Times of Day for 4-Tube Cortisol Test?

What times during the day should I take the saliva samples? I have a kit from Labcorp but theirs is keyed for taking one sample a day, while I want to do 4 samples in one day. I'm not sure when during the day to take each sample.
 
8am
Noon
4pm
Midnight

And it’s best to order this separate from blood labs. Otherwise they won’t take the bloods until your samples are returned.
 
4-Tube Collection (saliva) : When using this method, collect a sample immediately upon waking, 30 minutes after waking, then at noon or evening, and night.
