Best time to set drip system auto watering
Im starting flowering next week! Im growing 18 plants in 3 inch rockwools in a 9 gal tub. What are the best times to set for watering during flowering? I heard its good to water the plants when the lights are off so they could saok up all the water they need for when the lights come on? any truth to that.
My lights are going to be off during 12am to 12pm. Right now the water comes on at 845am and 420pm and everytime it waters the PH needs to be changed. But the probelm with that is from 845am to 12pm I wont be able to change the PH because the lights are off. I'm thiking about starting watering right before the lights come on at 1155am and change the later watering to 730pm or should I set watering a couple hours before the lights turn on so the rockwool could soak up all the water it needs for when the lights come on? any suggestions.
thanks, I hope it makes sense

Do not water while the lights are off. BAD IDEA. The plant needs complete relaxation during its downtime. Feeding is for the daylight hours...best for bud production.
Are you putting your plants into 2 gallon buckets with drip system? What is your layout? Post a picture so I can comment on it.
Just be aware that ebb and flow tray with drip is a bad idea. You need to have a way to move your plants around a bit. Just my thoughts from my drip system grow experience.
:D
