Hey everyone,

this is my first grow and I have a couple questions.

1) How does the plant look after 5 weeks?
2) Do the leaves look slightly droopy?
3) Should I prune any leaves?
4) Should I get a dehumidifier?

Here's some more information:
I'm growing an autoflower Gorilla Glue #4.
I'm running 18/6 light schedule (but the plant never gets true darkness because the 6 hours I turn the lights off, for heat reasons, it is during the day and the flaps are open during this time which allows some light from the room to seep in)
I'm watering the plant until I feel it's weight is around 1/3 of the weight of a fully soaked pot (recommended by the company that sold me the pot kit/mix)
Last time I watered was around 4 days ago (1.5 gallons). Soil still looks wet/moist underneath the top soil.
Humidity is around 60-70%, and the only way I'm able to bring it down is opening the main door for a bit.

I bought my grow kit from this link : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07RM6TVNS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I was also told my light isn't sufficient enough to power this plant, so I'm considering buying a 135 QB V2 LED light.

Along the way I ran into some issues, my fan leaves seem to have been developing brown spots. I was told on multiple forums that these leaves are just getting old as they enter the flowering stage.
Also my tent for around a week was hitting around 87-89 degrees on peak days. Over the last 3 days I turned the AC on to 75 and the tent averages between 77-80 degrees now but never higher. I figured this was the reason those leaves developed the brown spots.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Would hate to lose this plant, but also totally okay with it as long as I'm better prepared on my next grow!!

Looks good but you need more light 135 added to what you have might be enough.

Thanks for the reply!!! i ended up pruning her "dead" leaves. Do you recommend doing anything at all? In another forum I was told my UFO light only pulls 100 w. I purchased a 260W QB V2 RSPEC LED KIT from HLG as a result just now.

Shes flowering already by the way.
Appreciate it! I purchased a 260w QB LED light from HLG so going to switch over to that because someone told me the actual rating of my light is 100w not 300w.

Also I just did some light pruning to the old leaves that were dead or had browns spots (all below midpoint on plant). This is what she looks like now.
