temps are 80 maximum but usually 75-78 , 25 - 30 percent rh (this is factor im kinda concerned about)

im running roots organic soilless in 5 gallon bags with flora duo nutes. Ph has been 6-6.5.

600 watt hps in a cool tube. tent is 4x4x7 and fan is ~400cfm

your R/H is fine. I grow mine is about 25% lol

What about nutes?
Air exchange?

Need a picture. they could be fine or not. I had a plant recently had a eagle clawing and they recovered in a week. It could be a sign of slight over nute or watering. There are a few factors that cause the eage clawing and most common is over nuting. Are your leave edges getting rown rust color?

no rust colored spots i switched to just water as a precautionary. will get pics tommorrow.

one thing is for a while they were getting a lot of side light from the cool tube only having a half relfector, maybe a reaction trying to get that light? anyway i rose light a couple days ago and still clawed.

Hmm I would say give them a good flush, maybe there is just salt build up. and their might be too much nitrogen

ive heard coco based soils are low ec so I wasnt orginally thnking that. Also a few of my lower fans are turnining yellow which would lead me to believe im not to high in N.

i also have had this problem which i put down to the temps getting very cold during lights out i installed a heater and had it come on when temps dropped and the claw sorted itself out within a few days it could be something else but i did record very very cold temps the first day i had the claw also it could be nitro overdose or even ph
