muddy waters said:Elephant Man it sounds like you have some great genetics indeed. gotta love someone who encourages cannabis hankypanky (they're organisms too they must love sex).
btw I don't consider sativas to be strictly outdoor plants, and sativa hybrids are made for this flower direct method in my opinion. In exchange for a slightly longer flowering time you get 2 or 3 principal colas instead of just one. But I even like the buds on a stick and if you proportion them the proper spacing you can get 3-4 little single cola plants in the same area as a single sativa hybrid.
i'm also very interested in the possibility of getting single cola sativa plants for breeding by manipulating the container size, nute regime, and using an extreme photoperiod of 11/13 or 10/14 even. your basic bonzai tactics. don't know if that will work but i want to try. i have gotten some dwarf buds with sativa hybrids, single cola, usually underdeveloped though with abnormally small leaves.
speaking of photoperiod i say 12/12 but usually i run my cabs on 11/13 to economize the light bill and get things in a little quicker. i'd like to know what atmosphere in particular thinks of this--does it sacrifice yield? how much? would 10/14 be exaggerating?
these were grown on 11/13 and the sativa hybrid in front took a little longer to finish, by the time it was chopped the afghani hybrid back right (3 gram wonder) was already chopped dried and smoked.
muddy waters said:the quickest of the quick will finish about 11 weeks from germination. most finish about 12-13 in my experience.
Lofty said:onthatlevel i've always believed that the lite is as impotant as the dark, there must be a point where the extra time making flowering hormone in the dark has to b balanced by the plant using sugars in the lite, my first thought is 14/10 wud not b an even balance?
as the man said we need to know.
E man i'm really interested in the lite moving for improvement, mor info please.
philo i love love love them pics of the pollon on yr other thread
i'm guna go and get som beans next week, i think i'll try WW or misty.

kooki said:Sorry but i dont quite understand what u mean by that statement?
How can a seed u plant n start in 12/12 be the same chronological age as a clone that u have taken from a plant, taken time to root, and then put in 12/12 at the same time as the seed.. just doesnt add up.
SatGhost said:....if you run two sog's side-by-side, one with clones and one with seeds, the seed sog will finish sooner than the clone sog even though they yield about the same per harvest, so therefore the seed sog is more time efficient/higher yielding over time....
