Oh man.. 90 % RH is not good.. that 15c isn’t terrible. Can you get a dehumidifier? Or can you get a heater in there? Just a space heater in the area will pump the temp up and that in turn will drop that humidity a bit..
definitely gotta figure something out cuz thats way too high

This case I would try to introduce some heat into that tent. Should help dry things out a bit. If you can get it to around 20-23 degrees at night would be ok.
Or you add a dehumidifier. 90 is really high. You wanna be at like 45-55 RH.
Good luck friend 🤙

Humidity issues near floweringSo I installed an intraction (145 m3/h speed1) and aluminium foil on the pots but humidity is still hight like 75% when nightime and the lowest is 65%. Probably the water evaporates by the pots (drip, clay pebbles). I have no more ideas. Do I have to buy a deshumidifier? Thx !Week 6

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!Buds. Other

Air circulationI just added a ac unit inside the tent. I noticed that when closed its sucking the tent inward. Is this a problem. Or should I take my exhaust fan on the light and make it and I let fan? And how would that work with my filter in flower for smell?Week 3
