Hi my grow tent is 25.c with 36% humidity I’m struggling to get 50% humidity I have a 8inc inlet fan and and a 12 inch outlet (I think) also I’ve put an electric heater on in there as I can’t get the temp up otherwise currently running two 600w lights.

2 x 600 = too hot tent

electric heater = overkill
all of these reduce humidity a lot.
You just have to water more frequently if there is low levels of humidity.Roots need water in cases like this,if leaves can't breath.Foliar spraying is an option too and will do favor.

Get a fan controllee for your exhaust and dial it down. Will help keep humidity in the tent. Or double up some humidifiers. They all look so dry and need that moisture! Also spray them with a mister every day to help them out! Hang a few wet towels inside can also help. But it sounds like your airflow through your area is just too much. 🤘😤

High humidity during floweringI don't have an exhaust fan since this is my first growth and I'm quite on a budget
my humidity averages around 65-75%
I know high humidity increases risk of mould and bud rot
is it necessary to get an exhaust fan and aiming for 40-50% or just risking the consequences?Week 9

How to vent grow tent?Venting into large basement area separate from lung room. Averaging 65% RH in tent. How can I vent my grow tent out a century old red brick home's original basement windows discretely? Or, can I vent into an old (capped) chimney without removing the cap? Lung room is 6x10.

Cardboard box method for dehumidifierHi 👋 can anyone tell me what success they’ve had using the cardboard box method for housing their dehumidifier? My unit is heating up inside the tent so much as it works harder during flower to keep humidity levels lower. Before I make the switch I wanted some opinions?Setup. Ventilation

RH too low in indoor grow. Solutions?I'm having a issue with my grow - RH won't go above 20%.
With a humidifier inside, full power. Temperatures are between 21 and 25c and I can only think the air extractor is taking too much air out of the grow, as in the night, with lights and fan off RH rise to +80%. Any ideas?Week 3

Brauche ich unbedingt einen (Schwenk-) Lüfter in meiner Growbox?Have you ever grown in the grow box without a (oscillating) fan? If so, what experience did you have with it? I really don't want to use a fan because it probably increases the noise level of the box significantly. Thanks a lot for your experiences!
