So I've hurd a few things on when to change the light cycle an stages and what not so I jus wanna what every ones got to say.
When you concidered a seedling ready for veg?
And when do you go to from veg to to flower,

I've hurd seedling is concidered veg when it gets it first square leaf but I've also hurd that its not veg untill its got its third node.

Also when do you all go in to flower,
I've hurd that you till it's like 16 inchs then I've also hurd to wait till you've got 5-6 nodes

What does rollitup think?

depends on your plant number. your lighting . your goal . your experience. tell us what lights your using number of plants. pot size. I veg them 3 feet tall and put 3 plants under a single 600 hps 2700k and have side lighting of 10000k black light . pull 4 to 10 ounces off each depending on strand . or I will put 8 1 foot tall plants from veg under a 8 bulb 4 foot t5 light pull 1.5 to 2 ounces each plant. sea or green .

Sounds like you need to look deeper, there are multiple threads answering your question or google.

18 plants 4 inch rock wool
2t5s (the reach all plants) 8 inches off the plants transplant int to foxfarm potting soil,

The length of vegg depends on size of space and type of lighting. A rule of thumb is they will stretch at least 2x their height or more when put into flower. Flip at 2 ft you will have 4 ft plants when done . Now if your only running T-5's the light penetration is not that deep and you want to focus mostly on your tops and flower them at 1 ft because anything below that won't get good lighting.

I am planning on getting a hps and mh set up I just need the ballist first
But thank you that's a little bit more of an answere I waslooking for

When would you a plant is out of the seedling stage, I've hurd it's out on the first leaf, when its at its third node and also when the embrotic leaves drop,
That's what's really getting me, because I'm running 24 while in seedling and I plan to go down to 18/ 6 soon

Dude what does it matter when it is or isn't a seedling ? I would say it's "Officially" a plant on it's first set of 5 finger leafs .

Only reason I'm wondering is cuz I wanna do 24 on seedling stage and switch to 18/6 when it's not concidered seedling,
I wanna do it like this, to keep everything close, and get a crazy stretch when it time to flower

Well it's up for debate when you put your girls into flower...but...for me, the seedling stage goes from sprout to cotyledons ((lil round leaves=food/energy for seedling)) wilting and me starting 1/4 strength nutes...this starts the veg stage, when you start feeding...and then I wait for it to show sex as well as nodes starting to stagger, this shows maturity and that it's ready for flower....good luck

You can put your seedlings on 12/12 and they will flower only when sexually mature around the 5th or 6th true leaf sets. Look for a 12/12 from seed thread in the indoor section.

a plant is in veg till you flip to flower. so there's only two schedules. 18/6 and 12/12. or you could do 24/0 and 12/12. or you could do 20/4 and 12/12. or you do 22/2 and 12/12. or you do 19/5 and 12/12. or you do 12/12 from seed. in that case there would be no veg state. or you do 12/12 on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and 18/6 on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday and just turn the lights off on Sunday. or you could do put everything on a timer and just walk away and hope for the best. I hope that helps:)
