Guiding how much time between guide corrections.

Hi all

Being as I am wanting to do more off galactic plane images, where those guide stars can be just a little harder to find, I am after others info on how they guide, in particular, time between guide corrections, ..... Normal, out there if you have to , and did it work if you pushed the time out a bit.
If you could also give an idea of your mount and FL that would help fill in the picture.

I normally use 1 sec corrections, on a g11, FL 900 plus No problems, am wondering if 2 or more seconds works well enough.

Too wet and cloudy here to trial and error at the moment, and once the good weather gets here I don't want to waste too much time on things that are not going to work.

Thanking you in advance

Clive
