First grow, Jack herer on 1000's

[dirtyolsouth]

Um...

Just for the record they ALL work... have their advantages and disadvantages... I tend to prefer 18/6 cuz I LIKE a bit of stretch on some strains...

My Northern Lights has been vegging forever and it's 2' tall!!! PLEASE STRETCH~!!!

Go with whatever works into your world bro... it's ALL good...

Peace~!

Some people veg 18/6 and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. It is not going to cause any harm to the plants. I have always vegged 24/0 because when I first started reading about growing I read that you can keep the lights on 24/0 and that meant I had to buy one less digital timer. Plus the growth is going to be more dense and there will be less stretch. So I have always vegged my plants in 24/0. I'm not worried about the electrical saving just because I usually veg with only a handful of 25 watt CFL's anyway. That would be a great idea for a journal! Take two clones and veg one in 18/6 and one in 24/0 under the same amount of light and then compare the growth after a couple of weeks.

"Been there...done that"..
"MY" conclusion/results were they identical number of nodes(growth), bu the 18/6 plants are slightly taller(more stretch)...:hubba:

It's funny, I posted awhile back that I read in a book about lighting times and it said 20/4 was better than 18/6 but 24/0 was not much better than 20/4 and the whole world came down on me. I still can't find the book of where I read it. I learned at that time not to post what I read unless I still have my hands on it.

Yea I noticed that happens alot, or just no response at all lol

So i finally went and borrowed my buddies Hannah ph/ppm tester and I tested my water before and run off. Before I put the solution in my soil it was a ph of 6.2 and a ppm 1100 and after that my run off was off the charts, the meter wouldnt even read it & ph was 6.5, so I added about a liter of water to hopefully compensate but then I lowered my solution to 900 ppms feed another plant and it was at 1600 ppms, I gave it a little extra water like the other one. Lowered my solution to 600 ppms and my run off was right around 1100 ppms with a ph of 6.5, so I ran with that... hope everything turns out alright lol

ROTTEN SOCKS YO! WORD TO YO MAMA! .... bored
