Cloning... light on 24hrs or 18hr

I always root my clones on 18/6 since my veg cab is on this schedule. My clones just sit over in a corner where they don't get much light. I prefer to run 18/6 all the time instead of 24hrs on.

18/6 vs 24/0 is one of those old things most can't agree on. But from what I found out it make little difference eather way.

Now if you take clones from a plant in flower I'd say go 24/0 to help the clones change back to vegging.

A lot of experts, not in the field of marijuana but just plant sciences in general, say that plants grow more roots during the dark time.

I root clones constantly as I have a perpetual grow.

I root w/ 24/0 light in soil using a humidity dome and heating pad. I have at least a 90% success rate, I honestly cant remember the last time I lost a clone.
