is this dehumidifier bad?
MrBz21started grow question 4y 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.

Brauche ich unbedingt einen (Schwenk-) Lüfter in meiner Growbox?Habt ihr schon mal ohne (Schwenk-) Ventilator in der Growbox angebaut? Wenn ja, welche Erfahrung habt ihr dabei gemacht? Ich möchte nur ungern einen Ventilator einsetzen, weil das vermutlich die Lautstärke der Box deutlich erhöht. Schon mal vielen Dank für eure Erfahrungen.Setup. Ventilation

Slowing a two speed inline fanCan I run a fan speed controller with a dual speed inline fan? My 4” two speed fan is slightly too powerful for my grow room. I’d like to slow the fan slightly but I have heard the these types of controllers don’t work with two speed fans? Any advice or what to buy to do the job?Setup. Ventilation

What temperature and humidity difference do you have in your tent and "lung room"?
Do you exhaust your air from the tent to the outside of your lung room?Setup. Ventilation

Do you think this is a better position for carbon filter so it can have better airflow or is it more important to scrub air from the top and have 2 90 degree bends?
I'll probably try this in my next grow.
Pic with drying plants is setup from before with 2 90 degree bends.Week 11

Mycelium or Fungus - Too much Part 2I am seeing a ton of mycelium on all of my autopots. Because I have a bottom feed system, it is hard to keep my top medium wet without getting mold. Is this going to effect my end result if I do not do anything about this? Should I leave it alone or put sand on it?

How to deal with high (80% ) humidity during flower without dehumidifiersFirst time grower,
I'm in W-Europe and will have around 21-27°C, 75-85%RH in my 70x70x160cm tent, Not more humid than air outside it.
Getting a dehumidifier isn't an option for me.
Any advice on how to still manage through mid to late flower from someone who's in the same boat?Setup. Ventilation
