is this dehumidifier bad?
MrBz21
started grow question 5y ago
Hello! I'm just wondering if this sort of dehumidifier is somehow harmful to our plants. The fact it has a tablet and that it claims to remove 70% of smell let me suspicious.

Ya I would say this is a no go. Stick with normal dehumidifiers or if smell is an issue look up ona gel. Good temporary solution but works great.

Fan vs Fanless LEDs
How effective are heatsink LEDs? I'm not sure if I should go with fanless (like Mars Hydro SP150) or with a fan (Mars Pro II Epistar 120). I struggle with heat, when the tent is closed it gets to 29-30 degrees with humidifier in full swing (HID lights) and I want to close it soon

Autos week 3 veg but only 4 nodes – could humidity swings be the cause?
In a 60×60 cm grow box I’m using a single-membrane mist maker with an STC-3028 humidity controller. Even with the exhaust fan at the lowest speed, RH swings every 2–3 min (67%→63% in ~90s, then back in ~90s). Is this fluctuation OK? My plant has only 4 nodes in week 3 of veg.

My day temperature since turing my light up to max during flower are reaching 29-30c | 84.2 - 86f, while the daytime RH is at roughly 40% - 50%. Is the high temperature something to be concerned about? pics 1 and 2 are the exact same data as pics 3 and 4, just set to c/f each.
