    Cup o' Water Germination

    That's entirely up to you. The debate rages on over which is better, but it'll always just be a personal preference in my opinion. Do a search on 'photoperiod' here or on Google, you'll get a lot of information about who uses what schedule, and why. If you do run a 24/0 schedule, make sure you power down everything for at least 15 minutes or so every week. Lights, fans, pumps, etc., will have a longer life if they're not kept running constantly. Other than that, the choice is yours. :thumbsup:

    Cup o' Water Germination

    I used the same germination technique as Fencewalker :thumbsup: and they cracked in about 1 day.As for light,I am currently using 24/0 for now up until they are about a month to a month and a half,then switching to 18/6.I'm just not sure if I should do this slowly or all at once.
