Hello Everyone,
I'm currently using a grow light to help my seeds germinate (they are in potting mix in red solo cups) and was wondering how long all of the indoor growers out there have their lights on per day? The light basically serves as the heat source for keeping the soil temps warm enough for germination. Right now I'm going 18 hours on and 6 hours off, but thinking about going 24/7 until I start seeing hooks. For those of you who have had success starting your seeds under grow lights, what do you recommend for amount of light per day? Should I go 24/7 until I see them break through the soil and then switch to 18/6?
