Canoeing leaf

My girls are early in flower, and overall healthy. The last couple of days the leaves have been praying hard. I just noticed a couple had a slight canoe happening.

I'm thinking either they are getting a little dry (started giving them a drink daily, but are getting very dry by the next day)
Or heat (they are getting a little warmer than they have been, but still very much within range)

Any thoughts?

Leaves pointing up don’t mean dry. It can be light avoidance. Or seeking light. But not dry. They go the opposite direction then.

Thanks harley. Not so concerned about them pointing up. If you look at the large fan leaf in this pic, you can see it concave like a taco.

I just did a Google on the old interwebs and one guide mentioned high humidity, for the last three days here it has been warm, wet and stormy, and the humidity has climbed into the 90's when the lights come on. I might run my extraction fan while the lights are off to keep it down a bit

I'd get on that high RH right away and run the extraction fan 24/7. Get that under control before your buds get any bigger. What are your temps like in there? How is the air circulation within the tent? Be sure you have enough fans so the air is constantly moving each leaf slightly, and be sure there is a breeze under the canopy. Since your RH is high, air circulation becomes even more important.

I think your plants are doing fine, just dial in the environment a bit more, and don't be afraid to defoliate a little underneath the canopy-take of lower leaves and buds that get no light-this will help reduce the RH too.

Thanks Rurumo.
Temps are good, sitting 24 - 26 Celsius (77f)
The circulation is good when I have the fans going, but had been switching them off during the dark period.

I just added another small fan below the canopy. And will leave it and the extraction going 24/7 from here out. I will do a light defoliation tonight if I don't have to move everything. (I have water lapping at my doors, and if it gets much higher, I will be flooded, crazy rain today)

Sounds good, let us know if anything changes, and good luck with that flooding situation!
