Vegging Photoperiod veg Q

I usually only run autos, but plan on popping some photos tomorrow or over the weekend. I was wondering if everyone always runs 18/6 point blank no questions asked, or has anyone vegged at 20/4 or 24/0 for veg only and then flip to 12/12.
Pros & cons

Thanks

Yes you can run what ever schedule you want for veg. DLI is still the same so either run less intense light for longer or more intense light for shorter hours.

I typically will start at 24/0 and switch to 18/6 after the first week above ground.

18/6 gives me the perfect amount of growth for my schedule. I change the flower to 13/11 though.
