After I got my seeds to sprout I put them in rockwool and let them go 18/6 under my 8 bulb T-5 unit. Things were going good for about 4 days until my timer (for unknown reasons) didnt shut off. I went to check on the plants for a "lights off" visit. Ended up the lights were still on (48 hours) and the 6 DNA Denetice Sharksbreath were toast. I know some growers go 24/0? The seedlings were folded over and burnt and the rockwool was pretty dry. I had the light about 10 inches from the seedlings and they appeared to be doing fine while the timer was working. I returned the timer to Home Depot and bought a Hydro Farm timer from my local grow shop. Now I guess I'll move on to the G-13 NL/SK seeds that I have left and use only 4 of my 8 lights until they get to be a bit bigger?
