Checking in With Some New PICS!!! of my first grow / humidity problem

Its been growing for 24 days now, got it in a 8" pot using TECHNIFLORA RFS nute kit, watering every 3-4 days and feeding every 3rd watering at a 1/2 dillution, i got 3x27watt CFL (300 walt equiv) 4,200 luminents on one plant, standard fan for ventillation, some of the leaves seem to currling down on the tips, and i saw it as a humidity problem and placed a wet rag around the base of the plant which has drasticly increased the humidity to about 60-70%, temp is 75-80, PH is around 6.5-7.5, ive taken pics to show the problem and to show the complex branching near the nodes, tell me what you ll think

Come on!!!

leaf curling can be a number of problems, but it does look like humidity. Leaves usually curl down when they are getting too much water, so you might want to lower the humidity instead of raise it. but I'm not positive

edit: people care and there's lots of helpful growers here, but you might be better off posting this in the Plant Problems forum. it's mostly newbs here that are on their first grow, experienced growers tend to read the other forums more.

i know that i havent been over watering, thats y i think it was humidity, how is she looking otherwise

She looks good. But for sure you are over watering. That is a classic symptom of over watering. Allow me to explain, for one, your humidity is way too high, this is causing the water to evaporate much slower. So, overwatering conditions exist because of your high humidity. Leafs do curl in many ways which can be clear indicators of enviromental issues. You want to encourage root growth, this is done by letting the soil get dry, this will cause the roots to grow out in search of water. It is easier to damage plants by giving them too much water, than it is to give them too little. Water only when you feel that the potters are very light. Watering every 3-4 days just because that is what you did last week, is not as good as watering your plants when they actually need it. In the future you might over fertilize and the only way to correct something like that is to look at your plants, realize what you are doing wrong, and then, not do it again. Listen to you plants and you will be very happy with the results. Don't be afraid to change your routine if you are not getting the right results. . Oh, the only thing that should not fluctuate is your day and night schedules. Everything else like, nutes, watering, humidity, and temperature, should revolve around how your plants look and should be adjusted depending on your plants responses. Good luck man.

plus one to six four, you really jsut have to remember that these plants are livings things and not software programs that run the same way everytime for everyone. they each need their own care and treatments.

I dont think its the humiodity, 60-70% is good for veg IF you have your air circulation done right. What are your EC (ppm) levels?Before and after watering?Do they have room to drain properly?
Have fun
