It looks like you aren't getting enough air to me. You probably need a higher flow pump. I would also back off on the nutrients a little and raise your pH to around 6. At 5.5 it is at is on the verge of being low and the plant will struggle to absorb nutrients like cal and mag when it is that low. And as far as your humidity, if your air pump is powerful enough it will push moist air up to the plant so it will help increase the humidity also. I would not increase the nutrients yet. At this point 1/2 strength of the manufacturers recommended dose will be plenty for them with the Flora. In general your plant looks to be in decent shape so it shouldn't take much to get her back in track. Good luck

I would have check my temps and my ph , if nothing is found on that side then I would have try to check the roots colors (' brown is roots rot ). I would have check the pump like others said.

The dropping of the leaves is lack of oxygen, check your air pump and / or stone. The burnt edges are due the solution been too strong, use half that strength

@Valhalla_Akbar hi mate they arent getting enough oxygen you can add more airlines but another trick you can use for immediate effect is to add some hydrogen peroxide about 2mls / L I cannot reccomend highly enough the use of a mycorrhizal product such as Great white for hydro grows 👌

you can lift the light a little higher ppm level can be in the 300s For moisture, wet a large towel and wrap it around the dwc bucket. it's a good app

Hi there , look like PH variations. it may also be the effect of low humidity, 30% is very little. in hydroponics I think it is the same as in the substrate at this stage the humidity must be 70% -80%. mainly the automatic plants to have a faster growth. good luck mate
