This is going to be a busy day for me, so I won't be able to respond much.

Here's the status of the tent climate:

Crazy week-long argument.
It's not light burn.
It's not a ph lockout.
If you were to defoliate that plant it will require less nutrients for the time being.
At this point of flower for soil if you try to correct it via root feeding you probably will cause a lockup. Let that plant thoroughly dry on the verge of wilting. Then water with quarter strength.keep tour lights full. The combo of defoliating, and letting the soil dry and full lighting will do multiple things. it will Raise the ppm of the container make feeder roots explore and the full lighting will make the plant process nuts quicker. The plant will only produce feeder roots for another week or so. Letting it fully dry is very important. The fox farms soil is heavy on amoniacle nitrogen(slow release. So it will still be there breaking down. Adding anything else to the root zone isn't recommended. If anything continue foliar feeding for the next few days everymorning. I hope this helps

Here's a deep soil moisture reading. I've checked as I've used these meters, and the reading has to go down to 2 or below for the leaves to wilt. I angle the probe toward the center of the pot. It can get down to within 2 or 3 inches from the bottom of the pot. I think that's just about where it needs to be.

It's amazing how well these plants do with what seems to be very little soil moisture.

They're starting to drink more, so... maybe tomorrow. I'm not sure. I'll take soil moisture readings during the day. I'm looking forward to getting them on @GNick55's feeding plan.

You running an oscillating fan on port 2.
Yes. Is that a problem?

Port 1 has the inline fan. I have been waiting about three months for a humidifier I have on order. Other than that, I have two outlets. The controller has been so troublesome that I switched to Ink Bird controllers. I don't have an inline fan for them yet, though.

Get to 77°/50% transpiration will increase as well as nutrient uptake

No it’s not a problem at all. An option for you though. Since you have it set to run continuous on 2 you could unplug it from the controller and use the buttons on the fan if you want to change the speed. I found on my controllers the occillating fans I had connected were causing the controller to act up. It would do things like constantly get the wifi disconnected, speeding up and slowing down the fan. I just ended up disconnecting them and the controller settled down. You mentioned earlier you didn’t trust your controller because it was doing weird shit. That is why I asked.

Interesting. I'm having the same problems. WiFi disconnections is one of them. Sometimes the fan just doesn't run at all until I look at the app in my phone without touching anything in the app itself. I have a second fan in the tent that I can use. So, I'll try doing what you said.

I run inline exhaust & supply fans and humidifiers on mine. I haven’t had any issues with the those devices plugged in, but plug ac infinity occillating fan in no matter the port it goes bonkers. Try it, hopefully it helps you.

I did it already. It's unplugged and off. Instead, I'm running a no-name brand fan.

I have been thinking about adding a supply fan. I'm also supposed to get a humidifier from them someday. They charged my card for it in November.

Now I'm wondering what else this problem might have affected.

I think it’s some kind of hardware compatibility issue between the occillating fans and the controller. The fan works fine when unplugged from the controller. You just have to adjust the speed with the button on the back of the fan. I am not running a grow at the moment and plan to call ac infinity about this issue before I start my next grow. I’m sure they are aware of it. They just released a firmware update for the 69 wifi pro which is what I have. I haven’t let it install yet because I want to test it when I do to see if they fixed this issue before I call. Got like 4 of them and a couple 67’s.

Supply fans and humidifiers work great on the controllers. No issues with those.

This is very good information. Thanks so much! This is the only AC Infinity controller I have. For the most part, the company seems to have very good products. This problem was frustrating. I'll let you know if I have anything to add.
