Default lighting...24/7 vs. 18/6...20/4???
quick question, my little ones are approaching a month old in a day or two. i grew from seed and once i started seeing green i put them under constant 24/7 light using four 24" agrosun full spectrum bulbs and four 26 watt dalight cfl's. I'm also using a drip drain hydro ststem.

My question is, does anyone have evidence that plants will grow larger and faster under more night time hours, but not enough for them to show sex yet...Or is 24/7 the way to go?

what about with clones? i'm kinda just startin out ..first grow .. plants are about a month old. I still have to clone in the next few weeks to tell what sex each of my five are. Can clones take root with 20/4 ? cause my clones and mother will be in the same room.

Clones take root under virtually any light but for sexing 10/14 is the best. you should see sex with in a week and a half.

you should have dark. 18/6 is a good ratio. what some dont know is that in the dark plants are still preforming photosynthesis. with the dark they will be healthier plants.
