Can anybody tell me why I’m having a little bit of leaf cupping? The temperature of the leaf is 77 degrees and it’s a white widow xtreme autoflower. It’s in a 5 gallon pot with 30% ffoc, 40% biobizz light and 30% pearl light. 2x 600 hid and 2 x t-5 and a 30 watt full spectrum led. Any thoughts would be appreciated? I’m thinking maybe wind burn cause I did have the fan to high?

Stick a wet towel in there to raise the humidity if you haven't got a humidifier. Not dripping wet, just come out of the washer kind of wet, replace every time it's dry.
How long ago did she poke her head out of the soil?
It’s exactly 15 days old. Thanks for the advice! Much appreciated, got tired of buying crappy over priced weed and so hence grow my own

Same here, you got a spray bottle for misting
Yeah I use it when there little seedlings starting out. What I do is mix the soil and ph the water and soak the entire pot and let it sit for a day and then germinate right in the pot

If your humidity is that low, mist the leaves too. In veg, they also drink through them + it gets your humidity up which is an added bonus, do the towel and mist now. Get back to me in an hour or two they, should be sorted.
Don't over-mist, just a few fine drops on each leaf

Looks good! You the man! Thanks. I’m trying to learn as I go along. Tomorrow I’ll send you pics of my set up. Got to rearrange it...lol. See what ideas you have.

Question .... All those lights you mentioned .... are those ALL over this one plant ?
Autos HATE ANY KIND OF STRESS - Heat , Overwater , Overfeeding , etc.
Looks like a heat issue ... But .... I would keep some PH 6.5 water in a spray bottle.
Mist her lightly , and watch if she comes around ... She maybe transpiring too quickly.
One light will grow an auto ... T5 or hid .
Keep her on a water diet ( as FFOF has Nutes in it already. ) for a couple weeks , til she gets her " legs ". Stick to one light cycle ( 18/6 or 20/4 )... Autos DO NOT NEED FLIP TO 12/12.
Other than that she is looking good.

Get yourself something like this bottle hunidifier works like a charm!! Only thing is you don really have control but there is levels of intensity which it stays between 55 and 65% RH. (veg stages)

No, 9x4 tent with 6 white widow autos and 2 six shooter autos. Wanna add more plants but gotta rearrange the fan too the cool tubes cause the way I did it I can’t raise or lower my lights and what’s weird that’s the only plant with cupping the others look ok.
Could you please tell me how to make one of those bottle humidifiers?? Thanks
