well the blue spectrum from the MH would keep the stretch down in the first couple weeks which I would assume could be beneficial. The 2 times I did 12/12 from seed I had terrible yields entirely because of the stretch.

Yeah I saw that link you posted. It kind of blew my mind a little bit.... I've done 12/12 from seed with both HPS and cfl's and I've never yielded more than about 4g/plant.
Here was my best plant from seed

Yep, my experience has been that it takes an extra couple weeks to finish as well. plus the 12/12 makes it lankier. You'd be better off just vegging for 2-3 weeks and then flowering it. That way you'll actually get some decent yields

I guess another thing to consider is that I flowered my plants in solo cups. I would expect that with sufficient root space you could yield a bit better than I did there, choking them out probably contributed to the low yields

Magash said: If the guy got good yields from seed doing 12/12 from the start he was using strains that are high in if not pure sativa.
maybe that was my issue as well. I did it with a pure indica.
Oh well, it was an experiment more than anything and I sure didn't give it my best attempt. maybe I'll try it again the future with a sativa strain and legitimate root mass and see what happens

what's up with all the yellow tags?
also, what's the square footage/plant count on that garden?

they got quite a bit lankier than I would have expected from looking at the first pic. I'm interested to see how those buds fill in towards the end of flowering
