    Default Light cycles

    Hi Guys and Girls
    I'm a first time grower and will be running a 18/6 cycle but i was wondering that as the fan makes a small but noticable hum when its on would it be ok to have the 6 hour off perod during the late afternoon early evening stage and on through the night?? Are these plants affected by the barometrical pressure drop you get through the night. Inside the box they wont have a clue if its day or night outside but can they "feel" it?? And do they react to it??


    Stupid question maybe but as you all seem to have your plants sleep when you do i wondered if it matered??

    I think u will find most people do the opposite and have their lights on at night .
    Main reasons being the leccy is cheaper and its easier to control heat from hot lights.

    It makes no difference to the plants day or night
