I personally think that it is perfectly fine to water at night. It seems the most logical, but what the hell is guerilla growing?? Yes, I suggest watering at night.

You know what, now that you say so I do remember that. When I would check on mine it would be like... a sleep. But I think it is fine to water them at night. I did it all the time.

guerilla growing is growing a short distance from your house or work maybee and if you get caught you just say there not yours and you never planted em lol :cool:

I thought the true meaning of guerilla growing , was to live out in the bush, with your plants ALL season...
The most important thing is not watering the foliage at night, it can cause molds,mildews, and fungus to start growing. Plants prefer morning water, but it rains at night all the time doesnt it.
Plants do a lot of things during the dark period, I dont remember exactly,I think they convert thingamajigs into sugar, and other chemical processes, they dont really sleep, there just not raising there leaves up to the sun.
Your plant does not search for the light in that period as it knows it is not there and it does other things in it chemical proccesses as the_mole said. Plants never sleep, they keep on growing and growing, even in dark.
Cyber : If plants slept in the dark, where the hell does your bud come from? Do you think it comes magically?
Not to be rude but if you have a grow thats kind of sad that you yourself do not possess such knowledge.

the plants droop because there is no light for the plant to grow towards.

watering and feeding should be done early in the morning, as that is when the plant's pores are open, and better able to receive nutrition ... conversely, evening is the best time to spray insecticides, etc., because the pores are closing ... on that note, before I knew the correct time to water, I always watered my tomatoes at night, (a no-no), and got the best tomatoes ever ... :wtf: go figure ... do what ya gotta do, to not get caught, that's more important ... :smokin:
