Do I up the humidity on Day 18 or Day 19

[madelynbelle]

I am on Day 18 or it will be exactly 18 days down to the hour at 3pm. Not that I am keeping track or anything. Do I up the humidity at 3pm today and take them off the turner or do I wait until 3pm tomorrow when they will be exactly 19 days to up the humidity. Or am I just being too nit picky. Can you tell this is my first hatch.

I usually up mine the night of the 18th day.

Edited to add that I only up my humidity to around 55% so if you use higher humidity I would wait til tomoorow morning maybe.

I always do mine in the evenings of day 18 when I take them out of the turner or stop hand turning. Candle one last time and add water to bump the humidity.
