Hi guys so next grow season I’m looking to start vegging plants indoor winter with a light schedule of 13 hours on 11 hours off until the outside in spring has meant that same requirement as the indoor lights I’ve just seen to many reports on people screwing up but i suppose it’s all about learning does anyone know if that light schedule will work from germinating and early veg onwards

No it won't.
They'll go straight into flower

It’s all confusing because where I’m from we only get about 11 hours off day light during spring and plants do fine
From seed a plant will veg for a given period regardless of the hours of light even 12-12

From clone they're going to flower with more than 10hrs± of uninterrupted darkness because they're mature enough to flower.

Yo, 13/11 can totally work, but it's a bit of a wild card, ya know;)? Most growers kick off with something like 18/6 or 20/4 for solid veg growth, but you can definitely try the 13/11 and see what happens. Just be prepared for some weirdness:blsmoke:. Less light can make your plants stretch like crazy,, so keep your eyes peeled.

And don’t be afraid to tweak things if they’re not vibing. Some strains are super picky about light schedules,, so if you notice them gettring lanky or sluggish, bump up the hours a bit. Experimenting is part of the game—just keep learning as you go:)!
