| Hello fellas- This may seem dumb but... I have some plants that are almost done flowering under 430w hps. I have some young ones in small pots starting to grow. Is it bad for the little ones to run on the 12/12 on off light cycle so they can be under the same light? I know it's best to run 24 hrs a day, but could I get by for a little while? -thanks a lot | ||

Would it be good for you? Never forget, if you don't respect your plants, you'll pay for it, one day! At least try 24/6 or 7... As for your question: 1- be carefull with light intensity for the young ones 2- If they're old enought, they'll flower in 1/2 weeks. i suppose you don't want that, so what you can do is removing them from darkness, for a few more hours... By the way... HAPPY GROWING SmileWolfman | ||

| wolfman: there's nothing wrong w/ giving your plants constant light...I've never seen any plant have a bad reaction to that (unless you call not flowering while under constant light a bad reaction)... indy_kid: if you've had the little ones under 12/12 for around a week or more, you might concider just keeping them in there and flowering them now...even if they're small, they should still produce a fair ammount of smoke...otherwise, give them a longer light cycle (actually, shorter dark)...they'll probably fall behind at least two weeks though.

![]() | Epicurus... "...unless you call not flowering while under constant light a bad reaction..." I think this one wasn't clear! I never meant to state you couldn't, just, as highguy once said, everyone is posting about N,P,HID,Topping,sexing,etc... It almost look like people are dealing with a machine instead of a plant... Just that! SmileWolfman [This message has been edited by wolfman (edited May 07, 2000).] | ||
