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.

What is your security/safety backup for fire hazard in case of exhaust system failure. (those Chinese fans you know they will break it is only a matter of time right?)

Grow tent climate control
Im looking for a product that will control the temperature inside my tent automatically. Something that I can plug a heater and ac into and it will turn them on and off to keep the temperature optimal. Im also looking for a product to do the same thing with humidity. Suggestions?

High humidity in the morning
I’m having a very hard time coping with humidity (goes up to 85%), since I physically cannot get the airflow outside my house for various reasons. I open the window each morning, but could it lead to rottening in the late stages of flowering? Thanks for your replies ;)

Grow tent Temperature
I have a 90cmx90cmx60cm grow tent with a VIPARSPECTRA 300W LED Grow Light inside.. How much will an extraction fan and carbon filter bring down the temp inside? In this heatwave my tent is running at 33 deg C, no plants seeded yet. Will the fan be enough or should I get a cooler?

Carbon filter effectiveness at harvest
Hey everyone, just wondering if carbon filters actually get rid of 100% of the smell from the harvest point while drying? I can’t smell anything outside the tent at the moment but my plants haven’t all bloomed fully and I need to be prepared, can’t have the neighbours smelling!

Best way to keep a tent in the loft cool
Cooling the loft... so I've got my tent in the loft, I have a 4" inline extracting from the tent and a 6" inline feeding air into the loft. This works perfectly the majority of the time.. I can keep things at 25°c with ease. But on hot days the tents gets too hot....

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?

Humidity vs airflow? 8 day seedling.
Humidity VS airflow for 8 day old seedling, which is more important? My seedling is in a propagator with 60-65% humidity. Outside the propagator is at around 40%. I'm waiting on my humidifier. I'm going to raise it with a wet towel and containers of water. Should she be in tent?

Carbon filter sleeve needed?
I use the carbon filter on the exhaust side. On the intake side, I have a dust screen mesh. The tent is quite clean so that’s why I don’t see the need of the pre filter. Would also probably load the inline fan a bit too. What’s you thought?
