Question 18/6 to 24/0

I have been growing for about 3 weeks on an 18/6 light schedule. My plants are not growing as quickly as I would like. Would it help (or harm) the plants to move to a 24/0 light schedule for my last weeks of vegging?

I personally believe 18/6 is crap.. I have never used it alsways 24 hours of light for the entire veg grow.

No should not be a problem..... Also maybe you need to repot or add some nutes if growth has slowed.....

Thanks for the advice, as always.

I have seen your gallery, so I know that you know what you are talking about.

Re-potting is not really an option. I am growing hydro (see my signature for pics) and the setup that I am using doesn't allow for larger pot sizes.

Do you think that the 6 extra hours of light will make any difference in grow rate?

I am due for some nutes tomorrow, but I am on a pretty regular feeding schedule (1 x per week).
