Hi everyone,

How many hours of light do you all suggest I use for the first 4 weeks of vegetation? I heard that you should use 24 hours of light in the first four weeks....?

Also, at what time of the plants vegetation should I start using a fan?

Thanks.

i use either 24/0 or 18/6. the older they get the less light i give them, and YES keep that fan on 24 hours a day.. helps strenghtens them..

there is no right or wrong answer, some people say 24/0 but ive noticed veg growth at night and when the lights come on they grew i their sleep, i go 19/5 right now and im in week 4 of veg, but ive done 19/5 the whole time and its worked good. fan=24/7 all the time. its really up to you man, but remember your supposed to be recreating nature so there is no where that you have 24 hrs a day except the north and soth pole, kinda makes sense to me plants need night time like we do...check out my first grow whatcha think
