Just a quick update....
Noticing some of the plants look to have branches and leaves that are falling to the floor and was wondering what to do with them. . .

They look almost droopy to me. I'm seen them do that at night after their lights turn off, but never mid-day like this. I see that on almost every plant even the stronger growing ones. Is this a sign that the plant isn't happy?
But, the other leaves all look healthy and growth is still good.

I also just realized something which I think may have been causing my problems. . . I have an exhaust fan setup that has a trigger set to turn on whenever temps get over 75F or RH gets above 65%. While I have oscilating fans in the tent I do not have anything else pulling in new air. I don't know how often my exhaust fan turns on and so now I feel like the problem is that I didn't have a constant exhaust fan pulling fresh air in from the bottom vents at all times.
Could that be what stunted the growth, or is that a normal kind of setup? I feel like everyone I read about has an exhaust fan always running to create a constant flow of fresh air from outside the tent. But I was basically looking at it like this . . .
Open bottom vents so new air from outside can come in
If temps or RH get above X% turn on exhaust fan
I also have a dehumidifer outside the tent in the basement just kinda blowing in new heated air whenever it was doing its thing for the basement. So, the tent was getting outside air shoved in from time to time, but that was probably once every 20 minutes.
Thoughts?
