How to prevent humidity spikes during dark periods

Heisenbud
Heisenbudstarted grow question 4 years ago
My humidity is still spiking during the dark period. Going from about 60% to 85%. I have 2 dehumidifiers in the tent connected to a controller and they don't seem to be putting a dent in the RH. Is there a better way to go about managing the humidity during dark periods? Thanks!

Hey! Just checked out your photos.. those little dehumidifiers don't do jack! I've had up to three in the tent and nothing.. I suggest you get rid of those, sell them, give them away whatever.. and buy yourself a decent dehumidifier that can get the job done with just one, look for a bigger with more capacity and watts. Other things you can do to control humidity is increase ventilation. That being adding more fans, stronger intake or extraction also helps. Don't water too much, don't leave water in the trays.. make sure there's the least trace of water behind as possible. Hope this helped. Good luck and happy growing!

More extraction if your fan is already at capacity I'd connect a humidistat to a second extraction system to move more air

Get u a little heater to put in there. Higher heat will lower the humidity. Cheers ✭ 💨✭
