for vegetative you can use 24/0 or 18/6
when you want to start flowering (when is up to you)
switch to 12/12

awesome... thanks braski.

if you start with 24/0

can you switch to 18/6?

or if you start with one can you not switch?

like for example what i would like to do is start with 24/0 for like 2 weeks or so. then can i switch to 18/6 , or would it put to much stress on the plant?

i suppose you can switch though i wouldn't recommend it - why would you want to do that?

they need light from the time you see green. might want to just put them on 18/6 and leave them that way until you switch to 12/12.
