    Red face Switching from 18/6 to 12/12???

    Hey people!!

    This might be a really stupid question but I promise ive searched and searched for the answer but to no success,

    My question is how long my plants will still veg when I switch to a 12/12 light cycle? For some reason I've got two weeks in my head but because of the limited grow space I need to know how much they will continue to grow so I can work out how much room I need left when I switch to 12/12!

    Thanks for your wisdom in advance lol! and I do apologise if this is seriously a stupid question!!

    Varies though with certain strains. I'm currently growing Pineapple Chunk. When i put them into 12/12 last time it took 30 days for the stretching to stop

    Hey guys i aint got a clue what ya mean? whats super cropping and i can sort of assume what low stress training is! Plus if push comes to shove I can make more room just means doing a bit of electrics!!!
