hey i've been running my plants on 24/0 light for 2 weeks now and i was wondering if it'd be cool to just switch them over to 18/6 sometime today. this is my first grow and i havent searched as much as i probably need to but if somebody could just let me know that switching to 18/6 is fine then i'd appreciate it. i'll take some pictures later and post.

You can just switch it too 18/6. They say running the light for 24 hours after the 1st few weeks is just wasting energy. You can choose any ratio as long as the night time hours are not equal or more then 12.

Yes u can switch it from 24/0 to 18/6 i did and found it very successful,just don't keep switching the time if you set it at 18/6 leave it or you'll have a higher chance of producing hermies
