I always just keep the timer the same. I dont see any reason to change it unless you really need the lights on and off at the specific time you had them set to before the time change.

Unless you got some kind of fancy digital timer that automatically changes times, just leave it as it is.

I believe the main concept of light schedule is to re-produce the sun natural light cycle. Growing indoors you can manipulate that light schedule to achieve maximum growth depending on your indoor setup and environment. For example autos can grow under 24/0 light because of genetics mainly the ruderalis strain. Personally I might give them a little more rest if they are undergoing some kind of stress but other than that it's not really necessary. You want them to grow as mush as possible. If your using 12/12 for photoperiods that is pretty much the normal.

Nothing at all. The plants don't need to get up to go to work. They stay on their same schedule.

Right — bottom line is don’t change the real-life time when they are exposed to light or darkness.
