the auto save money and takes a bit longer but worth it id say so...

Here is what you will get with little veg time:

The more time you give the more bud you'll get but as you can see these aren't too bad.

Sounds like what your mentioning is basically a sea of green; less yield per plant but more plants

If I were you, I let em get at least a foot then flower them,

what lighting you running?

check the instructions on the pk13/14 i haven't used it but i'm sure it's for later on in the flowering cycle you might end up causing stress by giving it to the plant to early aswell as causing more probs for yourself as with the bio bloom keep feeding them that it's a good product with the pk later on, between them you should be fine 1 other thing try to keep them healthy and green you might want to add a little nitrogen as you go again bio grow will do the job nicely with the bloom i add a mil per liter near enough all the way through unless i think it's not needed but even then i just skip it in a couple of feedings and start adding it again
