 If using different reeds doesn't help, you can experiment by completely filling in the hole in the LH1 fingerplate with wax so it's flush with the top, then make a hole through it from around 0.7mm to 1mm and see if that helps. 
 
Do you have the LH1 fingerplate set up so it opens fully, or screwed right down so it only just moves by a tiny amount?
