I have a 400w MH/hps and a 125w 6500k vitalume.. My question is what will happen if I veg under the MH&cfl for 12hrs and then use only the cfl for the last 12 or 6 hours of the day... depending on if I do 18/6 or 24/0.

Thanks everyone!

the plants will grow slower, and stretch more, which is bad

use the MH for 18 hours a day, give them a dark peroid
