24/7, 18/6, 12/12... Could you do maybe 13/11 or 14/10 and still have your plants flower? or does it have to be 12/12??

And... GO!

To make it flower need more or equal dark hours to light. People do 12/12 because makes it flower while giving it the most light hours possible. This is how I see it anyway.

Thanks. But could you maybe trick you plants into flowering w/ an extra hour of light? I'm on 12/12, but I've seen some grows with people experimenting with longer "lights on" periods during flowering. I've never seen the results though... just a curious thought.

Possibility. Experiments are just that, experiments. If you havent already get few grows under your belt, stock yourself with as much weed as you can smoke then experiment on a small grow and if goes wrong your not gonna go with out You will find lots of different preferences and opinions in this forum, some IMO are good, some are shit, up to you to see what works for you.
