Sorry for all the questions and posts...but this is only my second grow, and my first GOOD grow, so I'm just paranoid a little lols.
Anyway, this plant has grown incredibly fast...its only a week old in this picture (well, a week after its first 2 leafs were out). You'll notice the leafs are curling up a bit.
At first I thought temperature, but I don't think thats it because all my other plants are doing just fine. Then I thought over watering, but thats not it, because it was bone dry this morning.
Under watering?
Sorry for the shit pictures. I can't find the fucking charger for my digital cam
-------------------- Of course it's happening inside your head.
Why should that mean it isn't real?
That looks like heat stress to me. 85 is still on the hot end of the spectrum.
Though, apparently under watering can cause similar looking symptoms.
Have you already watered it? If not I'd say give it a bit of water and see what happens.
It could also be signs of a K deficiency but I doubt it.

Yeah, I just gave it a good watering after I took that picture. I also cracked the door a bit more and turned the fan on 2 instead of 1. I just don't know why this is the only plant effected if thats what it is?
I think I'll also transplant it pretty soon. Maybe later on today.

I'm sure your plant will bounce back very soon. It looks pretty healthy in the pic and from the sounds of things, it's probably just under watered.
On a side note, you really need to get a soil PH tester or at least a tester for the water your giving your plant.
This is imperative and not a joke. You need to know the PH and if need be it must be corrected. Otherwise, I doubt the success of your grow.
The wrong PH will not only stress out your plant but it can lead to nutrient lockout.
As you can see, the PH must be within a certain range for the plant to be able to consume necessary nutrients. Not knowing the PH of your water and soil and growing cannabis is like flying a plane blind. Sure, your in the air and everything seems fine now but... you can't see where your going and as for the landing... good luck.

I think it's safe to assume he doesn't know exactly, but it's a bit irrelevant really. A little bit of humidity is good for the foliage because plant's generally cannot assimilate water fast enough in the roots to counter the effects of high temperature. However, generally - large amounts of humidity results in lower production of resin, so it's actually good to keep the humidity very low.
His plant is showing possible symptoms of heat stress, however as he indicated it's not that hot. 85F, is still on the hot end of the spectrum but as he also said, none of his other plants are showing the same symptoms.
Therefore, it's definitely not an issue with humidity.

Right I know what your saying. I'm saying I don't think humidity alone will do that to a plant.
Under watering can apparently cause the same effect.
