Would it cause any problems to change from 18/6 light to 24/0

My plants are about 10 days old and have been under cfls 18/6 since planted. I was thinking about changing to 24/0 light schedule to make everything go a little faster. Is there any problem from going to 24/0 if you started 18/6?
 
ya I just want to change it this one time I think, at first I didnt want to do 24/0 because I wanted time for my cfls to cool, but with fans on them all the time I can hold them after they have been on 18 hours and they arent hot.
 
I started mine with 18/6 and then found out that I could go 24/0 with the CFLs im using so I started adding 20 min more light a day and am up to 22\2 where im going to leave it. Some people say 18, some say 24, so I'm going right down the middle lol. Anyone think thats a good or bad idea?
 
18/6 vegging simulates summer and 12/12 simulates winter.
you start fucking around with that and you got a hermie plant (He,She)
 
Im just gonna stay with the 18/6 I think. My plants will probably go through enough stress without me worrying about changing there light patterns around.
