The 12-12 From Seed Thread

I buy them in bulk but it’s funny my breeder keeps saying I should just make them. I plant a couple hundred per year or so.
Yeah, I think I'll run a couple cycles of sinsemilla then I'll probably let my entire tent run an open pollination with a select male.

Grow those out for a while, then do it again. That should keep me adequately supplied for.....the rest of my life.

Not saying I still won't buy seeds but at least I won't need to buy seeds :bigjoint:

My first attempt at 12/12 from seed, 3 Bros Grimm C99 and 1 Critical Hog, the reason they're all in the tote is that I thought that they were gonna have to be taken outside. I also had planned on making more beans, as the C99 are regs, but I'm almost positive they're female.
Thinking of using Tiresias Mist to make female pollen, they are about 4 weeks in this photo.image.jpg

Jus a General question for everyone that has done 12/12 from seed, what’s the longest you have let a girl grow from seed. I have what I believe is wedding cake and there is really no info at all online. Today is day 113 and she is still pushing out white hairs. I’ve noticed that the finished bud is full of orange hairs soo I figured I would jus continue to let her ride on for anothe 2 weeks.
What do you guys think?

Revegged Tropical Lassi #1 and #4, Dirty Glue and both phenos of Cowboy Cookies. Found the 3 phenos of Goji x Sunshine Daydream too sharp in flavour.

Absolutely fantastic work!

Hey...how much work have you done crossing bodhi strains together?

Thanks man.

The Goji x Sunshine was from a rouge Sunshine male from a few years ago...no actual chucking or breeding. He hit quite a few female's, Lightsaber from Exotic Genetix, Goji, Holy Grail Kush..

Bodhi thread or Chuckers Paradise thread in seeds and strain review is probably you're best bet for crossing questions.

Hey Number Four, you've got some great looking stuff, just wondering, how long is the average total life span? From sprout to cut under 12/12 from the start?
Cheers mate got some great genetics to play with. Time wise its very much strain dependent, I work in soil and it averages around 12 - 16 weeks from seed to chop.

This thread has just opened up a whole new can of worms lol...:fire:

Any tips on getting them to stay 1 solid cola @numberfour ? Would love to try this on my next grow in about 6 weeks when my Blue Haze gets done. :peace::peace::peace::peace:

That will be mostly dependent on genetics but you certainly can just chop off the side branches too. This works especially well if you want to grow lots of plants. I've found that giving each plant 10" x 10" is damn near perfect (again, somewhat strain dependent).

HDS has it right as its down to genetics, pheno type expressions and luck of the draw. I've more plants that didnt stack than did.

No real tips, all I do is take the large fans off bar the top two or four depending on strain, helps airflow and gets light down. Flowering in small posts too, Adhesive below was in a 16oz party cup, current run in .75ltrs. Side branching has been minimal in the strains I've run, never had to nor would I cut them off as I use this as a micro pheno hunt.

You'll also find some strains love 1212 from seed and some take ages to get going. Found indica dom plants can struggle to get going whereas some hybrids are made for it. Good luck and post your findings.

About to start a grow on the equator. I'm growing sweet skunk, c99, Malawi and panama. All the strains are either pure sativa or sativa dominant. The light is constantly 12/12 all year round so I guess this would be the best thread to post questions.

I'm growing in 10 litre (approx 2.5 gallon) pots, pure coco. Is this sufficient?

Also should I sprout straight in the pots or start in party cups and transplant?

Well being that your growing outdoors I would just start them in their final pots. If it were gonna be indoor if say cups. I've been growing 12/12 from seed here lately, what I've been doing is starting in solo cups, then when the plant shows sex I transplant into their final pot. I do this to try and keep their size down, and it seems to give them a boost during their most important stage. Here's a couple recent pics.
Sorry, it put the pics first, whoops!!
