you cant hurry it really, plant need 18+ till sexually mature, until its sexually mature at about 5-7 weeks you really cant do shit. 12/12 is only for promoting flowering within plants that are mature enough to do it

I've 12/12'd from seed before. It just makes a smaller plant. Pros - shorter stature for people with height issues & shorter harvest time. Cons - low yield due to smaller stature.

I only veg for 2 weeks max, the plants will range between 8 - 12 inches, if you have a seedling, clone it, then flower the clone on 12/12 to see what sex she is. then once established sex, clone the seedling again, and just keep cloning off of the mother.

I've gone 12/12 after letting seeds grow for about a week (when they're only about 4-5 inches high) with pretty great results. Because your overall plant size is much smaller, you end up getting much less total buds, but other than that it's just like a mini cannabis plant.

Pros: Faster harvest
shorter more spacious plants

Cons: Substantially less yield
potency lowered
wont grow much branches to take cuttings for clones
