low humidity or over watered?
from just looks alone i would say it is a Magnesium problem, is the entire plant like this?
are you using distilled or RO water without calmag?
whats the PH?

low humidity or over watered?
Cheers Invision for your time in replying.
Im sure it aint mg mate,its only the top fan leafs,ive got epsom salts at the ready tho just incase.
Waters straight out the tap,i dont bother with my ph in compo as it buffers itself.
Tommorow ill get a rh dial to check my humidity,ill post my results..fingers crossed.
Baldy.

low humidity or over watered?
The only thing I see is some edges curling up.
It could very well be from the light too close... check your RH and let us know though. Because low humidity and high heat would be a culprit there. What's your temp?
I don't see anything that even remotely resembles a Mg problem; you would have to get better pics of the leaf surface to diagnose that anyway.
It's not overwatering though no worries on that one.

As for the humidity ive stuck 2 10lte buckets of water in the room,but i cant see any difference on the dial,any advice is welcome and thx for your time again in replying,its very much appreciated.

well if you are bringing IN warm air, your total heat load is going to be quite a lot and what you should do is put an ac in that window. I mean, seriously you want to be in the high 70s and adding heat to air that is already a little warmer than you want, thats no good.
Once you fix that you should not have to really worry too much about humidity, just keep your plants properly watered.
Fo comparison, my flower room is 1400w and intakes from an air conditioned room inside my house. The exhaust is a 6" duct run through the hood of my 1000w and exhausted to yet a third room. the 400 is not cooled. Bringing IN air that enters at about 65 degrees, using an active boosted intake, things stay nice and happy even though the duct booster fan i have is a peice of shit that can't pull much air at all.
