3 Weeks and they are really cracking on now. They are on day 16 in the photos and will update as the week goes along. Ive added a small dose of Plant Magic Magne/Cal today as the 3 Bears OG seemed to be showing signs of yellowing in the veins which I believe is a magnesium deficiency.
I was hitting really high humidities to the end of this week but its my fault for running a completely enclosed tent/space....the humidity got so bad I was having water droplets form on the inside of the tent where it was so cold on the outside...temps were fine just the humidities...i bought a small compact refrigerant dehumidifier to stick in the tent...i think from now on I will only be able to have 4 plants comfortably in the tent which kinda sucks but to get the conditions perfect its required :( Dropped the Humidity to around 55%...i cant control too accurately so will just have to keep it to around that for the time being...

@Ga4rd2en0er, ah thats spot on then, some dehumidifiers have a connection so you can run an additional pipe that can go straight to a drain or an even bigger resevoir/bucket...i use all my dehumidifier water to water my plants again which may be wrong but it has prevented salt buildups and its at a good PH as well...
definitely I had a 0.8x0.8m tent at first and 5 autos in there plus the dehumidifier wasnt pleasant to work in...thats why i upgraded to have a slightly larger tent just to fit it all in...its very compact and amazon.co.uk (if your in the UK) has one for £90 brand new at the moment :)

@CronxWarrior, great info. I usually spend about 2 hours a day at each grow I have going on so I don't mind a little extra work with emptying out. I've been looking on the second hand market and the size of your unit looks about the right size for my space. My 4 autos are taking up 90% of the floor space in the 1.2 x 1.2 x 2 meter tent I have. I'm coastal and humidity will avg 55 to 75% year round.

@Ga4rd2en0er, Hi matey, i bought a refrigerant based dehumidifier as the temperatures of the grow tent should be around 25-30°C depending...I keep my tent at around 28-29°C because I supplement with CO2 and was told you need higher temps to make it worth it...
If you keep your tent at a lower temperature then a desiccant dehumidifier is best but they are aimed at much lower temperatures at around 15°C...
I managed to find this Delonghi DEM10 for £50 second hand local to me...im not sure where you are based but if you can find any second hand refrigerant based dehumidifier local i would go with it...especially if its a good brand such as delonghi etc...also get one with a resevoir thats as big as possible, my dehumidifier only holds around 2.0L which has to be emptied every 2 days sometimes which can be a bit tedious!
