24/0 vs 18/6
It may be found out one day, but who's to REALLY say what is right. People have had success doing it either way.Ok Gotta Kick that horse myself. I cant help it.
I seen a post a while back concerning root growth vs dark period.
and the result of the study was that root growth was 55% on an 8 hour off and 16 on cycle more than with the light on constantly.
Then another post coined an article on another site claiming that a dark period is not necessary for canabis since its classified as a G3 plant.
Anyway with so much conflicting info ya gotta wonder who is right???
For instance, a plant outside grows bigger NATURALLY (keyword) without the 24/0 method, only going on the natural light/light times they receive during their lifetime. Yet, some people who do indoor grows have had success with the 24/0 cycle all the way up to flowering time. Saying they have gotten more root mass then other ones.
Maybe that's true, but who is to say it's caused DIRECTLY (another keyword) by the cycle duration. I personally think either way can work, it's more so the ENVIRONMENT (last keyword
) that the plant is in that distinguishes how well it will grow IMO (constant temps, water feeding, fertilizers[amounts], etc.).
PS so whos next to :beatdeadhorse:
