You can spray in early flowering but anything after 3-4 weeks depending on flowering time may impact how the bud tastes in the end. Spray around dusk when the plant isnt receiving any more sun, this gives the plant a solid amount of time overnight to let the neem absorb and dry without getting direct sunlight.

Looking good Gopedxr. Is cotton candy the same as candy kush?
Candy kush and cotton candy aren't the same nor related at all. Taste is similar but plant structure/bud type/strength are all very very different. Candy kush is a bigger plant that grows more like wreck while cotton candy grows big indica dom buds and is significantly stronger. Grown them both indoors in the same grow, cotton candy > candy kush by a lot. Although Candy kush isn't bad at all, it's just cotton candy is a true top shelf strain.

You will be really really really happy with the buds off of cotton candy. Make sure you cure them for a long time, it ages well. Definitely has +20% thc potential.

hey goped, have you looked into compost teas? id recommend doing one every so often. i use worm poop and Dr Earths #5 for mine. sometime soon im going to get alfalfa and kelp meal to add to it. maybe chicken poop too.

basically, its using the 'small' amount of bacteria in the compost to build a big population. you do this by putting it in water(no chlorine! distilled is a buck/gallon), and adding an air pump with an air stone. this provides oxygen for the aerobic bacteria. after 24-36 hours, the mix should be really foamy and will be full of bacteria. just pour it on the soil, or strain it and foliar spray on leaves. i do both =]

if your pump stops, anaerobic bacteria will take over and make the mix smell rotten. dont use this! even if you were to turn on the air pump again, some anaerobics can still survive in the presence of oxygen. the mix will smell earthy and sweet when youre doing it right

edit: the girls r looking good man! what do you do when you water? just pour around where the roots are? i think if u wet the soil too far away from the roots, itll stay wet forever and get all nasty.
have you supercropped them yet? do you plan on topping them too? LST? id start thinkin about some sort of cage that they can grow over, to help hold them up. maybe one of those ones for tomatos
