45 to 50 is good. upper 50s or even mid 60s will be better as there will be less transpiring and you can keep lights closer. Not sure if it's relevant to you but if you ever run LEDs it's something to keep in mind :D

Ok I was under the understanding that I wanted my humidity at 40 ish during flower so I don't get mold in buds and make it hard for powdery mildew to grow

Sure those are the "playing it safe" numbers. If the room is clean and you have fair air exchange you won't have trouble with mold in the 60s% RH and the plants will be happier. But it probably doesn't make a huge difference and I'm too anal about this lol

Yeah man, I'd agree with that bro.

The higher the humidity, the less transpiration, the more Co2 from the air processed ;).
I know of two grows right now flowering at 70% RH, no problems at all, BUT one of them has started to complain about the efficiency of her Carbon Filter . . . . . . dependent on make of filter, I reckon some become pretty useless over 70%-80% RH ime

I've always kept my RH around the 50% mark, unless I'm propogating seeds or cuttings then its 90 odd % (don't use a CF for prop or bringing seeds on)

Probably another two weeks. But don't take my word for it. Keep an eye out for things.

Yo sorry bro, sat on my couch with some Blue Cheese from a pal, crashed for 5 hours . . . . . lol

So the GDPs didn't take to the Strawberry Cough diet as well, there is some burning on the ends of the leaves, I'd be tempted to say the Purps could just do with water, but then there are indications it might be hungry for K, there are a lot of the fan leaves yellowing on the edges and scorching, need to decide if the scorching is burn or the scorch you get from not enough K, close up of GDp's top fans that are yellowing please bro . . .

SC . . . . from now on, 1.5tsp of Flora Nova Bloom in the 2.5 gallons you're giving her each time
Try a close to max strength Ripener. When was she fed last??

As we've only really just started to dial her in, I do think we can afford another 10 to 14 days . . . . . half everything on the GDP though I reckon . . .
