Ok where does Ed say you get more bud?
.
thcreator, I really don't know, this is not the only comment he has ever made on lighting. From my reading up, it seemed to be the most common opinion, my Ed quote was just the first 30 second google I found by him on the subject. He certainly doesn't agree with the premise of your argument at least. But as Babystarbud said, we all have our own preferences.
I do 24/7, because all the literature I've come across recommends it.
.
You dont even understand the premise. I agree that they grow faster under 24 hours.
Oooo bad temper.
1. You can run 25% more wattage for the same money. (so a 250w on 24 will cost close to a 400 on 18).
Ed disagrees: "Turning the light off for 25% of the day decreases growth rate by 25%. This is actually costly because it requires the plants to spend a longer time in the vegetative stage."
2. In a sog or perp harvest where your veg is running constantly 24 or 18 will have no effect on yield though it will have a large impact on electricity consumption.
Ed disagrees: "Turning the light off for 25% of the day decreases growth rate by 25%. This is actually costly because it requires the plants to spend a longer time in the vegetative stage."
I believe Ed more than you, thanks a lot.
.
And where is Ed today?
OK I didnt mean it like that
And shorter time will definitely just in itself have a higher yield if you're doing perpetual cloning.
.
Just read what he says and take it for gospel. In the end rapid growth is the only factor that really matters right?
Forget efficiency or space.
.
Yawn. You weren't talking about efficiency or space previously, god knows what that has to do with light cycle anyway, apart from 24/7 most likely being more efficient.
I've already told you that I've read quite a bit, not just Ed.
You were immediately called out on your points with two famous cannabis growers as sources.
Where is Ed? Where are you? You didn't seem to be objecting to his proffessionalism when you were doubting my claim that he preffered 24/7.

No check me out okay my veg room 400w 2'/4'/2' will Supply me the 5 12" clones i need every week no matter if I use 18 or 24. From the cloner to 12" only takes 2-3 weeks.
