ScrOG 12/12 from seed

I'd like to start by inviting anybody who grows or has tried growing with a 12/12 light regiment from seed while using a screen of green method of training to please take part in this discussion.

You're advice/experiences/thoughts are all welcome!

I'm looking to grow 1lb as quickly as possible using a closet sized space. I won't be attempting to take any clones this is simply for "a get in and get out quick" style of operation.


Lights Mixed spectrum from a 650w HPS and a 400w Mh (cooled and vented using cool tubes and a 400 cfm inline fan)

MediumFox Farm Ocean Forest

ScreenI'll be using a half stadium style vertical screen to maximize square footage of the canopy.

Strains5 Medical Seeds fem Sour Diesel, 5 Dutch Passion fem Purple#1

NutrientsOnly Ph adjustments to filtered water.

Again, my objective is to use these two methods to grow 1 lb as quickly as possible, obviously more would be awesome too though!


I just germinated the lovely ladies tonight so pictures will be coming throughout the process.

Enjoy!

I don't think that ScrOG and 12/12 from seed are compatable growing methods and to get a pound of buds growing 12/12 from seed will require a LOT more seeds than the 10 you are using.

I'm keeping the grow contained to a closet spaced area and 10 is the number I'm going with. I have a few backups that I germed as well in case I run into any issues with sex. I believe with this set up its possible to get close to a .75gram/watt ratio and i'll be using a max of 600 so my goal is 1lb.

Who knows, I could be wrong. It wouldn't be the first time!... But the third

There's a guy from Holland who calls himself SpeeCees who's a big proponent of of 12/12 from seed but he uses a straight SOG in bottom fed containers about the size of a two liter bottle. He claims to get well over a gram a watt running 600 watts per meter squared. Of course he runs a seed company,so he doesn't have to worry about that end.

His advice to me was to find a stable strain,pollinate a few buds in the first grow,and use those seeds for the next grows. He suggested strains with a maturation time of around 60 days.

He says once you get his system down,using two flowering chambers,one for the seedlings in the first few weeks and the 600 watt one meter chamber for maturation,you can start pulling in 5-7 harvests a year by rotating the starting times. He says you need to only pollinate every couple of years to provide enough seed for his system.

His premise is that 85% of your bud weight comes from the main cola,and you should concentrate on that. He's been growing indoors for 30 plus years,so he knows that end growing better than I do.

He used to hang out over at 420 Mag,and had a special thread on the method if you're interested.

#1comments , iv used this method with v good, results

I would thing 12/12, from seed, would be small enough to not need a screen.

I was just saying 12/12 from seed would be so small, there'd be no need.

I happen to use scrog myself.
