    6/2 veg. Light schedule

    Hello my friends, I noticed that near the of the 18 hour light schedule, my plants tend to get a little droopy. So did some research on the net, add discovered it is normal. To make a long story short, it recommends a 6/2 light schedule during veg, for maximum results
    anyone tried this schedule?

    Yes I've done it, called Gas Lantern schedule pretty cool history. It was very inconvenient in a one-room operation limiting time for access. it makes three different times I couldn't open the door and trying to remember when I got frustrated and just went back to 20/4.

        Nope, you can veg at any light cycle above 18 including 24/0.

      I think droopy is too wet or too high humidity maybe? Mine when heat or light stressed do the canoeing and curl up. What RH and temp are you running when lights on? How much light?

        RH is staying around 50%. Temp is 77- 80 degrees
        I'm on the 6/2 and the temp hasn't been over 77 and leaves are not drooping.

        ​​​​​​​the girls seem to like it. I'll keep you posted.

          That would definitely bother me for the same reasons as Mr.furley has stated. Only being able to do speratic hours of work at a time in my space wouldn't workout with most of my schedule.
          Glad it seems to be working for you! 😊

        I don't follow what you're saying? you work in your space when the lights are off? I do all my work when the lights are on. I don't disturb the girls when the lights are off.

          No, sorry. Misunderstanding.
          Do you ever worry about extra wear and tear on your equipment with all the extra on and offs?

        No it's only the lights that go on and off. Fans go 24/7

          Very interesting way of programming the lights.
