I like the 24 myself and have never had a problem with it.

we just had this poll a week or 2 ago. It was pretty much split 50/50.

more hours = more electricity = more money

more light = more growth

giving the plants some rest.... just feels right to me

Roots grow best in the dark period, and large root mass is essential for healthy plants. Plus, its best to simulate natural conditions when growing indoors.

18/6 all the way!

Have a read in this thread. It was discussed about a week ago. There is some interesting information about the calvin cycle.

Read the CALVIN CYCLE and you´ll understand why the dark period in veg is important.
