I'm pretty sure the answer is you can't. Plants are plants and they drink when they need to. It's like shoveling hot dogs down your child's throat after feeding them a 5-course dinner. They drink when they're thirsty and when they're not, they don't.

this is the issue i have flood tables.... in veg they would eat every day, then i flipped them in to bloom so i lollipopped them .. and now in bloom they cant drink everyday,, i dont know if its due to the lack of foilage caused by loollipopping and/ or less light ( 18 hours down to 12)???

Dont be watering every day , If your wanting to water your plants on same days then just leave all plants unwatered until the last one has dried out , i would of thought would only be a day or two between drying out time . Then just have watering cans sitting in grow room and when you come to water use a 1 ltr bottle as a measure , that way you know how much each plant is getting . My plants get watered every 3-4 days ith 2 ltrs . If you water every day you ill cause root rot as you have to let soil dry out ,

Rockwool cubes? I don't think you need to water those daily, but hydro is not my forte. Rockwool holds a lot of water.

Or are they a different kind of cubes?
