Some Feeding questions

Ok first off hello been lurking on the forums off and on for a while.
Finaly got everything in place to do my first hydro grow and keeping it legal.
I have a ebb&grow system 12 buckets
in a sealed 6x8 room. Running a 1000w light to a liquid lumens hood and a co2 bucket system. Right now im just doing a dry run to record my temps in the room and check for leaks in the system or any other problems that might come up. Im planning on doing a 4 times daily watering and wondering when is the best time to water in cunjuction with the light schedule? I will be doing a 18/6 veg cycle. Should i do all the watering with in those 18 hours or should i water some in down time as well? Also when is the best time to do foilage spraying with the hydro setup i dont want to burn the leafs? Will be growing master kush if that helps. Also looking for Some good california master kush clones as well
Thanks!!!!

Ok, when folia feeding it should be done a low light times. I prefere just before the lights turn off, then I know there wont be any burn, or you can do it when the lights turn on before the bulb has heated up.

Its the same for watering too. In my hydro I water 15 mins when light on and 15 mins when light off. It can be a good idea to make a cover for the pots to help stop evaporation or give a extra couple of waters for 1 or 2 mins during the day, depends on what medium your growing in. Where im using hydroton pebbles its nearly impossible to over water but they dry out very quickly compared to soil or coco

Ok thankyou!!! Im trying out the Sure To Grow inserts as my medium. I was planing on making some disc covers too

I dont know "Sure To Grow" inserts. I guess they are spongy type material similar to Rapid rooters. If so they will retain water quite well so you may only want to water First thing and last thing, shouldn't be a need for extra water through the day especially as you making covers.

Good luck

Yes they seem to hold water very well. But if I see signs of wilting I will just have to up the watering. Thanks for the tips
