Wondering why this happens???

[Garcia909andres]

So recently I switched my grow tent to 12/12 from 18/6 2 weeks ago and everytime they switch on I noticed some water droplets on some of the main stems.
Could it be that it's getting to cold that the moister in the air is turning solid?
I currently dont have a thermometer in the tent, the tent temp stay moderately acceptable.
This would be my second run, the 1st one was trial and error with below average results.

Plants respire, I find water on the leaves all the time.

Seems to be high humidity you should check your temperature in the tent.

Get a temp gauge with a Humidity scale attached

and watch closely its an essential tool

I suggest its condensation

include a small 6" fan

Good Luck

Like Vostok said.

That condensation forms bud rot in the next few weeks.

Guttation...?

How is tent vented? Do you have a circulation fan?

When leaves overlap the transpired moisture is trapped and isn’t immediately evaporated and so touching leaves are sometimes wet. Never seen droplets on stem. Any condensation on tent frame?

I have a 6 inch hurracane 2 speed fan and plan to add another one. And there is about a hand full of leaves that overlap but there little to no water in between the leaves, and there seems to be some what seems to be dry water droplets marks on the leaves

Never heard of that, please enlighten me

Thanks for the reply, if you can point in the right direction on an ideal thermo to use that would be dope

Thanks everyone for the replys

Hard to find temp humidity gauges right now. None at two closest Walton stores.

Tariffs!

Its a simple term easily googled, all marijuana have hydrathodes

 

[Beachwalker]

So if I'm understanding you have no real extraction equipment so there's no real Exchange of air in and out of the tent right?

 

[hillbill]

Hydathodes.
