1st grow where the girls actually look good.
So I've been on 12/12 for... IDK how long now. I'm suppose to go to 24 hour light when I see 10% of red hairs right?
It just seems to be taking so long I could really use some advice.
Thank you.

IDK how to add photos and don't have the time to figure it out right now. above is a link (hopefully to the photo I uploaded)

thanks for the input, yes, I started on a 8/16 at grow time as well.
But I heard of going to 24 when the hairs start to go 10% red. I'll just stay like I am then. Thanks again!

you only want to run your lights for 24 hours while your plant is in the veg stage. If its flowering, it needs 12 hours of darkness each day to develop its buds.

If you have been running 12/12 you will need to continue. If you go back to 18/6 or 24/0 your plant will go back to veg and no buds.

Ok. Thank you. I didn't realize it would send it back to veg stage.
Did you happen to see the photo? this is after a few weeks of 12/12, do you think they are doing well?
