ok fellow 12-12 ers......when i say i do my plants 12-12 it isnt strictly true....i open my cab but by the time ive messed around .fed .fussed..........drooled over.....inspected with a magnifying glass.......had a few balloons [ you get the picture ]............any hoo by the time my 600 goes on ive lost an hour and then by the time i switch my 400 on 1 1/2 hours have passed.so my plants actually get max 11 hours and some 10 1/2 hours........so how many hours of hps-cfl-mh-led- do your plants actually get?

Mine will probably be 12/12 as they will be on timers and I won't sit there for hours on end drooling on them.
maybe your plants are ugly(lol sorry been messing around on the trolling thread can help it now)......j.k i got mine on a timer to the timer is not exact so i bet i loose a couple of min either way

and thx for the props everyone been growing for a while now and do really appreciate it.......

i have timer so they get 12hrs, 1 600hps turns on at 5am then when i get up i turn the other 600hps on. the second will be on i timer when they get bigger. i spend far to much time with my plants!

Spent most of the day in the bloody loft boarding out the floor so i have a space for my mother plants, what aload of old shite i found up there...now gotta do a tip run.

I dont bother with timers atm as i can switch on/off myself as im about. Gonna have to change around my light schedule soon as 19.00 lights on is becoming a pain in the butt as it means im feeding in the evening when theres enough shit going on in my house, thinking 16.00 - 04.00 then i'll have to get some timers in. My girls probably lose 30 mins what with taking them out for feeding.

Just germed 12 lemon and 20 blues beans and all cracked, well chuffed when this happens....into rockwool for these girls no coco just yet.

We're sad gits and always about to do it manually. Ive seen stacks of posts about timers messing up, cant afford for that to happen but i'll have to get one soon as i aint getting up in the early hours to switch my grow off...just make sure i get a decent one.

is your hps dual spec?

other than light proximity and temps i don't think there's much else you can do.. are they showing sex? you'll always get that stretch when they start flowering :/ how much is the flux?

you got some tree trunks there ;)
