I can now admit I grow, here in OHIO!

Humidity much too high. Never flower higher then 55-60% and get air moving in your room!

Yea leaves touching medium is just a pandora's box you do not want to open.

Has anyone noticed a connection with Light Bleaching and mold showing later?

I never grew in coco and a rockwool cube may be your answer, but from my experience rockwool cubes can be oversaturated with water as well so you kind of have to get the saturation part down. I go with the rapid rooters because they dry a bit more evenly and hardly if ever become over saturated...

Are you adding nutrients?

what's the initial soil mix?

No, actually they work great, if you know how to cure.

I would put the water temp at 68 degrees and get the PH to 5.8. That would create the most dissolved oxygen in water while putting your PH at optimal levels for nutrient uptake for hydro. Increase your C02 to 1200-1500ppm lights on. All this will be for nothing if you cant raise your room temps...

I think your set up will have several counterproductive issues as many have already stated. While using the LED's you want your rooms ambient temps to be between 80-85 degrees Fahrenheit. While running CO2 you could definitely get away with 85-90 degrees Fahrenheit. Unfortunately, it looks like...

If you're watering with nutrients, switch to coco as fox farm ocean forest has its own nutes.

what's your room temp?

Never had an 8ft T5. Just 4ft with either 1 bulb (starter4x), 4 bulb(1x) or 8 bulb(3x). All of which are collecting dust in my basement. I could not imagine trying to handle a 8ft long fixture haha
