Can you clone under 18/6?

I want to move my cloning setup into my veg room without having to put it in its own light proof compartment... Basically will cloning work under 18hrs of light and 6hrs of darkness?

I've always cloned at 18/6. I have to admit I have no idea what the benefits are of one vs. the other, it's just what I was taught and I've kept doing it. Works fine for me.

I did find that when I tried cloning in my main room along with vegging plants it didn't work as well though. Don't know if too much light could be a problem? Or too much airflow in that room? I went back to them having their own little space with a shoplight after that one attempt.
 
cool thnx RIU. I'm gonna try it out this time around..
Howd it turn out? im just put some clones in a dome in my veg tent and have a heating pad on a timer, temps stay 78-75F and humidity is 86-88% only tjing im not certain of is the 18/6 light i am vegging with,( the clomes are plenty far enough to not burn)
Is the 24/0 vs 18/6 light cycle argument solely for the temperature drop? because my heating pad will sustain an appropriate temp
