High Humidity during Flowering?

My humidity was running 75% at night and 55% day. I switched to flowering about a week ago, and it was pretty much 2 days after she started going a little limp in places and was dropping leaves several a day) that were otherwise healthy the day before.

I have since got the humidity down at night with a dehumidifier, but unsure if what was happening to the plant was directly related to the high humidity or something else entirely?

that humidity is not THAT high....thats actually about right(the day humidity anyway)...but it shouldn't cause lots of leaves to die and droop...my night time humidity goes up to 75-80% and its never been an issue...yeah its more likely to have mold as it grows...but meh i'll figure it out :D

I'd say something else is going wrong other than the humidity...

It has to be something else, the only problem with high humidity is mold, mildew, and bud rot.

hi humidity will close stomata and cause or may cause a droop to. but droop can be from to dry as well. need to keep humidity toghter also. shouldnt be moving more than about 5% from day to night. tighter we can keep this the better food processes happen. try for 55% for flower.
most cases the droops are from watering issues. either to much or not enough

I did veg this plant for about 2 months before switching over to 12/12, but i'm in a 3 gal. pot yet. Could that be the problem then? Being a week into 12/12, is a up-canning in order?

How many weeks are you into flower. If you are only in a 3 gallon pot and you veggged for 2 months, you may be rootbound. Only suggesting because it happened to me in a small pot from lon vegg

Sticky, well it has actually been vegged for 10 weeks, and 1 week of flower. I thought I might be able to make it in the 3 gal., but thinking you may be right. I should have know better. :evil:

Going to have to put her in a 5 gal. tomorrow. Think I should switch her back to vegging after the transplant to hopefully get her going good again and then switch back to 12/12?

Going to actually start a more specific thread to hopefully get some other input.
