If a dehumidifier is something that’s needed a lot for your grow I would not cheap out and get something small. Invest the money now to save yourself problems later on 👍

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!

Gathered a new tent temperature inside allows you to do without blowing. How much will affect a plant that grew without wind at all

Odour control
First indoor grow and is a stealth grow. I’m wondering if complete odour control is possible for one plant. One auto in the tent with a large carbon filter and appropriately size duct fan, walls are sucked in — I also have ona blocks to place around room during flower.

Controlling environment in closet with no intake fan?
I'm growing inside my closet, and I'm having trouble controlling temp/humidity. I have an AC Infinity exhaust fan and a cheap amazon fan + wet towel blowing air in from the outside. Are there any cost-effective ways for me to control this? It can get a little warm/dry sometimes

Best Humidifier for 3x3x2 grow tent and best way to set up?
I’m about to buy a dehumidifier. Finding one with programable humidity levels makes them too big 4 my tent & the small ones can’t be programmed to turn off when humidity is too low. Can I get a cheap one with no controls and manage humidity with my Humidistat alone? Will it work?

Sealed grow air scrub
After adding a dehumidifier, evaporative cooler and c02 bag I decided to go ahead and do a sealed grow to better control the environment. Conditions look great. I’d like to know if I can loop my exhaust to recirculate the air to scrub it when things get stank? Video on the diary

Yay, I ordered a growlight + tent + accessories! I'm planning to install all of this in my basement. I have a small window that I could use to send the filtered exhaust air to. but will it suffice to just get intake air from the basement itself? Or would I need an air purifier?

Intake Fans / Opening Lower Air Ducts or Back Flap?
I'm researching intake fans and/or opening lower ducts to pull air in. I never worried about intake in the past, I just made sure my fan up top was sucking air out of the tent to create negative pressure. Thoughts on intake fans or having the back flap of the tent open? Thanks!
