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

it's getting too hot. I added 2 fans inside. Do you think I can enable them 100% of the time/all day? Or is it bad for my plants?

I am facing a temperature problem again....My tent reaches 84.2F, which is too hot in my opinion. But my humidity is perfect. On the other hand, if I activate the ventilation, the temperature of the tent reaches 76F, which is perfect, but the humidity level drops dramatically to 35%.

Risk of bud rot with these conditions?My tent keeps bouncing between 55-65% throughout the day during mid-late flower stage. Staying between 24-26 C. I have two fans moving air in the tent and the plants are we defoliated. An in-line fan is pulling air out. How much at risk am I for bud rot? Thanks!

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 work2 years ago

(MarsHydro) Anyone have experience with this combo?I'm thinking about upgrading my ultra cheap duct fan and carbon filter to this beauty.
It has a thermostat controller and is under 250€.
It seems to good to be true for this price.
Is anyone using it and give me a review?

How do I drop my RH down when nothing works? Check Diary. Will defoliation be a good idea? Open tent door and leave it open?My 2x2 is starting to crowd. This is driving the RH to over 70%. Should I defoliate to help with crowding and RH? Or should I just leave it alone? RH in lung room is 48% Exhaust fan, high or low with a dehumidifier, doesn't work. What should I do? Defoliate? Thanks! Check diary.
