What causes twisted growth on new shoots? Is this normal or is there something behind this ?

There are a couple issues behind this. More info would be needed. However, it doesnt look bad at all. Keep going. How far is your light away? Looks too far

Growing in Fox Farm ocean Forrest. Watering with 6.5-6.7 ph’d distilled water. Havent feed any nutes yet. Have only given cal-mag once. Lights about 24” away on 50% so pushing around 150 watts currently (led). Temps between 72-78 F, humidity around 40% but trying to increase it to at least 55-60 for remainder of veg. Small fan inside not blowing direct on plant. Top leaves are tacoing a little.

Cool man. Good stuff. I would lower the light ~18-20in @150w IMO. Increase RH for sure like you said. As far as the leaves- Could be your environment, could be a seed pathogen that is slowly coming to light in the cannabis world. I would straight water it for the next 2 days & see what happens

Nah man. Not pest. But a fungus more like. Seed transmissible. They look nice bro. Dont worry. Keep chugging along. Itll fix itself with proper care

Bought the AC infinity cloud line and was able to set it up to allow my humidity to get to 65%. It turns on between 65%-100%. So now my humidity is constantly at above 60% and I get fresh air approximately every 3-4 minutes for a minute at a time. After just a few hours in the higher humidity the leaves already feel softer and not so brittle and the top growth is starting to straighten up!

That's great news. Your VPD is straightening out then. You don't want it constantly running?

Any fans for circulation?

If it constantly runs then I can’t keep my humidity above 40. Yeah I have a fan blowing indirect air and there’s a passive vent so I’m not worried about fresh air at all.

Oh. Thats weird lol. Must be a dry area? That humidifier has 2 different modes, although the buttons dont show it. The power button if pushed again should put it in high mode

Yeah I live in the High Desert. It stays around 20-30% humidity daily around here. Might get up to 40’s when we have some rain . I’ll check in to that thanks
