Can a plant be switched from 12/12 to 18/6? It has only been on 12/12 from seed for one week now.

So whats the difference from being on 12/12 and going to 18/6? Grow faster or anything?

Yeah! The plant will get about 50% more light per day. More light means more Photosynthesis. More Photosynthesis means more growth!

Helping a friend do a 12/12 grow but he wanted to also have a mother set aside so that next time can use clones for the 12/12 grow rather than starting from seeds. Get more weight that way.
