    Default Ideal humidity reading?

    Hi,

    Just wondering if there is an ideal humidity reading/range or is it more a case of being a bit intuitive and looking for signs of being too dry/humid?

    Thanks

    dont get me wrong if you runnin a humidifier then no harm in dialing it up a little, mine a 5litre, so just have it on the setting were i only fill it say once a day or so

    First year with a humidifier, I needed it with 25%, it only has low high setting, I had to put it on a timer even low was 2 much, 2 weeks after I bought it. Added an inkbird to stop fluctuations but it was going up after light off.
    I don't stress over it but need it under control for flower.

    Not using anything like a humidifier. The only moisture in the room should be coming from the water in the pots/plants.

    They are looking a bit better today, yesterday a lot of the leaves were curling quite significantly, but a little water seems to be perking them up.

    I do see a bit of yellowing of some leaves however, which I believe to be lack of nitrogen? But they are in light mix so I wouldnt have expected that to be a problem. Unless they are srill just getting settled in and some roots are not functioning properly.

    I dont know how these cutting were stored prior to me receiving them or for how long. I was given them in a cardboard box, with a few extras, but which wern't looking great i.e. snapped leaves etc.

    Its a nightmare this stage because it's like having a baby go straight into intensive care

    I'll just add: i dont know if this could be contributing to the situation but my ph is at 5.8, as recommended by a mate, but I have read online ph ranges from 6-7.5. I know a too acidic water can create a salty medium which is not desirable... The last time I grew there was no internet and simply followed a book called the bible, so what with the new technology and new lingo i am litterally starting from scratch again.
