Best yield in a limited amount of time?

24/7 ok 4 veg tho? i bin told itll grow faster as 18/6 basically causes the plants to have a day of darkness a week

wrong, you plant will grow fastest with 24 hour lighting.

there is some debate as to whether it will grow 25% faster. as it is getting 25% more light

in this months Cannabis Culture Ed Rosenvelt (sp?) has an article saying that having plants in 24hour veg will increase yield from 15%-25%. And they will grow 25% faster.

I plan to open up a debate on this shortly

but there is no debate on the fastest growth(24/7), only the most efficient growth

I veg under flouros 24/7. Then when I go to flower, I go 12/12. Then, the last 2 weeks or so, when it is almost harvest time, I go to 10hrs light, 14 hrs off. This simulates the winter coming on and the buds fatten up hoping to get pollenated by a male. (which I smoke before that ever happens

big bud.... heavy indica flower is 50-60 days some sativa, ur not gonna see many flower times under 50days.

Its a myth really the 24/7 light, i would open up a debate unless you have seen both kinds of light times and have watche dthem pretty close, plants do grow on the dark periods, actually roots grow the most at night, and the plant converts co2 to oxygen at the dark times, so there are many reactions the plant is undergoing on the dark times, to think 24/7 light would robb this from the vegg stage.

. So i would stick with 20/4 or 18/16 i like 20/4 also i do keep them on 24/7 during germination and seedlings because they need a little jumpstart.

Hi
If your growing for quantity you'll need three area's.
1. for pre-growth, to put your cuttings/seedlings in.
2. a grow room ready to put plants in.
3. a drying area
Pregrow for 4-6weeks then transfer into grow room for 7 weeks flower then cut an dry in room 3
you'll have a crop every 8 weeks
