put your ferts in a sprayer and spray the leaves with the lights higher than usuall so you dont burn white spots on them

do it right when the light cycle starts for the day or close to

make sure you dont over-do it and use 1/4 strength nutrient concentration (the finer the mist, the better) you can also try using a wetting agent so the water particles dont coagulate. also spray on the bottom side of the leaves and the large fan leaves maybe wipe with a soft cloth after u spray to increase absorption rate.. good luck!

I'm using cfls and they dont really give off any heat. Will that make a difference at all? And also, I'm just gonna use carbonated water soo they can get more carbon should i just do it the same way?

Doesnt matter what kind of light it is. Water drops on the plant will magnify the lights absorption. thus burning the plant in the spot the waters resting on.
