Chronic what do you think is going on? Fungus gnats? I've seen a few just didn't think a few could do so much damage to my leaves. First grow obviously, so I'm bugging the fuck out haha

The PH pen is a great suggestion, I'll definitely be picking one up in the near future. The nutrient def (assuming I have one) I'll be trying to fix this next watering. But I've identified some kind of but in my garden... Using the NO pest strips I caught some small fliers, but I can't tell if they're fungus gnats or root aphids. I don't see anything crawling on my soil/leaves, and I only managed to catch a total of three fliers. So at this point I'm worried I could be in for an aphid war my very first grow. I'm letting my soil dry out as best I can, but it may be getting out of hand already. New leaf formation is coming in mutated and twisted, growth has slown tremendously, a few plants have some bigger fan leaves with chlorophyll seemingly sapped from them.. I'm concerned

For ventilation and oder control I use a 4inch 235 cfm duct fan located at the bottom of the tent blowing in. I use high velocity 465 cfm inline fan with a speed control pulling air through a 24 inch carbon filter ducted to the outside of the tent. I am about 2 weeks from harvest and you can be in the same room as the tent and smell absolutely nothing! You could then duct it to a cloths dryer vent that expands in your window. You could have a cop standing outside the window a he would not have a clue.Having a problem with heat in the new tent guys. Can't get it below 82 degrees with the tent door open, and it skyrockets to 90 when the tent door is closed. My additional 6" duct fan is coming in the mail today or tomorrow, will that suffice or should I start looking into alternative cooling options? I also need to figure out a way to discretely exhaust out of my window, suggestions?
This is one reason I am using nutes from Advanced Nutrients. Their PH Perfect line really works. My well water is over 7 pH. After mixing nutes it is always 6.0 to 6.2. Never have to make adjustments to pH! On the expensive side, but, seems to be worth it to me.Can you leave the window open or cracked like a fan sucking air into the room? I have a bug trap and filter on all my intake fans so nothing extra gets in but if you keep the ambient temp around the tent cool you may have a better chance of getting it below 80, unless your temps outside exceed your indoor temp.
I'd also be careful about not checking your pH every time you water. Even if you keep it around 6-7 that's a pretty large gap which can later cause issues. If you were saying 6.4-6.6 I believe it would be a different story but fluctuation in pH can cause problems or if that one time it shoots way below 6 or stays above 7, no good. Take the extra time to make sure everything is on point, you will reap the benefits in the end.
