So i just started my auto seed. I thought i had it on a 18/6 schedule but accidentally have had it 24/0. Im going to buy a new timer soon, is it too late to switch the seedings lighting schedule if its been about 8 days of 24/0?

No worries. With indoor you play the roll of the sun. 24/0 is alright for now. I would knock it down to 22/2 for two days —> 20/4 for two days —> 18/6 as you end result. I feel like with plants less stress is always best.
Really you could just go to 18/6 but hey, I do things a little different.
Happy farming…

You could leave to veg on 24 hours light if you want, change to anything mentioned above, or even something like 12/12 if light intensity is high enough. Seedlings aren’t mature enough to flower, so even a flowering schedule would be fine to hold them in veg until maturity.
I only have room to run one tent, so i will often start my next grow 3-4 weeks from projected harvest date on a shelf or table in the corner of my basement. I use a weak 30 watt led panel to do this, so just leave it on 24/7 until my tent is clear. From there i will veg them longer or flip to flower as needed. Cannabis is c3 plant and doesn’t need any dark cycle to complete all required processing.

Appreciate the detailed responses. Thats a lot of good information. Its been a week now and i have my lights on 20%, should i kick it up to 40% yet? Keeping it 18’’ away.

With autos it doesn’t matter if u have them on 24 hours of light or 18/6
@TboneCapone you need to call HLG on Monday morning and but you a refurbished 200 Diablo for $125
Yes true, but i wanted to start on 18/6 but i must be an idiot or something because my controller 69 isnt working right. I just dont wanna run everything all day. Give her a little break. Shes been working hard. 
Yah i can understand that bro i prefer to use a 18/6 cycle but at the start i put the on a 24 cycle to get them to grow faster and bigger then i change to a 18/6
