What is the desired humidity for flower? Right now I'm at 40. Will I need to lower that?

Any question I have I'll just ask on here. The community on these forums is awesome. I never feel dumb asking a question, because no one makes me feel that way. It's all positive support on here! So no, I don't need the cannibible, but thx tho. I'll be putting up pics when I get home. It's been, I think, 2 days since my last pics. Quite some growth in the past 2 days!!

Ok day 19! So far plants seem healthy, except for one small thing. My Northern Lights has been a bit droopy lately. I really dont think I am over watering because I let the soil pretty much dry out before watering again. And i doubt nute burn because im using seedling recommended doses still. It looks a little droopy and has black blotches on the lower leaves and now the bigger leaves are starting to get it a bit. Its the plant on the left in the group shot. Its not pH i balance my pH to around 5.8. All other plants are standing upright and happy and I do same routine for all plants. hmmm...

I thought soil PH needed to be higher than that.

I'm almost done with my first grow, all I used is FF grow big and big bloom, maxicrop seaweed, and molasses. I use the maxicrop as ph up and the nutes and molasses as ph down, the stuff in bottles scares me for some reason. Dumping an acid or base into the water seems scary!

If it were ph, my other plants would be affected as well. All 3 plants are exploding with growth

It's technically a 'hand fed hyrdo' system because coco is not soil.
I wonder if the NL is hungry or maybe needs more water than the others.

When I water, I just dump water at the base of the plant and around that area. I water enough, but I'm not filling the pot with water so that it drains or anything. It's such a young plant, I just find it hard to believe its underfed

Damnit! It was light burn! Woke up this morning to a set of leaves half black and curling upwards! Not sure why the northern lights are so sensitive to the light because the other plants look great.. Anyhow, had to move the light up a few inches, which sucks. Damage is minimal.

Nute burn starts at the edges and turns yellow. The leaves curled upwards and started darkening. This points to light burn. Many people veg with hps lights. I know flouros are a better spectrum but hps works too. They have been growing very fast

I moved the light up, and fed them last night, but my NL is still droopy! The new growth looks good, it's just droopy! Both other plants are perfect. Anyone have any ideas?

I burned the shit out of my autoflower and it drooped for a few days being all sad :'( but after a few days the brownish spots turned yellowish green and it kept growing. I'm using CFLs though and I have no experience with hps, just sharing my opinion! Good luck, I hope you figure it out.
