What is RH?
Click to expand...
Relative humidity. It, along with temperatures, affects something called vapor pressure deficit. Measuring VPD gives you an idea of how well the plants are or are not transpiring. Transpiration is how plants move water and nutrients through their tissues, as they have no heart or lungs.

Probably is an excess of sodium and potassium. Got any pics of the plants?
Growers not only over water but they also tend to underwater.
Combine that with low rh and heat, then plants can uptake sodium very easily.
The drying out of the soil causes more sodium build up in the soil.

If you need me to frame and finish a grow room or green house now we are talking but if you want me to grow plants Ummm well that you may not be happy when you get a 1/4 to a half of my plant lol

You should be at 60%... 55% minimum.

40% is wicked dry for those temps.

This is true. Not sure why people make comments as that people that feel bad about themselves always try to bring others down. The self assured person doesn't make such comments, just saying!
