I am in the process of cloning my first plants and I'm not sure what lighting schedule to put them in.

I've read from some sources that clones require lots of light for energey so they should be on the 18/6 or 24/0 schedule. I've also read in other sources that you should limit the amount of light because roots grow during the dark period. I have no idea which one is correct and would appreciate any advice on the matter.

On a similar topic I recently switched to the flowering stage of the grow and am keeping the clones in the same room as the main plants (12/12 light cycle). The clones are kept on a shelf above the light source. My question is whether the limited light from reflection is enough for clones or should I provide them with their own light source?

To summarize:
---------------
1. What light cycle should be used for clones
2. How much light do clones need
