1st Grow Ever. Fastbuds Forbidden Runtz - Days 17-19

Day 17 (7/8/21)
Light - 26" / 20/4 on/off / 60% on dimmer (35k Lux)
Conditions - Started day 80F/61% - Then installed AC unit and conditions changed to 76F/57%
Feeding - 2nd feeding for 2nd batch of nutes in AM. Same amount of water as day 16.
Per gallon: 3ML CalMag / 2.5ML Micro / 2.5ML Grow / 1ML Bloom / 1.2ML Rapid Start - PH 6.2/PPM 570

Notes:
Drooping: Big plant was drooping in AM (too much heat overnight...which also dried out coco?). Gave them a strong feeding in AM. Plant was looking somewhat better in PM. Then installed AC unit later in PM and drooping plant got even more back to normal. Thinking that it may also be drooping somewhat due to the size of leaves too??

AC Unit and RH: Conditions harder to control after AC unit install. Running AC unit on "eco" mode so it only kicks on at certain temp. Temp gauge in AC unit slight off. Temp staying steady between 73-77 which I'm happy about (think I solved my heat problem)...but humidity alot harder to control now because of AC kicking on and just sucking all RH out of room. Also it's been very humid out lately. All those variables making RH control a little tough right now. Seem to be able to get it to stay between 45% and 67% (goes up and down between those numbers every 5 minutes)

Day 18
Light - 26" / 20/4 on/off / 60% on dimmer (35k Lux)
Conditions - 76F/57%
Feeding - 3rd feeding for 2nd batch of nutes in AM. Same amount of water as day 16 and 17.
Per gallon: 3ML CalMag / 2.5ML Micro / 2.5ML Grow / 1ML Bloom / 1.2ML Rapid Start - PH 6.2/PPM 570

Day 19 (7/10/21)
Light - 26" / 20/4 on/off / 60% on dimmer (35k Lux)
Conditions - 76F/57% - RH still being difficult. Everything a work in progress with AC unit in the mix. Will keep at it.
Feeding - 4th feeding for 2nd batch of nutes two hours after lights on. Tried to firtigate for first time. Gave both plants over 3 quarts of nutes to very little run off. Stopped because I was worried about drowning them.
Per gallon: 3ML CalMag / 2.5ML Micro / 2.5ML Grow / 1ML Bloom / 1.2ML Rapid Start - PH 6.2/PPM 570
Notes
Drooping:
Both plants drooping bad today. Conditions weren't bad overnight so I'm thinking they needed water. Gave them 3 quarts each in effort to firtigate for first time. Barely any run off. Would have tried to feed more to achive run off but I'm afraid I'm drowing them (especially after drowning my first batch). Will see how they look later and tomorrow. Might give them time to dry out but will keep top wet. So far this is by far the hardest part of growing...maybe I should have started in regular soil?
