The one on the left is white truffle and the one on the right is purple daddy. Both were planted on 6/27/25 I’m worried there are some health issues and I’m worried the one is budding too early. Please give me any pointers I’ve watch tons of videos and I’m still always looking for more information on how to take better care of my plants. Temperature stays between 74 to 80. Ph balance between 6.0 to 7.0. Humidity between 60% and 65% the light I try to keep it about a foot apart and 16 hours of light and 8 or darkness. I bought my seeds from ILGM.com as well as their nutrients. I was told the best time to water them is when the first inch of soil is dry. The the soil I’m using is Foxfarm happy frog.

It’s a suctioning cup that you can stick to the wall that I just left hang near the plants

They look slightly over watered and your humidity is too high for flowering.

I haven't grown in soil for years, but I would never use the first inch to determine if they need water or not. Pot sizes vary, so 1 inch will not be a good general rule. You want to base it on weight. Your fabric pots have nice handles on them, so give your plants a lift and get a feel for the weight when it is truly dry before needing to be watered.

As for humidity, you currently have it at early veg levels and your plants look to be in early flower. Lower your humidity to around 50%.

Edit: You can calculate your VPD using a calculator and chart like found here. If you don't know your leaf temp, you can just set it to 2 or 3 degrees below your air temp.

Why would you want to stick something to the wall, really interested thinking there some piece of kit or something I don't have or know about?

Is it part of the led light maybe?

It’s to help keep the cords out of the way it’s a spider farmer grown tent

Ok cool I'll look out for them in the future thanks.

Only thing I can see is maybe your fan is blasting the tops of the plants a little too much.
