I run one that blows over the top of the soil and another over the canopy. Don't see an issue with what you're doing

Peltier dehumidifier @300ml per day adequate for 3x3x6 tent? Alternatively, a conventional dehumidifier outside the tent?Peltier thermoelectric dehumidifiers extract 300ml of water per day. Weak compared to compresser units, small and use less energy. Is it enough?
Would a conventional dehumidifier set outside of the tent near the intake be effective, or does it need to be inside the tent to work3y ago

Maintaining VPDI've got my photoperiod doing well in a 2x2 tent. I'm trying to regulate my VPD with what I have on hand. Currently I'm running my exhaust fan for 8 minutes every hour to get an average VPD around 1, but I'm concerned about the swings. Am I micromanaging?Setup. Ventilation

FansDo you guys leave all of your fans on all the time? I do but I'm wondering if I should. My best fan is getting hot hot hot however, if I turn it off I'm afraid it'll be too hot in my room or the air will get stag.
What do you do? Rotate fans? Turn em off for a bit each day or?Week 10

Humidity won't go down because of clay pebbles ?Though my extractor is at high speed, I have a hard time with controlling humidity, I hardly go under 68%, specially during the night. Probably it's the clay pebbles since the pots don't have a lid. I placed the temp/humidity probe near the tallest leaves. what do you think ?4y ago
