how close are your lights?
how old are the plants?
what leaves are going bad?
what type of lights?
85 should be ok for temp.

cfl's are cooler then hid. i was burning leaf's with them at that age. the higher watt cfl's give off a bit to much heat for the youngsters. try 5" and if you can vent the light you'll be ok where you are. just my thoughts. I went therw this about a month ago.
