if your tent is at least 180cm(5,9') in height there no point in topping an autoflower. Happy growing

I'm using LEDs for the first time and the humidity in the garden is often around 20-30%. Does anyone know a way to correct this. At the moment i just do foliar spay, but I'm not in the garden regularly.

I have nine plants grown from seed and one is behind in flowering. They are all in the same tent with the same nutrient. For a couple of weeks into 12/12 she showed no signs. Now she is flowering normally, just way behind the others in development. What gives?

I have my light dimmed down but also lower to get a lux reading around 25000. According to the HLG conversion calculator it's putting me around 364ppfd. Is this acceptable or is my light placement/setting going to affect my plant negatively?

Hi all. Looking for some ideas on where to hang my buds too dry b4 cure. I use the tent but I’ve got plants going straight in and some ready sooner than others. I have an attic but it’s usually over 25c. The wardrobe I think might be too humid. Smell Stealth reasonably important

Do you recommend some special aditive to start flushing or would pure water with controlled Ph do the job? Thanks for the help👍

How low is too low for humidity? The closet I have converted to become my grow room has been sitting naturally at around 30% humidity most of the time, and I worry that its too low. I am using a dome I made out of an old 2 liter bottle as a dome for now.
