Should lights be left on 24 hours a day in early stages of sprouting? At what point should the hours be cut back?

Ok guys, cheers! I suppose I could have just googled perlite or something! Insomniac retardation had set in by the time I posted that! lol @ The Great Escape! hehe /Off to cut holes in jeans pockets & strap compost sacks to legs.

You can leave them on 24 hours throughout veg. I've done most combinations, 24/0, 20/4, 18/6 and 16/8. With less lite, I vegged a little longer, 5 weeks being the shortest and 6 weeks being the long. No appreciable difference in the final product for me. But I'd say 24 hours for the early stages.

i would guess it totally depends, but that's just a guess. lol I know farmerG has mentioned that seeds from hermies actually have a better chance of being female, from personal experience I would say it's true, but who really knows?

yeah theres really nothing bad about perlite... i believe its some kind of volcanic rock/ash that they heat until it becomes white and uh...poofy sort of. It's not styrofoam or anything. just helps promote drainage and adds to the water retention of the soil

how long does it take
Published (2009-11-26 12:37:00)
I start out on 24/0.....and once they are at least 12 inches tall and healthy, I switch to 12/12. And for the last 2 weeks of flower I cut to 10 hours of light. nuttin wrong with 14-16 either! the switch will depend on how tall you want the end product and flowering space will kinda speak volumes too~

The sprouting container matters little as long as they are transplanted into a larger pot or container before they become root bound. No point in making anything for the outdoors in North America right now as there is not enough sunlight hours in a day to grow with. indoor is fine

Anywhere from 2 and a half months to 8 months. Depends on the strain, conditions, etc..
The longer you grow them in the vegetative state(longer than 12 hour light period) then the more bud you will produce when you do switch them to flowering mode(12 or less hours of light a day). No, seed size doesn't matter unless they are oddly small.

I don't think anything would eat them and I've never heard of perlite poisoning.
But you can use the soil for house plants, hanging baskets, raised beds etc.
You can take it to your municipal recycling center if you have a car.
Give it to someone who needs it for their garden.
You could use the trick out of ' The Great Escape' for stealth .

The important thing is the NPK ratio , higher N for vegging, higher P and lower N for flowering. The actual numbers like 20/20/20 or 12/12/12 are the strengths.
You can mix your own soil, there is a good thread about this called "give us your soil recipe" but it seems to be missing atm. There's a few soil recipes here medium-information-gathering-thread .
Whatever soil you use ...

Yea definetly start with soil
pot needs four basic needs to survive fresh circulating air, water food and light
with a hydro system your medium retains nothing and you basicly put the "food" directly in the water on the roots and flush it a few times... With soil you can water the soil once a dayish and the soil retains the food and enough moisture for the plant to survive
imo for a beginer go...

If the mom is healthy the clones get a better start. If you took one of your clones and one of his and vegged them for a good while in identical environments you probably wouldn't tell the difference.
Can't say I've ever had noticeable loss of vigor in clones but then I've never ran a strain for decades or anything. Probably depends on the genetics to some extent.
I think loss of ...
