What time of day should i water?

[AZreefer]

Is there a more benifical time of the plants day or night cycle to be feeding/watering?

I dont eat breakfast. I like a good lunch and a light dinner. But thats preference. So much of this hobby is about that huh?

I generally like to feed around 2-3 hours after lights on. That way they are pulling and eating the majority of the day.
Feed before lights out, your plants medium is just wet. The plant isn’t pulling any thing.
Just transpiring:

I water them near the midpoint of their light period, but I can take a couple of hours to get it done. I try to water slowly.

Same. If I were trying to grow while holding down a FT+ job while dealing with home and family, I’d probably dump and run. But being retired, I slowly pour a pint, then burn a bowl, then pour, then burn, etc. Takes forever. I love it.

I’m growing outside, and I try to water in the morning before it gets too too hot or at night.

My dads an organic farmer, before I cut him off he said he would water at those times to avoid evaporation.

It’s gonna be hotter than normal at home this week. so I’m probably gonna try and do a good soak in the mornings and probably another after lunch to get them thru the day.

I don’t know shit about growing inside lmao.

Not until after they are getting full sun for awhile when sap is flowing. I also like the soil to warm up a little. I use water at 50-55°F to ensure optimal dissolved oxygen levels and it's within the temperature range that microbes prefer. If a second watering is necessary, it is about that time of year, I try to avoid watering within 3 hours of sunset.
