18/6 or 24 hours?
This is exactly why I want to switch to 24 hours too. I have already decided that when I flower it will be 12 hours on at night and 12 hours off in the day. For starters I think it would be better to warm the plants at night with the light and keep them cooler with the light off during the day. On top of everything else, I sleep during the day and like to watch the plants too at night. I check my babies at least 10 times a day and could sit and watch for hours I think.
Prodaytrader Reviewed by Prodaytrader on . 18/6 or 24 hours? It seems that on more then one occasion I have read where someone uses 24 hours of light for vegetative growth. I currently use 18 hours with 6 rest, but why do I do that, if the next guy is growing 24 hours a day? Exactly what is it that occurs during the off cycle in the veg state? Why can one guy do 24 hours and the next guy feel the need to do something shorter? If I can get more growth by leaving the light on 6 more hours each day, then what's stopping me? Anything?
