Usually i run my MH for 6 hours, from 5pm -11pm, Actinics for 8 hours, 4pm-12pm.

However ive been playing around with the idea of varied photoperiods and now im running the lighting as follows:

Monday: 5pm-11pm (6hrs)
Tuesday:5pm-11pm (6hrs)
Wednesday: 4pm-11pm (7hrs)
Thursday: 4pm-11pm (7hrs)
Friday: 5pm-11pm (6hrs)
Sat/Sun: 2pm-11pm (9hrs)

Supplement schedule didn't change, been doing this for about a week now and i cant say i see a difference in anything.

Once I get a new lighting fixture I plan on a 14 hour cycle, 14 hrs actinc and 10 hrs halide.
