Clown Baby Well-Known Member Jul 16, 2012 #2 To answer your question, yes, you can switch to 24 hours or light. Go ahead and jam out with your clam out. The consensus seems to be that people get better growth with 18/6 or 20/4, though.

P pblayde1906 Active Member Jul 16, 2012 #4 I wanna change it bc I recently added more cfls but don't have the timers to put on them and the power strips I'm using wont accommodate more timers. So my thought is to take all the timers off and just do 24/0
