Hey, not sure if this topics been covered before but I'm wondering if autos really benefit the most from a 24/0 light schedule. I've read elsewhere that all plants need rest and then I've also read that it doesn't matter what schedule they get. If you start on a certain schedule, like 24/0, will changing it stunt growth? Thanks

Not at all. Most people, myself included, start off 24/0, then once the plant is past the seedling stage, switch to either 18/6 or 20/4. It's a matter of preference, the biggest difference being that it will most likely finish a week or two sooner if you keep lights on 24/0.
Good luck with your grow!

I kept the indoor hydro auto dwarf grow in my sig file on 24/0 continuously for over 10 weeks and it produced beautifully.

Autos can be grown with any length of light, thats what is so great about them! Personally I use 20/4 never tried anything else so why switch now

Cuz you can get 24/20 = higher 20% productivity? (I don't know if that's true, but I suspect that you do get more with more hours of light. Maybe just a 20% higher electricity bill?)

Idk but somebody needs to test it already lol. Im sure you will get more, but I dont think it will be worth the cost in electricity.

That's actually a test I'd like to do. It would be pretty easy with some clones...
