The directions are kind of vague willing to help me out on how much I should use? Says to start doseing 1ml per 4 gallons of water capacity. How much should I add if I only want to bring up the levels 40mg/l- 80mg/l?

1ml per gallon will raise alkalinity by 0.74maq/liter (2.07dKH)

Should I do that tonight or in the early morning before the lights come on, while levels are lower?

PH jumps when you add it. I add mine whenever lol. I dont think it really matters.
the way to figure out how much to dose take ur total water volume you think you have and devide it by 4, the number you get is how many mL to dose.
