I am starting my first auto grow. My light has a blue (veg) setting and a red(flower) setting. Would you run the lights according to plant phase or just run bought 18/6? and if so the light recommends 24 to 30 inches during germination. If I run both sets of lights should I increase the distance from the plants?

Excellent video, I have listened to her talk about microbes on "Mammoth P" videos before.
"What light cycle should I use?", gotta be a question as old as growing itself, and if you check the "interweb" you will find arguments for every option there is, lol. I.M.O. I agree with DK and believe they need some time to rest, but like I said you can find arguments either way.
Stick with 18/6. Plants need a bit of a dark period.
Good question. Part of me feels like it comes down to personal preference. In my experience, when running only Veg switch (when the plants are in Veg), the plants will have tight node spacing but growth is slower. If using both Veg and Bloom switches (while in Veg), the plants become a bit stretchier but growth is a bit faster. When the plants are in flowering, definitely have both switches on.
