What should i do to get Relative Humidity down? My RH is about 80% when the closet doors are closed and the lights are off. I have a fan blowing inside the closet 24/7. I also have a small dehumidifier inside of there. I cant manage to get RH down unless i open the doors.

Exactly what you said... you can't get the humidity down unless you open the doors... or get some sort of dehumidifier... or set-up an exhaust fan to bring humid air out and dry air in... they have fans that have humidistats and thermostats to turn the fan on and off when it's needed. Proper humidity is very important for a number of factors.
Too much humidity and you will possibly over feed your plants. Too little humidity and they can starve. The temperature is so important, too. Keep it dialed in to prevent mold and mildew.
The plants are sitting in a pot of regularly damp soil = humidity source + the plants suck water up through the roots and stems and release about 90% of it into the air = so much humidity you need to get rid of it on a constant basis... especially in flowering stages.
Good luck!😀

Oh yeah....this in an uninsulated basement that is a whore for humidity...I don't ever recommend growing in a basement. Get enough of those damp traps and boom. I'm pretty sure it's just silica but they work

You know those little packets from shoe boxes and stuff to keep things dry....well I use those. You can also buy these things called "damp trap" I get from Dollarama, I don't put them in the tent but outside of it. I can get my rh down to 40 without a dehumidifier 👊👍

If ur tent is on the cooler side it will cause the humidity to rise. U can put a small electric heater in ur room to raise the temp a little unless ur room is already warm. If that’s the case u will have to get an exhaust fan. Be careful u don’t want to get bud rot after all the time and effort u put into ur grow. Cheers ✭💨✭

hi,
you should place an air extractor. good dehumidifiers are big and rise a lot the temperature. extracting air is the best (and i think only in your case) way tu drop the rh.
cheers

About NutrientsHello, there are two issues I'm curious about. First of all, does A.N Revive benefit the plant during the transplant process? 👽
My other question is, do you prefer Carboload or Budcandy? Is there any extra benefit to using both together? 🙌Week 2

The question is as follows. I decided to flush with distilled water and citric acid. Is this ok or not a very good idea?
Thanks!Week 13

Soil problemsSo I have switched my grow medium to soil and perlite from Bat-special. I give my plants 2L of water every 4 days but the soil never holds the water as all of it comes out the bottom. is this normal? there is so much runoff. 2L of water shouldn't be pouring out a 25L pot.

Small EOL bananas, longer riping worth it?I've got some small bananas on my Euphoria from RQS (in my diary). I was close to harvest (probably in a few days). Do you think I can wait few more days for the trichomes to get more ripe without having to worry about pollination and microseeds? Just asking out of curiosity :)

Should I harvest in 2-3 weeks ?Hey, do you think my plants might be ready in two weeks ? They're autos in 7th week of their life. I know that 9 weeks is ok for most, but these should take approx. 11 weeks. Do you think one more week of feeding, then flush would be appropriate ? Trichomes are mostly milky white
