Different strokes for different varieties, but in general weed plants need at least 14 hours of light or they will begin flowering. Normally it's 12/12 for budding and 18/6 for veg, but I usually try flowering with 13 hours of light (the more the better).

Ya i good rezolts with 12/12 but i know that there are always ways to make stuff better and the light is one of the most important parts so if u play around with the light say 12 hours light and say 13-15 hours of dark OR 13 hours of light and like 13-15 hours of dark what does everyne have to say about this!!!:thumbsup::rastasmoke:

The more light you can feed your plant and still have it flowering, the higher the yield will be. That's why I start off assuming my plants can handle 13 hours instead of the normal 12. I haven't flowered a strain yet that refuses to flower under 13 hours. For even more light time, check out giving it some 735nm light solely. I haven't seen any experiments yet (though there probably are some), but the theory is that you could increase light times during flower by a couple hours. Too bad those damn 735 LEDs are damn expensive, or I might just try an experiment myself.

led's are ideal for growing I heard you can give your plants up to 15 hrs with the red and blue lights and gives your plants the chloraphil a and b they need without the heat from the hps setups

You heard correctly, but its pretty expensive to get them the lumens they need at this point.
