My seedling just sprouted can I leave the lights on 24/0 now to speed up the veg process ? I have them on 20/4 if I leave them on that light cycle or put them on 24/0 until I flower it how long will I need to veg it?

18/6 is what i do it makes more sense naturally if you wanna do 24/0 until flipping time by all means its your plants mate
you can do 12/12 whenever tyou want , but generally people veg their plants for 4-6 weeks depending on strains space environmental factors ect.

these are some REALLY REALLY basic and overally asked questions i suggest you read through our newbie section and read up youre likely to find your answers faster than we reply

NO - the only time to use 24 hrs light is in the first weeks of development (Germination stage 1-14 days and 1st week of Seedling stage) Plants need sleep just like us. They need the dark time to grow use 18/6 after your 24hrs light

i vegged 24hrs no problems obviously it cost a bit more. Plants showed visual growth every 6hrs easily. Mine vegged so well they already started showing sex during 24/0 at day 30. All 4 are girls.
