What's the minimum amount of dirt you'd flower a seedling in? 1 gal, 2 gal, 3 gal? I was looking at the 7"x7" that hold 1.5 gallons...

Basically:
7"x7"

Or these 6"x6"x16" that also hold 1.6 gallons:

the bigger the container the bigger the yield, do you really want to use 1.5 gallons? I know some people can do it but in my opinion it requires more skill to get good yield in smaller containers

I use 1.7 gallon rose buckets. Seems plenty big for 12/12 from seed. I grew a 30" plant in a red solo cup once.

ok but what was the yield? the max for party cup is usually around 1/2 oz. In my experience, the bigger the pot the bigger the yield. I am starting to get 1/4 lbs plant 12/12 from seed in 7gallons... I know it 's not really convenient for most people. I am not going to do so much 12/12 from seed anymore but that is how I got the best yield 12/12 from seed, 7 or 10 gallons container.

Damn 1/4 lb IS impressive, but I can't go that route due to the room I have. I run 10-12 in a 2x3 closet.
The cup was between a 1/2 and 3/4 oz.

hey del

saw your massive thread on 12/12 from seed. i wanted to know some stuff, cause i live at 12 latitude and it's pretty much 12/12 year round with
half an hour either way at the summer and winter solstices. so i only grow outdoor 12/12 from seed. wanted to ask you some questions

what strains have you found give you maximum yield on 12/12 from seed?
how much yield do you get per plant on average?

i'd read your thread for the info but after 20 pages, i just couldn't do it. haha

my thread is in my signature....
take a look when you're free and let me know, it'd be really helpful.

Hello mate, some good 12-12 plants are big bomb, thc bomb, kiwi skunk, white siberian, white widow, ak. cant really say ive had any really bad breeds.......under a 600 watt light id say 2 oz dry is the norm...however ive pulled 41/2 plus dry off several of mine,[ big bomb, bubblebomb, bubblegum, madness, super skunk and kiwi skunk] will drop in on your thread and see what you got going....

I have a quick question because it's kind of hard to search through 860 pages lol, how long on average do you all think it takes 12/12 from seed to show signs of sex? I know in the first few pages Del mentioned one of his had shown signs in 2 and a half weeks or so but i'm just wondering about an average.

Hey ya'll I'm growing again! Just 3 plants but they're already turning into monsters at just 3 1/2 weeks from seed. They are (from tallest to shortest): critical kush, super haze and vortex. 12/12 of course and coco in air pots sitting under 170 watts of induction bulbs with one or two cf's in the mix.

hmm, pic isn't posting, here's the link http://i1263.photobucket.com/albums/ii621/SmokeYourOwn/IMG_2352_zpsf6aeb651.jpg

They're growing like 3" a day and all showed sex at around 2 weeks. Ahhh, the wonders of mother nature!

Has anyone done c99 or lemon kush on a 12/12 cycle from seed? I have limited space and would like to do these indoors. Thanks.

Hi I have 3 plants 12/12 from seed. The two in the foreground are unknown mystery seeds from Nirvana's Christmas giveaway last year. The small one in the back is AK 48 of which I ordrered 5 feminized. The AK is 15 days old and the two in the front are 25 days old and have not shown sex yet (I think the freebies are feminized). I have had a yield problem in the past where I think its due to ventilation (7-10g per plant). I have a small $5 walmart fan in the back of a small clothes closet with not much air circulating, door is usually closed. I am upping the lights from my last grow hoping to help with yield issues. I have 2 42watt 2700, 7 26watt 2700, and one 26watt 6200 to mix up a little. I am in miracle grow moisture control soil and look for ease of grow as opposed to getting all technical. However bad circulation I think is the culprit for low yields in the past (smoke was awesome though)...

I just started a vortex which is mostly c99, so I'll let you know :mrgreen:

That soil sucks, you need something like roots organics or pro-mix or better yet straight coco with the coco-specific nutes. Oh and one of these wouldn't hurt either- http://www.gladiatorlighting.com/gl200wa-bb120-277v

Thanks buddy, will be interesting to see how it turns out, c99 is something I only ever tried once, but it was a magical smoke, taste, high, looks everything was just perfect.

Have you got a grow journal I can follow?

I have 15 sweet deep grapefruit in 1gal containers and 4 in 3gals the ones in the 1gals are atleast one week maybe two weeks ahead in flowering. Not sure if pot size or not getting watered as often is the issue but it's noticeable difference
