First off, why do you wanna do a 24-hour dark period?
Secondly, why do you have a 6am to 12pm (6 hour) light period?
Thirdly, why do you want a 8-hour On and 8-hour Off lighting pattern?
It shouldn't matter if you work during the light period or not: that's what the light timers are for. And if its because of the watering thing (i.e. it drys out too fast), well, you can soak the soil before you leave for work, and when you return home, it should be still moist.
Or is it because of your complicated work schedule doesn't align with the flowering period?
I'm really confused...  ~ TrueHerbCrystal ~

Oh, I think I see. So, the 6am to 12pm is for vegging, and the 8am to 8pm is for flowering...or are they both for flowering...
I guess I'm still Lost. ~ TrueHerbCrystal ~

OK, Now I get it! Thanks Amensiac!
I thought it was 6am to 12pm or Noon. Now it makes more sense as mid-night. That's my bad....I wish we all used Military time sometimes....
And the 8am to 8pm....that makes sense too. For some reason, I keep thinking you can only do it at 6am to 6pm, because of the addition, but it doesn't matter, because its all just Am and Pm anyway....
Thanks for clearing it up Amn....
So, I think that's a good schedule...as long as his stealthiness is strong enough, he shouldn't have a problem having lights on that late (i.e. past anything 7pm). Plants don't care if its night or day when the lights are on, unless you don't stealth and have open windows, then it might confuse the plant....
Its all good, I think. ~ TrueHerbCrystal ~
