Humidity issue?

photo 2 - Copy (1).jpg35 day's old. My tent is constantly vented and the humidity never gets past 10%. Would that be the cause of the limp wrinkling leaves?

It looks more like over watering are you letting them dry up between waterings (pot gets lite)
10 percent is pretty damn low

I would try a diffent meter as I find it hard to bleave your humidty is 10%

Watering a little too often would cause the leaves to drop

What your canopy temp ?

My meters are shit and I'm sure don't read right(chinese clone shit) On average about 76/78 give or take a couple. It will read humidity if I mist in the tent.

And its not that hard to believe the humidity is less than 10% as the tent is constantly vented so no moisture. and this I am certain is the problem but as I stated already I am open to suggestions.

The plants are in 3 gallon buckets I water them two liters every third day and one liter a week when feeding so 5 liters of water a week.

I have ordered a couple got some timers for the fans as well. This has never concerned me as all my other grows were the same and turned out well but you know you want the plant to look good.
Thx.
 
If your tent is at 10 percent humidity your plants leaves will dry out and curl and when they curl, they will curl up from the sides. Almost same affects you get from having to much wind or air moving in a small tent. It happens all the time in my 4 by 4 tent when I flower. This damage will cause the leaf to loose its ability to photosynthesize you need at least 35 percent humidity, 45-50 is perfect.

That's really wild that you are able to keep your RH that low. Of course I live in the Pacific Northwest where humidity is always 100%. I'm always fighting hi humidity in my tents.

I also doubt 10% RH....fellow Canadian here enjoying our typical dry winters and I'm sitting at a low of 20-25% RH.

Bumps up to 40-60% as soon as my plants are watered though
