Feed in hours for recreation (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nourish

'feed' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'in hours for recreation' is the wordplay.
'for recreation' indicates an anagram (I've seen this in other clues).
'in'+'hours'='inhours'
'inhours' is an anagram of 'NOURISH'.

(Other definitions for nourish that I've seen before include "support" , "encourage growth" , "Provide with sustenance for growth" , "Feed, nurture" , "Feed - encourage to develop" .)
