This guy mentions that some people have started their plants straight at 12/12, what does this do? and How much faster is it?
If you start your plant on 12/12... it doesnt auto flower. It just starts flowering as soon as possible. (allows for the shortest veg time possible) Plant wont be as big... buds probably wont be as big... dunno about potency.
You will have a tiny yield. The reason to veg out your plant is to make bud sites. Going to 12/12 too quickly is short-sighted -- if you are going to flower for 8 or more weeks to fill a dixie cup, then it makes sense to wait an extra 4 weeks to fill a mason jar.
Dude, this is a great way to grow dope. the only thing is you need a shitload of plants. they call this a sea of green and its the best way to maximize yield indoors. u dont have lower limbs on huge plants that will never develop any real bud like they would outside.
