Timing Of My Lights

[sacramonel]

Hi All,

What photoperiods do you have your lights on for? I just got my 240 watt compact but wasn't sure how to time the lighting.

thanks.

Whatever time suits you really

My Lighting schedule is as follows

Actininc on at 12.00pm
Main Halides on at 13.30pm

Main Halides off at 22.30pm
Actininc on at 12.00pm

About 10 hours seems standard in a photoperiod thats convenient for you. Mine come on at 3pm (1500) and turn off at 1am (0100) but I'm a night owl

Thanks for the help. I was reading a lot about timing of lights to coincide with lunar cycles and all that fun. I'm going to have the Actininc come on about one hour before the compacts, and have them go off about an hour after the compacts.
