can i wake them up?

i always wake up my plants when i spray them i dont do it too early maybe 30-45 min before the lights turn on but i turn on the regular light to do so. is that ok or should i wait till the light turns on?

are you flowering? and assuming you are imo it wouldt make to much of a difference but maintaining a good environment during the dark period is important too.

There should really be no reason to foliar feed, especially everyday. If u must, do it just before the lights go off to avoid the magnifying glass effect of the light burrning them. Only time I foliar feed is when I'm seein a defficiency that needs help quick.

yeah im flowering. i dont foliar everyday sometimes i use wet betty. but usually i spray avid cause of spidermites. i have it bad... and im scared if i spray right before the lights turn off there will be mildew

Do what u must. I'm not saying that its absolutly gonna burn holes in ur leaves, just that it can. Spider mites?..... that sucks man. I've been fortunate enough to not have had any bug related probs in my few grows thus far, knock on wood!

Shit, actually, I DID!!! On my very first grow, I had some black flies! But hell on my first grow I had so many other issues on top of that. When I first joined this site somone was sayin miracle gro moisture control i was using could've had the fly larva in it, then overwatering makes it worse and so on.... Swithched soils and it's been pretty good ever since. Anyhoo, Good luck!
