Fans on a heat switch
Chaweederstarted grow question 4 years ago
hey growers! I was wondering if anybody is using a type of switch that will activate a fan if cooling is needed? I wanna use this on my exhaust to avoid overheating when I'm not around. TIA

I use inkbird controllers for both humidity and temperature. they are currently £63.99 on amazon and automates the temp/humidity environment perfectly for me in a 1.2 x 1.2 x 2m black orchid tent. I am on my 1st grow and weeks in and have had no issues with these controllers. Fans/heater/humidifier's and de-humidifiers all run through the controllers so save a huge amount of messing around and helps in this summer heat for sure! just paste (Inkbird ITC-308 Digital Temperature Controller Heating and Cooling with IHC-200 Humidity Controller Humidifier and Dehumidifier) into amazon for both if needed :) good luck and hope we all have successful and happy grows!

You can get a temperature controller that will need a heating input and a cooling input. Eg. Heater and ac. Ideally you'd want your extraction fan to run constantly. 👍🌱

After all I want that air exchange to always be going to bring in fresh co2. I guess you could timer if your running co2 but if your not I don't see why you would other than to save a bit of power? Save some run time on fan? Happy growing!

How to reduce humidity in my grow space?I'm just an amateur and am growing in my closet as I have very limited space. It's a small space in which I can't cut holes or openings. I use a small fan and a air purifier. Should I get more fans? Does a carbon filter or inline duct help if it can't exit out of the closet?

High RH in flowerI find it really hard to keep the RH below 50%, especially at night when temps are low. I have a dehumidifier in the room where my tent is in but even when it's below 50% there, it still is above 50% in the tent itself. Can somebody explain this? Probably help me with a solution

Help with airflow. I've got an extractor and 3 circulating fans. Would a powerful inline fan be better than the 3 circulating fansQuestion about environment here.
I've got a 5x5 tent. Total 46m area.
460m3/hr needed to be extracted.
Extractor fan is capable of taking 600m3/hr.
I did have in an inline fan but it's no longer working. Do I need another inline fan ?? I've opened two ports for passive intakeSetup. Ventilation

Smell problemI have a small tent from airontek, not the best in quality with a carbon filter and extractor inside the box, but the smell outside is too strong.

Is high humidity at night bad for cannabis?During day, I can maintain the grow room temperature to 75-77'F and humidity 55-65%. But at night, temperature raised up to 77-80'F and humidity up to 70-80% because I closed vents and air condition. Could this effect my plants in long term? Should I open vents at night also?Setup.

High humidity in the morningI’m having a very hard time coping with humidity (goes up to 85%), since I physically cannot get the airflow outside my house for various reasons. I open the window each morning, but could it lead to rottening in the late stages of flowering? Thanks for your replies ;)Week 9
