    you should be fine without having to change anything. But if you wanted to, drop the temp by 5f, and then lower the humidity by 15%. This will promote quicker dense growth and extra resins.

    From what I read, 80 or a bit more is fine if you have sativa-dominant; but a bit high for indica-dominant.

    its a shorter plant but 80 degrees when light is on and 75 degrees when its off

    Thinking ... if you have central air, increasing the circulation between your grow area and the rest of the abode could lower the humidity as AC air is 30-50% humidity.

    Could you vent it towards your grow area when you're not around?

    Its in my room and the AC in across the house in the living room and that is about 30 feet away so i dont think it will be possible because its not central air. Any other suggestions?

    Apologies, but if those pics are of three-weeks into 12/12 it does seem like something is wrong. The tips are browning as if they have an excess of nitrogen.


    Sorry, I should remember this, XTC, but what light are you using and how far from the top?

    Those tips got burned well over a month ago in veg stage and my light is about 1 foot away with a 150watt hps light with all white grow box(inside). But it is growing like i was sayin earlier over and 1" a week. Thanks YO

    Myself, from what I've read I don't think humidity is much of an influencing factor as long as it's between 40-80%. Have read contradictory recommendations, especially when looking at different recommendations for specific growth periods.


    But a concept I've read which rings true is that if your plant experiences lower humidity than it's genes expect, it will respond by producing more sticky resin in an attempt to thwart water loss. Especially late in flowering.


    That said, if you left your A/C on when you're not at home, with one fan blowing out of the A/C area and one into your grow area, and all other doors between closed, you would push some of that lower humidity air to your plant.


    PS: Are you planning to clone or just let the one plant produce what it may?

    I cut the burned/browned parts of leafs off, per unanimous suggestion from the experienced people here.


    It really looks to me like your plant could use more vegetative growth in order to have enough leaf area to support growth of the potential buds.

    Yes i have took 6 clones off of her and they are growing good so far in my dome and its only been 4 days now. I think its wierd that it only has 3 leaves on each branch but idk. The clones i took were the ones with some brown on the tips and they are growing as far as i can tell. Thanks for helpin me out
