As I was browsing for knowledge I came across a tidbit of information that I thought possibly was incorrect. I'd like to hear what some of the more experienced growers on RIU have to say about it.
It was said that a "24hr light cycle while vegging was better than an 18/6 cycle BECAUSE the plants grow more and stretch less. While an 18/6 cycle causes the plants to stretch NOT grow"?????
In my experience (which is limited) I found when I went from 24 hrs to 18/6 I noticed more foliage growth, my plants were not stretched and thrived. Under the 24 hr cycle it seemed the plants were slow in growth, height wise and foliage growth.
What's the straight scoop?
