Flowering Auto in 24hr MH light?

I got a 1000w MH light that I have going 24h. Its a special expensive blue tinted one for veg. I veg indoor and flower outdoor. I did an auto with my seeds for my grow just to allow longer veg time and so I could get bud if I run out before the outdoor flowering finishes. Anyway i leave the light on 24h because sometimes it just wont light up. Now its starting to flower, and i'm curious if anything will suffer badly because of the fact that it is a blue light (better for veg) and its on 24h a day.

The seed is a free Fastbud by Sweet Seeds. I want to make sure i'm not screwing it up under 24h of light, but ihear its better than the 10h of light we get outside this time of year.

Anyone ever flowered an auto under 24h mh?
 
ive heard that even autos need their dark time .
maybe just shove it in a dark closet after 12-18 hours each day ??
its a auto , so I think it would REALLY matter how precise it is .
everything needs its rest , even plants =) .
let it take a nap lol .

I'll leave it 24/7 for simplicity. my real concern was it flowering under blueish MH light as opposed to any red spectrum. I guess i'll find out and let people here know if it works ok.
 
all living plants need dark time(even autos!). during the day they transpire and at night they respire. google it but its only really worth keeping your lights on for 24/7 for the first two weeks after that your plant is going to suffer.
 
marijuana does not need a dark period. they will be fine. im flowering my fast buds under a mh with some 2700k cfls for the added red spectrum. im using a 250 mh. i might just throw my 600 hps on em but i dunno yet. oh and im running my lights 20/4 but 24/0 will be fine dont listen to these guys
