Looks great to me. i was gonna say it sounded thirsty honestly. if your plants start lookin droopy water them and wait a bit to see if they recover. if they dont THEN you can start to worry

You can, not sure if it will much of a difference at this stage. If you do, make sure you do it just before the lights turn off.

my lights r on 24 hours rite now.
there is another user on here that will try and talk you into foliar feeding every time you talk to him. i swore id never spray the leaves, after all i give them everything they need in the water through the soil. one day i got bored (lol) and now every day twice a day i foliar spray with 50% nutes mixed with soda water instead of normal water. its easily noticeable how much growth is achieved between spraying, would be close to 2 inches a day new growth. i repotted from 1.5L pot to a 15L pot and the roots are showing out the bottom 6 days later lol. am growing in soil/perlite/coc mix, indoors, feeding every 3 days 500ml water/50% nute mix.

I'd recommend that you give you plant a rest, let it get 4 hours sleep to encourage more foliar growth. That is, stick it on 20/4. When growing indoors you want to simulate a realistic environment. With the exception of the polar region there is no where with 24 hour light.

Yeah, I've read that when the lights are on the roots are growing, and when the lights are off the plant is growing.
