Anybody have any tips for growing aquatic plants quickly? There are no fish in the tank for now so would it be beneficial to leave the lights on all the time or do they need periods of darkness too? If so for how long? Already fertilizing, any other ideas?

nope, plants need the darkness too. plus you would be asking for algae doing that
