24-0 photoperiod
A 24-0 photoperiod is a good option when the seed is just starting to germinate. You don't need to keep the light on full, as the topsoil and seed can dry out easily. This can be prevented by covering the soil with plastic to retain moisture. Remember to air the soil every day and monitor the moisture level.
A 24-0 photoperiod is also used during the vegetative stage of the plant before flowering to help the plant grow larger. It also helps speed up the drying of the crop, especially if the inflorescence has been cut smaller before drying.
