Yep, you don't really have to wait for a 24 hour cycle. I prefer 18/6 though. I believe the plant having time to rest is beneficial although there's very little science regarding this.

I do 24 hours light, from day 1 as a seedling.. So I wouldn't say it's too early.
Others might disagree with me on it tho.

I tried 24h on auto's but found to get better results with 20/4 or 18/6.
At the end of the day they can take morr light and use the night time to perk right back up.

Seeking a reasonably priced light for 2x4x6 tent (still)I'm interested in picking this up. Thoughts? I have a 2x4x6 tent. I believe it's 50w x 8sqft is 400 watts needed?

Is this a sign of too much light?I’m noticing the leaves grow extremely close to each other, should I be concerned at this stage, should I pull the light higher back? This is day 3 of week 2, I’m feeding it full advanced nutrients line up for veg. And drying out for a day and a half between waterings

Bud too close to the lightHi. The main bud on one is 10cm from the light. I cant raise the light any higher and have a bit more vertical growth to go. Shall I remove the bud at a lower artery, or leave it and bend it around the light somehow?? Don't want to loose the main bud but will if I have to?!?

Less light for an auto? Maybe 12/12?Been going with 18/6 for my cream autoflower from growers choice from Day 1. Now 5 weeks into flower I’m wondering if she would benefit from less light, like 12/12, as you would for a photo period plant. What do you think? Would she be happy flowering in some more dark period?Setup. Lighting

Hight ProblemsI’ve got 3 plants in my tent, but they’re all different heights. To compensate, I’ve hung my light at an angle, so one end is closer to the smaller plants.
My question is: Does this help, or am I better off keeping the light level? Any tips for dealing with uneven plant heights?

Wondering if doing another defoliatation would direct more focus to the main sites?
Also I have three other plants that are about 2.5 weeks younger, so I have to keep an 18/6 light schedule. Would I have to switch the flowering plant to 12/12 even though it's an auto?
