Which ones better to veg under ? 18/6 or 24/0 ? whats the difference between the two? do you veg under 24/0 for the entire veg cycle if u do it that way?

post what you know about the two differences.
 
ive always done the 24 hr thing plants just grow faster also less wear and tear on your hid lighting if thats what ya got
 
I always use to do 24/0 but the grow im doing now i have changed and tried the 18/6 in my opinion i like this better now that i have tried it i find my plants are not as tall they went bushy this time it might have nothing to do with the light but that is the only thing i changed this time around same dirt same clones same everything but light
 
Done 24/7 and 18/6. I haven't seen a vast (if any) difference. I'm saving the $. (plus if possible, toss the saved $ into flowering. thats where the money is made)
 
my last grow i did both 2 weeks of 24/0 then 3 weeks of 18/6 but its all a personal preference imo. I do remember reading something about plants on 18/6 show sex sooner when switched to 12/12 dont know how true that is

Funny thing about the wives's tales. 24/0 gives more males, 18/6 shows sex earlier.

Doing that, I should have nothing but males. never had one! I keep praying for a son, but nothing but sluts!

As for males vs females its all be decided when the previous female was pollinated. The seed knew long before you did.
(other may disagree, I said my piece)
