  4. whats gonna happen when you stiop 24/7?

    they fall to flower!

    a very tricky situation for any noob!

    avoid 24/7 18/6 is better

    cheers/
     
  5. They will go into flower might even at 18/6. Keep them like that till I want them to start flowering. Kinda small but if u don't have nutes ur soil may run out of feed if u veg it too long. I would transplant it in to a 5 gal bucket with some promix water only soil. Or fox ocean Forrest it will keep them happy nutes wise. U could get a small bottle of tiger bloom from fox for when u reduce light hours to flower it

  10. I had my current grow vegging on 24/0 for the first few weeks from clone and dropped it to 18/6 and saw zero issues. For sure they never went into flower. I could be wrong but these plants aren’t going to flower with 18 hours of light. Also growth was quicker on 24/0 compared to 18/6

  16. All kinds of info on here about how good 24/0 light schedule for veg is. Had mine on for 24/0 schedule since it cracked the soil for 7 weeks now, putting into flower this week when the next feeding comes up. 3 plants in 2x4 cab. 20190325_140745.jpg
