Reducing humidity hacks
Peggersstarted grow question 4 years ago
anyone know any tricks for reducing humidity? ive not got the space for a big decent dehumidifier. ive got a small 300ml per day one and a couple of disposable ones. I need more. tends to sit around 60 with the door closed. If I open the door it then drops to 52.

Your humidity is bang on, for flowering it could drop a bit but as long as your below 70% max you should be good..the Vapour Pressure Deficit or VPD is a good control strategy for regulating the growth rate of your plants.. it takes some time to master but definitely an asset to the growers knowledge toolbox..cheers

Smell at 2.5 weeks?Is it normal for a Quick One to smell strongly at 2.5 weeks? I only have one plant, and moved it out of my bedroom to the spare room where there are fewer clothes. My partner could smell it downstairs and the plant only just got its 5 tipped leaves.Setup. Ventilation

Carbon FilterHello growers!
I'm thinking of removing carbon filter's outter fabric.
It affects my exhaust dramatically.
Does anyone knows if this is going to make it insufficient or ruin it?
(i think that this layer prevents humidity entering carbon particles)

Also do I need to use the carbon filter the whole time?

Oscillating vs 2 non-isolating fans fan/CO2 filterMade a purchase for some clip on fans.. but they’ve arrived and are non-oscillatory. 😑😑😑

6" Fan in 3x3 TentI bought a 6" fan for a 3x3 Vivosun tent and I'm noticing a good mount of negative pressure even at the lowest setting. Do I need to get a 4" fan? There are some vents on bottom sides of the tent. Can I use those to lessen the pressure? Thanks!Setup. Ventilation

Temp tent issueNice! Thanks guys for the quick help! I’m also kinda sort of having a temp issue, I’m trying to make it the best I can, I’m way down south and the temp reads 86-88 a lot. If I blast the fans and humidifier it does get down but I’m worried about the electric bill going up.Week 1

AC/humidifierSo I did get a humidifier/AC. Super cheap, $40. It seems to work. I’ve gotten it at 79-82 degrees and 45-50% humidity. I just have to keep filling the water part up every couple hours but I work from home in my room where it’s in my closetWeek 1

So has anybody used these cordless mini dehumidifiers in their grow rooms? They’re small units that u charge over night every so often when the silica changes colour? My grow room is very small so an electric dehumidifier wouldn’t fit and I’m struggling to keep humidity downSetup. Ventilation
