  2. You should be dumping that runoff after it's finished running off. You should get a thermometer with humidity measure, I bought one from Home Depot for 11 dollars.
    Pictures would help a lot.
     
  3. more airflow. lots of it.
     
  4. Can alot of humidity give u root rot and do they feel crispy and curl from root rot
     
  5. I don't see why humidity would, but leaving those pots sitting in the container holding the run-off could. The drooping could be over-watering, due to sitting in that run-off water.

    What are your temps and ventilation like? If you had adequate airflow I don't see why you'd have a humidity issue of this extent. The heat could explain the other symptoms your plants are showing if that's the case.
     
  6. You need a heavy exhaust fan and an equally heavy intake fan as well as an oscillating fan to evaporate the extra water. Try to open up a hole in the tent while your waiting to have it all set up. I know how bad moisture problems can be, I'm currently fighting an impossible root rot problem in my DWC tent.

    Excess humidity/water can cause severe problems to a plants health. It's definately something you want to get checked out ASAP.
