Is there a difference when you apply fertilizer. Morning, afternoon, nite?

Hi
(IMO), I'd add the fert in the morning as the plants are
switching from giving off CO2 to photosynthesis for the
remainder of the day.

I add 2.5ml once a week in the morning when I do my weekly water change etc.

Near enough is not good enough, therefore good enough is not near enough, and only your best will do.

I vote for doing it right after your water change (whatever time of day that is). This way the plants get the maximum time to absorb it before you remove all the goodies in the next w/c.
