YES, don't do it. All cannabis plants, autoflowers included, NEED sleep to finish their photosynthesis cycle and to have a correctly functioning metabolism. A plant with an incorrectly functioning metabolism will NEVER grow to the best of its ability. A lot of plant processes occur during the dark period, without a dark period, these processes obviously can't occur......leading to an incorrectly functioning metabolism and a plant that isn't growing healthily/to its best ability. The MYTH that it is ok to grow cannabis for weeks/months without sleep needs to be removed from history asap! 18/6 is optimal for veg or the entire cycle for autoflowers. Also, cannabis can only grow so much during any one 24 hour period and this growth tops out around the 18 hour mark, meaning running your lights any longer than 18 hours is basically a waste of electricity......so there is little to be gained by being greedy and trying to push your plants past what they are capable of by giving them 19/5, 20/4, 21/3 etc.

You're only providing 8W of light which isn't going to grow much of anything here - you're going to want at least 100W if you want success. And yes, you can certainly leave them under lights for 24 hours... It's good you are taking them out to the sunlight every day but why don't you leave them out there? Does it get very cold? Even indirect sunlight is going to be more beneficial to the plant than 8W. If it gets cold at night, you can bring them inside for the night... but let them spend as much time outside as possible if you can't increase the amount of light you are giving them indoors. Good luck!

Para las autoflorecientes es completamente normal, te permite mantener variables estables y si promueve mas crecimiento, en el caso de tener una luz potente no seria aconsejable, pero con una luz débil (bajo ppfd) si puede ser una buena forma de sacarle rendimiento, ya que, lo importante a considerar es el DLI (Daily light integral) que viene siendo la cantidad de luz utilizable por día que recibe la planta. Revisa mi diario, a mis plantas les doy 24-0 en vegetativo y luego 20-4 en floración. Saludos y buenos cultivos 🤝

Okay so it's not wrong, but not healthy. They need rest. Plus it is hard on equipment and electric. So give them at minimum 4 hours if not 6. 👍

Not wrong but they will go to sleep any way, in my humble opinion better to do maximum 20 if you not a fan of the 18 <3 growers love <3
