If you keep your temps in the 70s you should be good. The light cycle for vegitation can be 18/6 or even just 24/0. Once you start to flower your plants put the light cycle on 12/12.

Yeah, you can leave it on full time with no problem. I have heard of many people doing this. The plant wont start to flower until you put it on the 12/12 cycle. It all depends on the plant and other factors, but let it grow a few months and when it is of a decent size then you can start to flower. Obviously the longer you wait to flower the bigger the plant and greater potential of more flowers, but then you also have to wait longer.

yeah, many do use the 24/0 for vegging while probably more use the 18/6 or 20/4. personally i use the 20/4 but have used 24/0 for many years. i found very little difference in the plants but a nice savings on the elec bill going with the 20/4.

temps...shouldn't ever exceed 95. it does happen however (air exchange fails for whatever reason) and all's not lost. they will recover from short term exposure to high indoor temps (they handle extreme outdoor temps much better). optimum temp should be anywhere from low 70's to mid 80's with the cooler end during flowering, if possible. the plants will do ok anywhere above freezing but they tend to pause in their growth when temps stay below 45...

there's a lot of info around the net for environment of your grow space so try a search at www.overgrow.com (FAQ's). i'm sure you can find other ideas that would work in your set up.

good luck
