My lights turn on at 8pm they have been drinking the water quicker and quicker it seems. Before they took 2 2oz mason jars every 24 hours in 5 gallon pots And showed perfect amount of runoff. now they are not showing any and I have to give them another half a jar. I water them as soon as the lights turn on everyday wondering what u guys think I should do for a new schedule just entered flower 4 days ago don’t want to disturb them feeding during lights out.

Are you checking the pots and seeing if they even need water? You’re over thinking the measuring. Just stop the measuring. Lift your pot if it’s light it’s dry if it’s heavy it’s wet. It’s really that simple. Then when it’s really dry (stick your finger to the first knuckle) water until run off and leave them until they are light again. It’s really that simple.
