Tons of people do 24/0, and tons do 18/6, some do 20/4. I used to be a firm believer in 24/0 for the first two weeks but honestly I've latley switched to 19/5 or 20/4 for all first couple weeks, then 18/6 because the plants on 24/0 grew such a minuet amount faster then the 18/6 plants that it was hardly worth the electricity.

If u leave ur lights on 24/0 then your are taking out the dark cycle where the plants stretch out geting there height, plants will usually stay smaller when u leave the lights on 24/0... This is my own personal experience and others might say something else
