First time grower,need help understanding what's going on with my plant.
On 3 of my leaves (3 week old plant) there's a little upward curling around edges and 1 of lower leaves tip, is curled upward.
My second younger plant has got half of 1 leaf lightly colored and on a separate leaf, there's a stripe..
Pictures are attached of plants , setup and temp/humidity conditions.
Recently adjusted distance of light to top of plants at 20inches.
315 watt CMH 18/6 schedule. Organic soil and water system has reverse osmosis, ultraviolet treatment and charcoal filtration. Nothing more. :)

They look pretty good to me I wouldn't worry about the stripe on the leaf I believe they call that a variegated leaf.
Any recommendations on when and if I should reduce the distance? Also forgot to mention they're white widow autos.
 
I would say you're off to a good start. If possible you could raise your humidity a little bit but it'll do fine just like it is to.
How would I raise the humidity? Greatly appreciate your knowledge!

I think they look great. The light may be a little high. Not real familar with this light thou. I use my hand to gauge the heat.
 
Welcome OIFVET, They sure look nice! I've grown with that light and think maybe 24 to 30 inches for now. Stay at 20 if you have no issues, they do look happy to me. Keep your eye on them is all. That's very powerful and excellent full spectrum light.
Thank you for the feed back!

In a state where weed is legal except to buy...so needing to make sure my babies grow to produce :) Thank you for feed back!

So I lowered my babies from 20inches down to 30 because top leaves started taco'ing. She's much happier and growing quick. Wondering when and IF you think I should go to 12/12? I prefer quality over quantity.
Temp is between 73-77 degrees and humidity is between 49-53. When would you say I should lessen the humidity as to avoid mold? Have couple pics attached...don't know if she's starting to flower yet or not and wondering what those crystals might indicate?

Now I don't grow autos. Your schedule will work start to finish. Some auto growers will run longer on cycle like 20 -4 but I would stick with what your doing. A big thing with autos is to stress them little as possible in hopes of getting the most growth possible before it starts flowering. Just keep doing what your doing.
Thank you...any idea what those crystals on top of plant might indicate? Ready to smoke those leaves lol
