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.

Light timer ProblemHey Growers.
So I made a dumbass mistakes…..for the last 18 days I have had my light timer set for 12 hrs 15 mins on and 11 hrs 45 off. They are looking good and budding up. I’m wondering is that close enough to 12/12 to have my day 1 flower be true for accuracy sake.
Thanks

LED light recommendationI am going to need a new LED light to hang from the ceiling. I am looking for a light that has the red/blue spectrum. A dimmer switch would be awesome- the ones I read about that include-seedling, veg and flowering settings sound amazing.
Any recommendations out there?
Thanks inSetup. Lighting

Lamp to plant distance: is 40cm enough during flowering phase?Started with 70cm (afraid to "burn" the leaves), but moved it down to 40cm after checking other grow diaries for auto seeds.
Should we keep the lamp ~25-40cm away from the plant from now on?
*Lamp is a 300W LED panel (full spectrum)Week 7
