@JinksyGrows thanks for the answer buddy I’ve decided it was a combination of thing causing my twisting, light was a little close (28inches) raised it to 30, temperature was too high reduced from 30-25c, RH% was slightly low raised from 65-70 and my soil was slightly hot for my seedlings. Oh or my well water has 150-200 Ppms of something in it, could have been the water was a little hot also .... my god the variables with a grow set up could and might drive a guy insane.... seemed to work though they look way less stressed out lol

@SirDillton, Anytime man. I get this at least once per grow (so far) when I'm trying to acclimate the tent. Fickle little girls man. And the variables! HA! I know man, it can drive a guy up the wall. Change one thing and you have to adjust or change 5 other things. When it's locked in, the girls are acclimated and you can just site back on watch...it's a good feeling and you'll hit that right away, if you already haven't 👍. Good luck in the coming days man. Happy grows 😀 Edit: I can't edit the answer once I post it, but I'm glad you saw that my "30cm" meant 30 inches, haha. 30 cm and they would be cooked. Thanks for seeing through the spelling mistake!

Btw, I run a closed system to. I have an 8' x 8' x 9' grow room I built. It's completely enclosed with AC/heat, dehumidifier, CO2, fans and air purifier. Peace

@SirDillton, temps will range between 72-83F as the room cools and then heats up between A/C cycles. 78F is ideal. Peace and health bro.

What do you keep your leaf temp at roughly? I think mine like it best 23-24c 74-75F range @Smowkabowl,

@SirDillton, PS: don't worry too much about all this VPD. First learn to control your environment especially during the different stages of growth. For instance, temperature/RH during germination and seedling is higher than during flower, so minor adjustments to those controls are needed through a plants life cycle. Once you master that you can start tweaking for VPD. VPD is very challenging without a professional set up, but you can always try to get close just like I use CO2. It's more like a supplement rather than a steroid. Besides, it seems every VPD chart I've seen has different numbers and ranges. You don't need VPD to grow kick ass buds. Fahrenheit 78 and RH 50% and you will grow just fine. Peace

Seems like you know what you're doing. You want to see something interesting, check out my grow with purple kush auto. Maybe its a pheno ..... compared to the others in the tent, my purple kush is the smallest plant, but it does seem like its getting better. I am changing water today, so I will make sure it starts the week with a good dose of cal mag and low pH. I will keep checking, but I am glad you have several of the same plant and you have that coloring in a couple, it might not be a deficiency...... You plants look nicer than mine right now..... im a bit more motivated to sit and stare at them to see if they grom more ;)

@SirDillton, Sounds good, the branches/leaves coming out from the bottom node were bugging me because they changed the angle the leaf was coming out and it was pressing it down, onto the pot brim and growing medium.... took those off. I will look to see if I can bend some stuff to help the top/canopy before I trim. Both Autos have a similar situation, so I can be conscience of LST over trimming.

I would just cut a couple leafs off every 2-3 days if I were you, it can really stress an autoflower out when you chop a bunch of leaves off, I’d try tying him down first before defoliation. @Fleetwood,

I see the light green plants stayed light green. Mine has too, and also stretched very sativa like, even though leaves look broad. The buds are dark purple and some parts of the leaves have begun to turn purple, I will highlight it when I take pictures tomorrow. I hope my buds get as completely purple as yours.

Yup they have green buds too. It looks like your auto purple kush is starting to turn purple now. @Fleetwood,

This is ashiny well preapred and well setup grow. Girls look very good. The temperature would be better under 28 degree. you can rise the humidity so they can bear the warm temps better I let you a VPD chart here so you con look wich rh you should achieve http://www.just4growers.com/media/23631/vpd_2degree.gif

Yeah I was trying to push the limit on higher temps to see if they had a little bit faster growth out of the gate but it looks to me that it’s just stressing them out! Back to 24-25 c see if they relax a little bit. I find seedlings have a mind of there own sometimes though , as long as there green and growing they usually pan out just Fine! @Mrs_Larimar,
