DON'T
DO NOT RUN HID GEAR 24 HOUR
It's not designed to run hot full time and need's a cool down period .
A half a hour a day for cool down is good .
Saefty first as alway's

what about 16 hours light? , plants drink at night, when the lights go off the foliage falls asleep and the roots go to work on the nutrients. when i first started growing i was told never to feed my plants during 'daytime' as it puts them under stress.and could turn hermi. but the canna grow guide states 18 hours while others say 20. I start at 20 hours and the knoc 2 hours off every week till their on 12/12 if they need longer just keep them at 16.
has any one tried a 24/7 cycle?
24 hours of light whilst rooting my cuttings
18/6 whilst in veg, I believe plants need the dark period for a rest (tbh I've vegged under 24/0 lately and was not happy) ((timer broke heheh))
I know plants do suffer from shock,but we never say...ah yes you have shock damage there mate.
I think plants that have suffered shock through transplanting or in our case changing the light period quickly recover,especially if the plant is healthy and all the other needs of the plant are met ie,proper soil, nutes, lighting etc.
It might be a good idea to closely mimic natural light cycles as much as possible ,(time permitting ) after a 24hr veg,and slowly change the lighting incrementally.
Maybe,
24/0
18/6
12/12.
@ budman,
You would think 18/6 would induce flowering , i think i will try 18/6 next grow.
Does it affect the growth rate in veg ?.
I would imagine the rest period would aid the plants growth when lights turn back on.
