RE:[APD] Dosing when lights are on or off???
I dose at night. I though plants grow at night, dose this mean they take up ferts at night? And I've read that the lights might break up the iron bond? I don't know. I don't think it is critical, just my opinion.

Hi,
I dose ferrous gluconate on a daily basis (Same iron as in Seachem
products). Plants consume the thing in a matter of few hours. But work
schedule sometime doesn't allow me to see my tank when lights are on.
So my
question is - on those busy days - does it make sense to dose at
midnight??
I mean - would plants consume it and then use it for photosynthesis the
day
after? What's the ideal strategy? Dose the minutes lights are on?
VRK.
