Young plant seems all over the place, preventing canopy penetration. Should I trim any leaves to open it up? Under 400w HPS w/ supplemental lights.

Also concerned about leaves curling inwards, probably low humidity (35%)/high temps (80-87)

No, you shouldn't cut off any of the leaves. The leaves are what convert the light into energy (photosynthesis).

If you chop off the leaves, it'll stunt the growth of the plant, plus force it to spend time healing.
