Yeah, really sounds like cool humid conditions and that will slow a plant down quite a bit. Make sense why theyāre quite a bit behind for a month of being above ground. Try to get that temp up and thatāll probably keep the humidity from shooting over 70-75%. Much more than that is a bit much for getting roots to spread out and stuff. Should be a super easy fix for you. Give them a week with better environment and theyāll explode with growth. Best of luck!

Looks like too low tempsā¦ causing lack of uptakeā¦ I went through this a ton with my ledā¦ I upped temps and MG a little and it took offā¦ good luck
I run 85 degrees F ā¦ never lowerā¦ those night temps matter as wellā¦ I added a heater for it

1100 ppmās sound high to me, I feed Peters at half of that, myself.
Iād flush them, and cut the food in half, myself. Since your PPMās went to 1250, the nutrients are accumulating, not being used. Well in my small mind anyway! Hope you find their sweet spot.

@Terpsnpurps you run 85 with lights out too? I run about 82. Temps slowly drop to 70-72 by the time they come back on.

To me, they seem just a bit over watered.
Iād reduce the light to 18/6 for a day or two and cut back on the water a little bit n see if they perk back up.

How much will chlorinated tap water hurt them if i mix up a new batch without letting it sit 24 hrs?

It wonāt hurt. I run tap water with chlorine and chloramine.
Edit. I use rockwool, fwiw

If it was gonna cause harm im sure rockwool would be worse since it soaks it up ?
It wonāt hurt the plant but it will kill all the good microbes .
If you have an fish tank pump and a air stone
5 gallon in a bucket add the air pump with stone and 20 minutes later no chlorine

No biggie
Later make a compost tea and use black strap molasses and itāll help to put all the good stuff back in the soil
