The 12-12 From Seed Thread

[Don Gin and Ton]

over the years i've lost count of what i've grown. think my top end was about 50 plants and at least 15 strains. it's too much work trying to balance that many feeds tho now i try and keep it to about a half dozen. you know how that goes though....

Damn, I think I'll stick to my 1 strain(4 plants) at a time. Sounds too hectic!

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

can be, and canopy management hahah forget it. think i have about 8-9 diff strains on the go at the moment, pheno hunting. 12 in flower and probably another 15 in veg. keep telling myself i'll cut down when i find the keepers and do trees but never seems to happen.

 

[hsfkush]

With 12/12 from seed, do you transplant or put them in a larger pot due to the short space of time it takes to complete?

Thanks.

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

ah sorry i'm not 12/12 from seed, just like to keep abreast of what folks are up to, my bad.

this is a 12-12fs white widow(?) seed. Got it from a non-reputable seller so it could be anything, though it is definitely leaning sativa.
This pic is a lil bit old, buds are more connected and filled, and dense Its pretty crazy how dense these buds are with less than 150w of cfls

its planted in a 2l hempy, but the bottle is cut in half to reduce height.

shame about the nuts on that cheesecake. I'm undecided myself whether it is the light leak or the genetics. I'm thinking genetics though, prior to shutting my grow down i threw 20 of em into 12/12 from seed and there were a whole bunch of herms from the get go. Looks good though. And hey, even the DOG throws out nanners so could still be a viable one still, time will tell. Got a few thousand of the seeds so gonna plant many of em out at some point anyway and see if there is something worth holding onto and working with

I'm running 9 different strains at the moment. Del, how do you like the Blue Hash, mine took off like a rocket. By far the strongest looking in my room.

its a good one mate......very impressed with it.....pretty quick flowering plant as i remember.....

Here is glimpse into what's going in my 12/12 fs gardens ( Some of the younger plants under the 2 AF600 were actually 12/12 from babies but pretty close to be from seed. The mature Agent Orange were from seed.

Whats coming next... (Dr. Grinspoons, Afghan, bluecityDiesel, Haoma, Grapegod, White widow, Medicine, 3d, Chemo)

I will start using my tent for breeding 12/12 fs style, so I had to move a few plants last night and took a few shots of the AOs in front of my super black background...
View attachment 2402931View attachment 2402930 this next one is actually 2 agent orange in the same container

The chemo with very few seeds from a male Agent Orange (first experience with breeding)


Violator Kush looking very promising...
View attachment 2402927

And just 2 shots of how messy it can get when you are addicted to 12/12 fs, it can get messy with a very akward canopy... but hey, I smoke so many different strains, its so worth it!!! (in here we have violator kush, channel+, God lemon skunk, agent orange and the original UBC Chemo,... the real deal!!

Happy Growing everyone

man dr grinspoon 12/12 from seed might only yield about an 8th. agent oranges look nice man.

 

[del66666]

to name a few either running or run.....white widow...blue widow....ak sour....sour jack...cheese candy.....blue dream....cluster bomb....critical mass.....blue hash....thc bomb.....pineapple skunk.....kiwi skunk.....blue mystic.....sour diesel......madness......industrial plant...tai lemon something or other.......super skunk ....skunk number 1.....there are more but my mind is blank at the mo

just found a load of empty packs to remind me.....the list continues but they didnt all make it through flower....veneno......the church....chronic.....ams.....afghan kush....mk ultra......grapefruit krush.....moby dick.......strawberry blue.....trinity kush......blueberry gum.....og kush.......chemdawg.......

haha I think its probably the only way to grow this plant indoor!! 12/12 fs will take about 4-5months!!! I heard lots of bad things about it so I am excited to watch them (2 of them) grow!! They are showing off their sativa genetic by being 4 times the size as everything else in the garden at the moment, I really dont give a damn about the yield, but I think it will be ok... it will be more than an eight even if the buds are pea size man look at the plants! (do I have to say where they are in the room? same container, 15 gallon smart pot) The way I do 12/12 fs, I get my best yield from sativas. I know this one is a shitty yielding strain but I think it will be better than most indicas, ... only it will take twice the time

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

I tried it in the dam last year and it was nice smoke. not stellar for the hype but definitely good smoke. tbh i was that high anyway it was just mixing in with the other stones. i was just joking bout an 1/8 lol should be a bit more for sure

 

[SmokeYourOwn]

My grow space is less than a square meter. At one point I had 4 or 5 plants crammed in there! Right now there's 3, prob should keep it down to 1 or 2 but...many strains/little time!

Here they are at just about 7 weeks from seed, nice and cozy...

The super haze is 4 1/2' tall, I finally supercropped her top and that made her hit the brakes.


Top cola of the critical kush, hopefully it will fill out nicely...

Really, growing this shit is so easy, especially on 12/12-fs!

 

[tip top toker]

That is a hell of a plant for 12/12 form seed Good work!

hey Mr E once again impressed ok so i'm interested enough to give it a try at least the 12/12 from seed part on a small scale after watching this thread for a few months now
Ive been given some cheese no 1 from kaliman seeds and I think I would like to 12/12 them and possibly introduce the cheese strain with my Petite Blanc auto( I have permission ) stabilse the auto gene and and see what comes out of it
so I have a 3 ft x 3ft breeding area and I am going to run the cheese from seed on a 12/12 use one of my females and a male cheese no 1 cross and take the fertilsed auto back into the veg room
how many females do you think I will need to fill up that area does 15 seem like a sensible number ? Im not sure how big this strain will grow from 12/12 however it may give me an idea of how it will behave as a auto

 

[Endur0xX]

I dont know the strain, if it has a lot of sativas in it, 4-8 plants would be more appropriate for 3x3. If they are pure indicas 15 would be packed but probably ok.

I might chopped down my first petite blanche tonight, the runt, the nicer one has another week to go and they smell fantastik... I am gonna have to try it again without fucking up at the start and with better lighting. The runt was mostly under the HSS so it might not have been a runt under a FERO hehe.

Looks like we both have a 3x3 breeding room for the winter campo!! Next time it will be my turn to send you some of my own

EDIT

If they are reg seeds I guess you could easily start 20 seeds for your 3x3 breeding project ^?

Can anyone tell me what size pot is efficient for 12/12 grow? We talking 10" pot or 12-13" pot? or...larger? Thanks

 

[Endur0xX]

soil = bigger pots = bigger yield. For 12/12 from seed, the diminished return is from around 7 gallons when grown in supersoil in my opinion/experience. I am sure lots of people are pulling similar yield in smaller containers... would be curious to see what people getting 1/4lbs + are using. My best plants are 1/4lbs in a 7gallons and 5.5oz in 10 gallons. Still experimenting though but if you can deal with the humidity or if you are only growing 1-2 plants I would strongly recommend using as big as you can up to 10 gallons.

 

[hyroot]

My first 12/12 from seed. Not sure how far along. Id say 6 weeks of flower. Probably a 9 weeker. Vegged in 12/12 for a month. Unfortunately it sat in a party cup for 2 weeks. Then transplanted into a 3 gal.

My breed. Fruity Pebbles Kush ( Master kush x raspberry cough). Smell like sweet fruit punch. Frostiest strain that Ive ever done. Its 22 inches tall. Single cola with 4 small secondary branches with big buds too.
