Yeah you should be fine. Its when you get down to 12/12 when they will flower. π

If your plants are photoperiods, you need to switch to 12/12 light schedule to get it to flower, so switching to 18/6 is fine for veg.

Sure can with no problems to worry about. The 18-6 schedule is what I use for veg along with most other people as well. Also FYI it's important that you allow your plants to sleep at least 4 hours. I say this because with every living thing requires some kind of rest and time to build necessary energy. Sure you can do 24 but IMO I find that I end up with a stronger and healthier plant when using 18-6. Hope this helps and good luck on your grow.
!! CHEERS!!!

Light Distance - 3 plants are taller than the others...Hi all. So I have 6 plants with a 400w HID. 3 of them are about 10-15CM taller than the others. My light is currently about 45CM from the top of the tallest one. Would this affect the shorter plants negatively? Should I raise them to the same level and up the light to 60CM rather

Is it too late for scrog and have I had the light too low during the veg stage?So I noticed pistils appearing and now I'm worried that I've had my light too low during veg (~8k lux). Is it too late for scrog at this point or will they continue to grow? I've now bumped the light up to 22K lux should I lower the light to increase the intensity even more? TIA

When to flip LED's 'bloom' switch on?When's the best time to flip the 'bloom' switch on my LED with an auto?
Should it be at the first sign of pistils or is there a better time to do so?
I have already flipped the switch for this plant and kept photo-period the same, looking for info for next grow.
Thanks!

LED light - Veg / BloomHey guys and girls, I have 2 autos that are a week old and looking strong. I have a Phlizon 600W Led light which comes well recommended. It has 2 switches. VEG & BLOOM. You can have 1 or both on.
Should I have both switches on (full power) at this early stage or just VEG?Setup. Lighting
