24 to 18

im looking to switch my times from 24 to 18 due to lack of sleep with the damn lights no need for stealth but any ideas?

just do it man, the plants wont mind a rest aswell lol

Did mine 2 hours a day. Read somewhere on here anything over that will stress the plants. Good luck

i guess my real question is would be that when i go to 12 12 for flowering do i use the time i used for 18 or the time i started the 24 for the night cycle

when you go to flower, it's a great time to mold the plant's schedule around yours. having the light on for 18 (i use 16) is a pain. when you go to 12/12, it's like a lot easier, i think. i'd put it into an extended dark period to kick off flower, which is an incentive for the plant to start blooming. 36 hrs. is a tried and true number, but remember to keep your awake/asleep times in mind.

36 hrs is not a tried and true number. A large number of experiments have been done on here and always find no benefit from it. The same conclusion I have come to. Some really believe in it but most of the time it is not people who have tried both.

blah, blah, blah.... another grnman, great!!!

WTF is a grnman?????????????????
