Is 24 hours of light continuously 24/7 bad for my plants??

Hello Rusty,I was not trying to "slam" his opinion, that is really hyperbole on your part.
In fact I stated I held the same opinon right up to a few years ago, till I got some facts. But you are right, I should have labled it opinon so not to offend anyone who wanted to disagree with current scienitific thinking on this subject.

Hyperbole...? An obvious exaggeration...? Lol. You are slamming anyone's opinion that doesn't jive with yours. I could care less what the subject matter, if you are going to correct someone else's post, you damn well better be ready to back your words. Again...what facts? All I'm asking is for you to show some proof of your difinitive statements.

here goes. It is my opinon, based on what I've been taught in a classroom, read in a botany textbook and later proved by real world experiments that marijuana, as a C3 plant has no need for a dark period or in human terms "rest" period, while in it's in VEGATIVE state. And they will grow roots without any dark period. In fact, while growing 24/0 for 24/7 it is quite "happy" to put it in human terms again. During the FLOWERING state a dark potoperiod is necessary.

As I perviously stated, most of us believe that the rest period is helpful. Nobody said mandatory, as we all know cannabis does not need a dark period early in veg. But regardless, are you claiming that cannabis grows better (healthier, faster, stronger) on a 24/0 schedule in veg, than a 18/6 schedule? I'm not a believer, so go ahead and feel free to prove it.
In my experience, rooted clones and seedlings do better with a nightly dark period. I offer no proof, but I know what works for my cannabis plants, and share this insight with others.

In the future when I state something, I'll use the opinon disclaimer, even when I know it to be fact...like C3 plants need no dark photoperiod during veg.

Damn good idea, as your "fact" is lacking proof. Especially if in regards to improved growth habits.

Soooo speaking of cannabis fables, how about some proof for your opinon that marijuana needs a "rest period"?

My proof...? There is none, which is why the debate continues unresolved.
Your last statements are childish at best. :thumbsup:
