Hawk would you agree that switching them to 18/6 after they were started under 24 wont be too stressful?

I've decided to go18/6 . I've got 2 timers, 1 for the fan only.
I'm growing 1auto, so 10 weeks to finish at 18hr. The other 4 seedlings, too. keep it simple , though when I hang out with them while they're growing up , I might a few extra hours and/or watts/lumens On them.
I've got 2 different mints, a Basil and a catnip in the same room that I brought in from outside. Usually they die down in the winter, but I'm going to veg them inside this year. Kind of a natural air freshener.

Wont stress em at all man. I use a 18/6 now as well. While marijuana doesn't "need" a dark period during their veg time, there are processes the plant goes through when the lights are off. It also saves that much electricity.

Yeah I normally always veg 18/6...I was just worried that switching them to 18/6 after they started out under 24 for the first few weeks of their lives might stress them into herming or something.

Would anyone recommend 24 hours of light for clones made during 4th week of flowering to get them to revert to veg faster/more completely than 18 hrs of light?
