I wouldn't. Messing with photoperiod can stress the plant and take away vigor. I don't know how many seedlings you have, but $40 will buy two flourescent shop lights that you could put them under until you transplanted outside.live in northeast, have a grow down stairs about 4 weeks in, not in a light tight area, want to grow seedlings for outdoor, can i grow them on a 12 hour time for a time, how long? will be starting from seed
thanks
True, there is some stress there, and that creates the chance for a hermie but people reveg plants all the time. Usually it ends up fine.I wouldn't.

He's putting the seedlings in the flower roomIt might end up fine but it's not going to hit it's full potential. Why not go 18/6 or 20/4 or just 24?

18/6 or 20/4 is better than 24/0 because youre spending the extra money on electricity and it doesn't make a big difference in the plant. Also it slows root growth since they grow the most during the night.
More roots more fruits
